I am really enjoying your work on this, you just can't keep it crazy enough. Today Trump wants to give most of Ukraine to Russia because Ukraine started the war, and he hates NATO and wants it dead.

    Thank you. When I wrote this I wanted to stay in my world, not come back out to reality.

Hi Wayne,
You have an interesting book going here. You use the literary theme of switching places to show what another person would do in the place of Trump if they could. Your narrative is very convincing and entertaining.

Great job,
Rhonda

Phil as trump, figures out Tom is a space alien that did the switch later, doesn't he? And tell us that trump as Phil gets beat up in jail when he runs his mouth and succumbs to lethal injuries. right? Karen

    Laughin' here, Boss!
    Your ending is better than mine, although I think you will be pleased.

    Well, I am sure yours is good. It has been so far. Karen

This work has reached the exceptional level

Your story continues in a logical, illogical manner that perfectly suits the theme. I disagree with the orange spray episode, however. I once morphed into Osgood, the purple-haired clown from the local Hungarian Social Club. Imagine my surprise when I discerned that was his actual hair. I had to twist a hundred and fifty various colored balloons into zoo animals before our bodies switched back.

    LOLing! (That's how everyone but old codgers like you and I laugh.)
    Thank you for your fun review and for the six stars!

It's quite a balancing act, trying to llok and sound like Trump but at the same time put a halt to what he's doing and undoing. Your writing is doing well to get that balance. Wish Phil J could work his magic in real life! It won't be long before T wants Australia to be part of the US - or he will insist on expanding his empire over here.

    52nd state.
    What a baffoon!
    Thank you for your very nice review.

    He is beyond ridiculous There are very few here who think much of him (unfortunately the leader of the opposition who may well become Prime Minister is a fan - he has adopted many of the same ideas, thinks it proves him tough.

    Too many right-wingers are such bullies.

Your chapter pulls me right. The dialogue is excellent. The scene with the poisoned butter was especially intense. And that speech at the U.N. was so well done. Your writing keeps me hooked. I can't wait to see how this all plays out!

    It was hard not to go overboard writing this, correcting all Trump's errors and creating an incredibly perfect world.

Ha, ha, ha another amazing chapter and just imagine if it was for real:) Liked this part: ""Career bureaucrats. Nobody gets fired. They're just doing their jobs. They worked for me four years ago. It's not their fault that the team changes colors every four years. You can move people around, but nobody gets sent off to Nome or Siberia." I shot everybody the felonious glare. They got it." Thank you for sharing.

    Thank you.
    And by contrast, look what's happening today. Officials not fired (without cause) are resigning in protest. We will soon lose our expertise and Humpty will not be puttable together again - just what MAGA wants.

Glad the "possessed" Trump is making some sane changes and that Tom is so alert so that he protects from these various assaults. I guess it was like that when there were other tyrants in charge like kings and caesars. Someone needed to watch out for food poisoning etc. But the underwear thing is new to our times!

    underwear - Thanks to Putin.
    Thank you for your very nice review.
    Phil has to draw a fine line between doing the right thing and letting Trump be trump enough to influence the next election (he thinks)
