Aha, we finally got hold of the president in the switched body. I laughed reading this: "t every intersection, he looked left and right for evidence of civilization. Though he wasn't tired, he was famished. Finally, he saw a McDonald's restaurant. He was sorry that he had money only sufficient for a Big Mac meal, despite that it filled him to discomfort, he would have purchased another had he the PIN to the debit card.
". Thank you for sharing and good luck with your writings.

I am enjoying your creativity here, Wayne! Thanks for helping us dream / daydream of a better world with sane leaders.

Call Melana. (Melania) I had to chuckle that his first impulse was to ask them to call Ivanka, to whom he's much more attached than to his wife.

    Thank you very much. Throughout the writing I felt myself living in my alternate universe, greatly saddened to look up and see that it was fiction.

Lol. I had wondered how Trump was coping with being ordinary, and here it is. You've made his reactions and thoughts very real, and I have to admit to laughing at his discomfort and about his relationships with everyone he meets. Very imaginative!!!

    Thank you for your great review. Your catches are embarrassing. I guess I was just too taken in by the fiction.

The story gets interestinger and interestinger. Glad to see this installment concentrating on Phil Jansen's side of the story. Reminds me of the time I got trapped in Henny Youngman's body during a benefit. I got onstsage and my jokes were so bad, everyone thought I really was him!

Wow, your story is such a wild ride! I love how you captured the confusion and frustration of waking up in someone else's body. Trump's reactions had me hooked from the start. The little details like his disdain for generic snacks was so funny. The interaction with the police was hilarious and a little tense - I could really feel his growing panic. I can't wait to see what happens next!

    Thank you. This was so much fun to write that at the end of each writing episode, I look at the news and want to jump right back in!

A different perspective; very funny. We do what we can to survive these times and writing surely helps. I enjoyed the details and descriptions. The toothbrush detail and his eating were well written. Gee, why wouldn't Melania pay I wonder. Ha Ha

Thank you for the laughs,

Alex

This is well thought out. It could so easily turn into utter crap on toast. Do you have plot lines and all that stuff? I just sit down and write until I am done, or my behind goes totally numb. Good writing honeybunch. Karen

    I had most of it in my head, but 2/3 of the way through I made some notes just to make sure that the writing didn't control what was written. Sometimes characters think they are in charge.

    I would love for it to be published - even if my pants were sued off my butt and I spent the rest of my days in the calaboose.
    Thank you immensely for the great review and for the six stars!
