Publisher's Synopsis

What if there's a hidden dimension to Donald Trump; a sensitive, poetic side? Driven by this question, Rob Sears began combing Trump's words for signs of poetry.

What he found was a revelation. By simply taking the poetic POTUS' tweets and transcripts, cutting them up and reordering them, Sears unearthed a trove of beautiful verse that was just waiting to be discovered.

This groundbreaking collection gives readers a glimpse of Trump's innermost thoughts and feelings on everything from the nature of truth, to what he hates about Mike Pence and Nancy Pelosi. And it will reveal a hitherto hidden Donald, who may surprise and delight both students and critics alike.

Now with all-new poems! As we lurch deeper into life post-Trump and the impeachment era, this timely publication also includes Sears' scholarly footnotes and introduction, in which he excavates new critical angles and insights into the Poet-in-Chief's work which the casual reader might initially overlook.
