review:
'Mad about the Trump Era' by MAD Magazine takes a satirical look at President Trump's term in office. At 128 pages, it starts to grate after a while.

Trump makes himself an easy target for this sort of thing with his insane tweets, weird behavior and pompous attitude. MAD makes things even funnier by adding things like his funniest bathroom tweets and Melania paper dolls. Besides Trump, there are jabs at all other folks during this timeframe like Paul Manafort and Vladimir Putin. The book is divided into sections like Covfefe and Fake News.

These are all short gags and fake ads and a few of the famous page fold jokes. The problem is that news humor only lasts so long, and reading this in 2020 may have been my fault. I loved MAD magazine has a kid, and I still think they've got it, though.

I received a review copy of this ebook from DC Entertainment and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
