Wow. That was crazy which I know is what you were going for. My favorite: Carve baseball stitching on the potato. Weirdly, I could hear Trump's voice as I read some of those tangents.

Suggestion to consider:
I looked around at them. Maybe switch out looked for a stronger verb.

I wonder how much the people around Trump will let things slide, so they can keep him in power and, therefore, keep their power. Unfortunately, both sides play that game.

Looking forward to whatever crazy you bring, Wayne.

    Other side can their own book!
    But maybe the after story part could address that. Thank you.
    And thank you for all your support and help.

He's doing a good job of acting crazy. The difference between him and Trump is I doubt if he is acting and the people around him try to act if he is perfectly sane. I wish someone would really come up with a plan to get him out before he does more damage

    You don't think my plan will work? (smiley face here)
    Trump has already committed impeachable offenses, but the Rs will never do it.
    Thank you for your very nice review.

Oh my goodness! This sounds as crazy as it gets and I'm sure the entire staff is going nuts with the strange orders and the reversal of orders. But I like the creation of the "my precious" ring. That should be interesting!

I am exhausted from the back and forth. If trump is really like that, why on earth has he not been sent to the rubber room? Fear of the vice president I guess. Karen

    Yup
    And fear of retaliation if a knock-out punch doesn't knock him out.
    Thanks for the review.
    Hang on. It's almost over.

    Say it ain't so. What's next? The secret life of Chuck Norris and his secret kink of loving to wear women's lace thongs? I'd read that! :-)

    No, that would be too hard to clean. I thought at first that why in the world would I want underwear that directly goes to wear I am pulling all my underwear out of? But, my husband bought me a couple, and they were comfortable. Odd. Now, it would be like slapping lipstick on a pig, but ah, youth! Karen

Every kid that lives in this country should visit Disneyland or Disney World. Now I know why the Trump children are so mucked up, lol!

As ridiculous as what Phil says and does as Trump is, it is no stranger than what the real Trump says and does. Except Trump 2.0 seems less out of touch and more purposeful and evil.

I'm expecting a fairy tale ending, Wayne:-)

I enjoyed the humour here again, as the "President" tries to cover any signs of not knowing what is happening or who people are by characteristic ineptitudes. Well done. Another fine chapter as they manage to delay the switch back to reality a little longer.

This work has reached the exceptional level

You have done an amazing job of making the President look like he is mentally disturbed. Very creative work and quite amusing. The staff at Mir-a-lago can vouch for his mental instability. If they can only keep the gig going until they have a decent Vice President, this will all work out to the benefit of the American people.

    Thank you. I wish I could live in my alternate reality.
reply by Carol Hillebrenner on 22-Mar-2025
    I think an alternate reality would be interesting as long as I am anchored to this one.

I had a blast reading your story! The humor was sharp as usual. I loved the absurdity of the Disneyland idea! And the way every request became a test for those around him. I was hooked the whole way through. You really nailed the voice and mannerisms making it feel real. Great work!

You've been busy writing .Another double chapter! It appears your tale has been well thought out. The incident with the cheese reminded me of the time I was drawn into another dimension wherein cheese-beings ruled the realm. The hole in my head (suffered when I accidentally walked into a jai alai court) confused the denizens enough to think I was a swiss cheese. I messed up when the Big Cheese asked me what I wanted for lunch and I said, "A grilled cheese". Thankfully, I popped back again into our dimension.

    Popped back right in the nick of time, I hope.

I really enjoyed this chapter. It's funny seeing the interactions with the staff and the the fantastic personalities. Your humor shines through! I could really picture the scenes you described. Keep up the great work, I'm looking forward to what comes next!
