Description
This is the paid version of the Trump parody book Donald the Pig Thought He Was a King. Both Fahrenheit and Celsius versions are included. This version is for those who enjoyed the book, understand the seriousness of the times, and wish to contribute.
As for the book itself, there are several enhancements that improve the pace and humor. The cover matches the eventual physical book’s cover–a ‘Donald the Pig’ bust with the full title of the book. In lieu of the ‘FREE VERSION’ text there is an image of a broken White House with an embedded ‘Thank You’ message for purchasing the book and contributing to the cause followed by unscathed founding documents (The Constitution and Declaration of Independence). Additionally, the 13th page is removed, leaving the story to stand on its own, without distractions. All of this creates a cleaner, more cohesive reading experience for people who want the book to remember these [insert your own adjective, here] times. Most importantly, at least 25% of profits go to help our fight against the rise of authoritarianism in the United States. The other 75% will go toward expanding Donald the Pig overseas. That way, if this escalates: we’ll have an apparatus–outside Trump’s immediate ability to control–that can continue the fight in a meaningful way. My son has informed me that pro-democracy Russian groups often have to secure services overseas. (Such as printing press materials, etc.) So we want to think ahead BEFORE this escalates. Hopefully, of course, it won’t escalate…but Old Man Canny told us that it’s better to be safe than sorry. We agree with our favorite character. Canada: you are certainly owed a grand apology for years to come! Our Canny character is our own way of trying to express that sentiment.
Additionally, anyone who spends any money on our website receives ‘voter’ rights. If this project is successful and we have significant funds to contribute, then we intend to offer a stipend to a professor who is knowledgeable about authoritarianism and who has good ideas to realistically fight it, considering whatever resources we will have at that time. Such a person will be best equipped to spend your money most effectively. This is far too serious to think we’re smarter than the experts, at this time in history.
Most people probably won’t care too much, but it is your money and our fate. So it is out of idealism, in essence, that this means something to us. If interested, you would spend a night or two on some kind of conferencing software (on your computer) listening to professors make a case for how they believe authoritarianism should be fought. After listening to all of them, you can ask questions and interact with them via the computer and then vote on who you think would be most effective.
Purchasing this digital edition is the best way you can help to get this project off the ground. Hopefully, you think the book is worth something on its own, but it’s true value lies in what it can do in the fight. It could make a huge difference in the courts, in the media, and in the social zeitgeist. THAT is what you truly are purchasing/contributing when you buy a copy.
You’ll know that you contributed to a sincere effort to counteract what’s going on in America and you’ll know that this imagery will be spread further to mitigate Trump’s dictatorial ambitions. Trump’s unfettered ego is annoying, but–by itself–it is inconsequential. It’s the guy’s unfettered ambition that is the issue because it seems his ambitions necessarily revolve around destruction and internal conflict of our political and social systems. It’s really disgraceful what he’s doing and we have to do everything we can, big and small, to prevent this country from becoming a fascistic dystopia. Now is the time. At some point, it will be too late.
If you enjoy the book and want to help, please consider purchasing/donating to our project. If enough people do, this small book project may significantly help to save our country from this shameful threat.
