In Thine Image
Satire Short StoryAfter the 2016 U.S. election, the first (and possibly only) one professional scam artist Donald Trump won, George Donnelly sent out a call for short parodies to make an anthology from on the then-popular selfpublisher forum Kboards.
I decided to go the absurdist route and so we find Trump at the end of his first term, preparing for the immediate future. After a globally successful first term, he has his eyes set on the next election. We find him look at the endeavour to change the world in his image, and now finally, he is ready for this next step.
The slightly exaggerated picture of Trump's ambitions and his view of himself was very fun to write, and as cathartic, just as George intended it to be.
