OK, story time, I guess?

When we moved into our home almost three years ago, we hired a handyman to help with a few things.

The first day he came by, he asked our backgrounds. When we told him, he said “Oh, that’s cool. I wrote a book about Trump.”

“Oh?,” I replied…

“… what’s it called?”

“Donald Trump is a Douchebag,” he answered.

I chuckled awkwardly at his his joke, which wasn’t hilarious, but his delivery was solid.

We (mostly he) changed some electrical outlets and (mostly) fixed a faucet.

He had to leave before finishing.

The next day, he returned.

And he handed me a book. “Here, this is for you.”

I was not expecting a book, to be honest.

The book was, in fact, titled “Donald Trump is a Douchebag.”

Not wanting to be rude, I flipped it open. He had inscribed it for us. In retrospect, the inscription was perhaps too optimistic.

There’s a table of contents.

This book makes some excellent points. (6/N)

And the sourcing is impeccable.

This fine work of nonfiction is available for purchase at Amazon dot com. amazon.com/Donald-Trump-D…

He never did get the faucet working quite right, but that’s ok.

Anyway, people keep asking what book I’m reading during quarantine. Now you know the answer.

PS I’m pretty sure he also gave us a Hersey’s Bar with a custom wrapper reading “Donald Trump is a Douchebag,” but it’s *possible* I’m making that up.

UPDATE: “Donald Trump is a Douchebag” is now ranked #7 on Amazon in the “Fascism (Books)” category.

Did we do that? amazon.com/Donald-Trump-D…
