Trump plans first post-presidency book

Former President Trump plans his first post-presidency book — "Our Journey Together," featuring 300+ official White House photographs.

Don Jr. tells Axios: "My father picked every single photo in this book, wrote all the captions, including some by hand."

The coffee-table book includes Trump at the border wall and with Kim Jong-un, and behind-the-scenes family photos.

The book is from Winning Team Publishing — a venture formed by Don Jr. and Sergio Gor, with plans to publish more MAGA authors.

Trump's greatest joy was looking at swatches in order to choose the what was usually the tackiest option.

A giant crane with a huge American flag that looks like it's about to fall down and pummel the people under it In the background is a bunch of storm clouds that look like they're going to unleash Hell on the ones who don't get creamed by the falling crane.

Was this the rally where everyone was forced to stand for hours in the rain? Or, was it the one where they were bused out to some airport in the middle of nowhere, and forced to walk back for miles in sub-freezing temperatures? How mentally damaged does one have to be to continue worshiping that orange shitstain after that kind of shit, let alone after all the other damage he's done?

This book will be designed by a committee... ghostwritten by an unknown writer ... the photos have been taken (mostly) by White House photographers and perhaps some from network media releases. Chump will get all the credit, and he will have done none of the work.

Does any of this sound familiar?

I assume this is the only way he can get his message out there, save for carrier pigeons!

No one will want to play him in the movie.

Maybe a cartoon with himself doing the voice?
