Comment from Wendy G
I am not totally familiar with some of those people mentioned, but he (Trump) is really becoming more and more ridiculous. Accusing Zelensky of being a dictator ? Of starting the war? Peace talks without both parties present? Unbelievable.
Trump being called a king? Lies being represented as truth and vice versa. All power being held by a tiny group of mega rich who seem to have little idea of the impact of what they are doing eg re tariffs? He is creating chaos.
Your writing would be humorous but it's too close to the truth of all their floundering. It's very well written. Can he undo all the chaos before he changes back? Unlikely, unfortunately. It's all unravelling too fast.
The rest of the world looks on, appalled. Are the republican voters happy with the direction all this is going? Or do they just submit because they have to say the right thing and not displease him? Surely they can't all be so gullible as to believe the nonsense he spouts?
Keep Phil J going, in Trump's body, as long as possible.

Thank you so very much. Your encouraging words mean a lot. I entered the first chapter in a contest that was extended 3X. In that Time, Trump got far ahead of my posts (which I advanced to every 2 days) The delay made it hard to stay relevant.
The Rs who like what Trump (and Musk) are doing are looking for the tax advantages for themselves. There are also those who want the Government to stop regulations and allow them to exploit others or the planet. Then there are the ignorant people who enjoy the concept of 'shaking things up'. They don't even really follow the news, or they only watch propaganda news that does not inform. The true-
believing MAGAs can be compared (I think) to Brexit.
My story will have some tension, I'm afraid.
Thanks again.

All this in just a month or so. It will be a LOOOONg four years!

Our disease control center has been for intents and purposes destroyed, including those who put together every year's flu vacine combo. Musk fired the people responsible for very important nuclear stuff (he scrambled and brought them back). He fired the tax agents who were going after tax cheats. It goes on and on.

How shocking. It’s quite unbelievable. But trump himself found ways to cheat on his tax returns. He doesn’t have the country’s interest at heart when he doesn’t contribute what he owes, towards its infrastructure etc.

an evil man.
I truly believe he is greatly flawed.
It's the sycophants that are most worrisome, those who support him for personal favor
Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
This is a really amusing take on an effort to discredit Trump and straighten out some of his worse errors. Hopefully he gets rid of the VP as well before fate shifts him back into his own body.

Thank you for your support.
I'm afraid there will be some tension in the story. (smiley face here)

Wow, Wayne.
This popped up on my read-next selection and so I dug in and, well. I love the premise, the good old trope of the body swap but with politics abundantly to the fore. lordy indeed, what I could do were I Phil.
This is great fun, keep it up.

It's hard for me not to stay in that world.
Thank you for your great review.

If only this was true. What a story. Are you donating your brain to science? I am donating everything. They can use me for the body farm if they want too. Karen :-)

While writing this, I really did not want to leave my world. I'm posting every 2 days because Trump and Elon, followed by all the butt-sucking cowardly R's in Congress are moving faster than the speed of sanity.

Comment from lyenochka
I hope he won't be found out until all the bad changes are undone. Ending the relationship with Putin is definitely a plus. I can't understand why Trump supporters can't see how dangerous that chumminess with Putin is.
You probably fixed the title from "Sat" to "Say"

Thank you. Trump's bent toward dictatorships, particularly Putin is astoundingly transparent, Senators who just a short time ago would have stood up, are now trembling.
Comment from Michael Ludwinder
This chapter was a wild ride! Your dialogue feels real. That scene with the phone call to Putin was perfect. I could feel the tension. Your writing has a perfect balance of intelligence and entertainment. Can't wait to see what happens next!
