Notă biografică
Duke Wallace writes in that time-honored tradition of political satirists that reaches as far back in American history as the Revolutionary War period. Tom Paine, Ben Franklin, and their contemporaries used creatively-signed epistles to stir sentiment in favor of home rule. Wallace is both a former Marine and a one-time Republican political operative. Besides, he is a lifelong student of American history. If Mr. Wallace considers the value of his fully-attached neck a higher value than fleeting fame, who are we to cast the first stone? Just the sort of fellow to be aware that he’s inside the caldera of a volcano when visiting Yellowstone National Park, Mr. Wallace lives with his wife and dog in a domicile near the Main Street of a small Midwestern town. Rumors that he and the Mrs. share a weekly canasta evening with the Mittys are unfounded.

From the Preface:
"Public discourse was once the sovereign domain of well-educated, reasonable men and women. No longer. Today, some of our would-be statesmen behave like circus clowns, vying amongst one another to act in a most uncivil and certainly unadult manner in order to secure coveted moments on camera. Apparently, they think we are all as vapid as those Roman citizens of old who could be enticed to vote for any whelp, provided they were given the day off, a hot roll, and a good show. I trust that you have a bit more sense in your head than all that. If you’ve purchased this book, then I must be right. Redemption is only nine chapters away." © May not be used without permission.

Recenzii
“Eyebrow-raising political satire at its finest, President Trump Sells California is an over-the-top outrageous projection written by a former Republican political operative. Donald Trump is not the only public figure to be lampooned; also present are real, fictitious, and surreal personalities, such as “Speaker Walkallover”, a former Wisconsin governor proud of defunding his own state’s university. No joke is left unturned in this laugh-out-loud comedy of errors!”
“Bravo! Now this is a book I can relate to! Wait ’til I tell my friends!”
“I laughed ’til my sides split!”
“THIS is my idea of public discourse. I highly recommend you read this book aloud to your loved ones. It’s only flaw? It can’t be sung!”
