- Summary
- "One of our most beloved comedians takes on our least-beloved President--star of The View Joy Behar hits Trump where it hurts the most in this hilarious alphabetical guide to everything that's wrong with the Orange One"--
- "The brilliant and outspoken star of The View--and one of our most beloved comedians--hits the most unpopular president ever elected where it hurts (and makes us laugh and cheer) in this hilarious alphabetical guide to everything that's wrong with the "Orange One," Donald Trump. Put down the Valium, get out of bed: Joy Behar is here to save you from self-harm as she hot-walks you through the Trump presidency. On her hit ABC daytime show, The View, Joy has been blunt in her condemnation of the comb-over-in-chief, and her words have electrified and inspired millions in the resistance for whom #notmypresident has become a rallying cry. So putting aside despair, Joy's response is one that will cheer the hearts of Never Trumpers everywhere, because the only sane reaction to the insanity in the White House is laughter. The Great Gasbag is Joy's satirical answer to the hell that is the Trump Grange House. Structured as an A-to-Z guide (A is for Alternative Facts; B is for Bigly, C is for Con man; etc.), the book offers much-needed doses of levity for everyone determined to #resist. Taking on the bloviated bumpkin from every conceivable angle, Joy puts Trump in his gold-plated place, making us laugh as she dissects the worst president since ever. Funny, caustic, and a call to arms for anyone who's had enough of living in Trumpland, The Great Gasbag is the only study guide you'll ever need to survive Donald and his world."--Dust jacket flap.
- Besides despair, the sane response to the insanity in the White House is laughter. Behar walks readers through the next four years (maybe less if liberal dreams come true) of life under the Trump presidency. Structured as an A-Z guide, Behar offers doses of levity and humor as she takes on the worst president since... well, since ever.
