About this listen

In “the Trump satire we’ve been waiting for” (The Washington Post), award-winning and bestselling author of Thank You for Smoking delivers a hilarious and whipsmart fake memoir by Herb Nutterman—Donald Trump’s seventh chief of staff—who has written the ultimate tell-all about Trump and Russia.

Herb Nutterman never intended to become Donald Trump’s White House chief of staff. Herb served the Trump Organization for twenty-seven years, holding jobs in everything from a food and beverage manager at the Trump Magnifica to being the first general manager of the Trump Bloody Run Golf Course. And when his old boss asks “his favorite Jew” to take on the daunting role of chief of staff, Herb, spurred on by loyalty agrees.

But being the chief of staff is a lot different from being a former hospitality expert. Soon, Herb finds himself deeply involved in Russian intrigue, deflecting rumors about Mike Pence’s high school involvement in a Satanic cult, and leading President Trump’s reelection campaign.

What Nutterman experiences is outrageous, outlandish, and otherwise unbelievable—therefore making it a deadly accurate account of being the chief of staff during the Trump administration. With hilarious jabs at the biggest world leaders and Washington politics overall, Make Russia Great Again is a timely political satire from “one of the funniest writers in the English language” (Tom Wolfe).

Critic reviews

"Gibson Frazier narrates this political satire, which takes aim at the president of the United States and the workings of government writ large. Frazier, narrating as incarcerated Chief of Staff Herb Nutterman, manages to root this audiobook in a calm, almost placid, tone. As the insanity and political backstabbing spiral out of control, Frazier keeps calm. Because he makes this narration choice, the funny parts land even harder. It is almost as though Nutterman doesn't actually know what he is saying is funny or absurd. Shifting from one character to the next with ease, Frazier especially shines when he embodies the president and the story's huge cast of ne'er-do-wells. Political junkies will love this audiobook."

Loved this, and loved that whilst written by a Never Trumper he resists temptation to make Trump totally horrible. The sub-plot about a Pentagon secret weapon is very funny and almost worthy of a novel in itself. Much easier to enjoy given the election outcome!

Another Buckley cracker.

Definitely one of CB's best! The story and especially the American narrator's pitch, pace and voices are perfect (rare). A great laugh, hardly fiction!

Excellent
