Quick Review A collection of the most important and memorable tweets from our dear President compiled and annotated by Trevor Noah and The Daily Show.
Trevor Noah and The Daily Show compiled The Donald J. Trump Presidential Twitter Library is quite the reading experience. I imagined this book would be difficult for me to read because the sight of Darth Cheeto, oh sorry, I mean the President, makes me viciously nauseous. Somehow, I made it through. Probably because the sardonic commentation made the visual of President Dehydrated Carrot bearable for 144 pages.
Starting with a short passage by the courteous Trevor Noah, the foreword set the perfect tone for the pages following. Why John Meacham, the Pulitzer Prize winning presidential historian, agreed to write the tongue-in-cheek foreword is beyond me as much as it is beyond him, which he makes perfectly clear. I, personally, think Meacham’s contribution brings a certain scholarly something-something to the book.
The Donald J. Trump Presidential Twitter Library is the perfect coffee table book to let your friends, family, guests, and burglars know exactly how you feel about Tangerine Fuzz. The book is large with glossy pages. Tons of pictures and graphs and illustrations help reinforce the completely unbiased and scholarly opinions of The Daily Show. The book revolves around the tweets from the President himself. Between the unfortunate tweets there is commentary, backstory, and analysis upping the fun factor with a devastatingly sarcastic tone. Though, it cannot actually be called disrespectful.
Somehow, The Donald J. Trump Presidential Twitter Library makes the already ridiculous “man” look even more ridiculous, not possible, as ridiculous as he is. I highly suggest for anyone who is interested in an overview of the thousands of texts ranging from sad to racist to misogynistic to contradictory to inappropriate and everything in between.
