The 2016 Election Campaign has been a wildly crazy race, and since Donald Trump became the presumptive nominee things got even crazier, as Trump continued his tirades and insults, based judges, rivals, and opponents alike, and generally acted like a schoolyard bully in elementary school. Despite calls to act presidential, Trump has continued to mostly be the same old Trump, and the social media has erupted with all kinds of cartoon images of Trump in a rage and sometimes literally blowing his top. And social media wits have called him all kinds of names, from Dingleberry Don and Don the Demented to Trumpelthinskin. Meanwhile, psychologists and pundits have wondered about his sanity, describing him as a needy narcissist, sociopath, early stage Alzheimer's case, and generally just plain nuts. It is in this spirit that TRUMP IS NUTS! was born. All of these comments about whether Don was just acting as an entertainer continually seeking attention and admiration or whether he was truly a crazy nutcase led me to think about all the ways in which Trump might be nuts, and I teamed up again with the illustrator Nick Alexander who had worked with me on thinking of Trump as a series of extinct creatures and early humans, from the Trumposaurus and Saber Tooth Trump to the Neandertrum and Homo Trumpien. So what kind of nuts? Well there are Cashew Nut Trumps, Almond Nut Trumps, Pistachio Nut Trumps, and of course there are Mixed Up Trump Nuts and Trump Trail Nuts, as well as Nut Cases and Nut Trees. And just like there have been Trump Steaks and Trump Vodka, maybe a line of Trump Nuts will be next. So is Trump really nuts? Well, try sampling some of the Trump Nuts in this book and see.
