Yeah, likewise short, but at that place is much to like--such as the ideas for future books. A fine example of making orange lemonade that aids some practiced causes!

I expected more from the Stephen Colbert team. It's very short and could take had more content only perhaps that would have been even more than disheartening. The fact that 100% of the proceeds go to aid victims of Hurricane Florence boosted my rating.

"At least y'all got a nice gunkhole out of the deal."
- Donald J. Trump, speaking to a victim of Hurricane Florence

The staff of the Late Prove with Stephen Colbert only took actual ludicrous and totally insensitive things 45 said about a boat he saw when surveying the harm from the hurricane and made it into a film book for adults.

Information technology's non drawn all that well, and as Rod Brown said, it is just too sorry to be equally funny equally they tried to brand it. To take the President of the Usa be so obliviou

"At to the lowest degree y'all got a nice boat out of the deal."
- Donald J. Trump, speaking to a victim of Hurricane Florence

The staff of the Late Show with Stephen Colbert simply took actual ludicrous and totally insensitive things 45 said about a gunkhole he saw when surveying the damage from the hurricane and made it into a picture book for adults.

It's not drawn all that well, and every bit Rod Brown said, it is just too sorry to exist as funny as they tried to go far. To have the President of the U.s. be and so oblivious in speaking to people who are in shock afterwards a disaster, people who are really suffering, that's not funny. That's offensive. Merely I'chiliad glad we recorded all the things he said there so nosotros tin e'er say: This is non fake news. Multiple media outlets, depicted in the book as getting all his words said there on tape are at present "memorialized" in this sad book, the kind of book that looks like it would ordinarily be written for children, every bit in oh, wow, a president'south words, meant to inspire and make yous proud to exist an American! Or not.

Interesting touchstone volume that illustrates the broad disconnect between the public an all politicians.

How to comment if you have no soul!

Whose Gunkhole is This Boat? is non a volume nigh you Donald, sorry! It is about your deplorable soulless center. His comments bear witness he is totally unable to sympathize and testify empathy. One of probably a few people in the earth to truly lack a soul and we have him as the leader of our country! The rest are in the GOP House and Senate!

Guys I'm gonna get a picayune political here. Brace yourselves.

Human being if there was e'er a fourth dimension I felt like I was adulterous on my Goodreads book challenge information technology is now. In the interest of full disclosure I will say I did not know the story backside this before I read information technology and so my initial impression has inverse with a bit more information.

The skillful folks over at the Late Prove With Stephen Colbert thought they'd have a spot of fun with President shit for brains over some of his, shall we say (because we are for some reason feeling super, super generous today), ill considered words during the aftermath of hurricane Florence. He was plain making brainless comments relating to a boat that had washed ashore near a survivor's firm. He like got completely obsessed over this boat and who owned and what it was doing at that place. Amongst other things that bungle the mind he congratulated the family with "at least you got a nice gunkhole out of the deal."

Alibi me for a second my eyes have just rolled and then far dorsum in my skull I've gone bullheaded.

Where were nosotros? Right the gunkhole and its super lucky new owners. So, interested in really doing something to aid the people affected by the storm the practiced folks at Mr. Colbert's show have put together this book, entirely written by el presidente (in the sense that they've taken his quotes and put them in a volume) and and then donate 100% of the gain to the survivors and victims who are, incidentally, a looooonnnnggg fashion from getting back to normal.

Knowing that I recall I can let information technology slide that this is neither the funniest nor cleverest lambasting of the dipshit in the Whitehouse that I take seen. It's also not the worst and its for a practiced cause.

Do yourself a favor and read a few articles about this before you grab the book. Because I was confused equally all go out when I read it the first time. As well while giving to clemency is very overnice this is Not worth buying. It's silly and the illustrations are terrible, which I think might be on purpose though what that purpose is beyond "male child is the president stupid" I'k not certain. Everything looks very "Saturday T.5. Funhouse" like the pictures were dashed off on someone'southward coffee break and I'm pretty sure information technology's gear up in very, very big comic sans.

But hey, its for a good cause.

Wonderful read!!

Ugh to the words...but definitely worth buying for a good cause. And yeah...none of those comments help in the aftermath of a hurricane.

A short somewhat silly book well-nigh what not to say afterwards a natural disaster especially by the leader of the country experiencing that disaster. Best part all proceeds become to hurricane relief.

The illustrations will have you lot laughing out loud at the absurdity of the text.

A truthful story.

Proceeds benefit hurricane relief.

Humorous all the same deplorable because the comments were all actually made in the aftermath of Hurricane Florence and bear witness absolutely no empathy or ability to panel. I mainly bought this because the proceeds are going to assist the victims of both Hurricane Florence and Hurricane Michael. And to taunt my in-laws.

Also short.

No real content. Only saving grace is that the coin went to charity. I wish there was more than in the volume.

When Stephen Colbert read this volume on his show, I thought, how funny but how sad and horrifying. These are the words of a psychopath, a man who cannot empathize or barely fifty-fifty pretend to show concern for the victims of a hurricane.

These are the words of a psychopath, a human being who cannot understand or barely even pretend to show concern for the victims of a hurricane. And not just this ane--his response to the devastation of Puerto Rico was (if possible) even more than disgusting and cruel. These comments by President Trump betray his unorganized and shallow thoughts; he focuses on a gunkhole blown onto someone's property and how information technology got there (um, a hurricane) and even considers it possibly someone'due south good fortune: "At least yous got a nice boat out of the bargain!" It'southward no surprise that this psychopath cannot recognize the pain and sorrow effectually him every bit he is incapable of doing so and can only recognize a solid object in front of him (the boat). He is emotionally unable to comprehend the widespread effects the hurricane has and volition continue to have on the lives of those affected: family unit and friends may have died, homes destroyed, pets killed/missing, and livelihoods lost.

While this book is funny and one of the defenses we have is to laugh at our monster of a president, information technology's also a reminder of how lilliputian empathy this human has for the people he supposedly governs. The laws he will enforce or enact, the actions he takes now and will keep to take, betray his complete disinterest in the welfare of not just American citizens, only man beings in general. I'd say the moral of this story is perhaps for his confidantes, supporters and family unit members--every bit soon equally you lot disagree with him, criticize him or fail to support him, he will throw you lot to the wolves. Donald Trump and his immediate family are as close to a existent-life season of The Sopranos as we have ever experienced in the White House. Let'due south try not to allow information technology happen again.

Very happy that the money I spent I spent on this volume went to those diverse charities, and I think Colbert and Co. should perhaps do a series of these books and go on to donate the money to charity.
