The 480 Tweets assembled in this book were selected by the Editor and are solely those of Donald J. Trump, currently the President of the United States. They are presented here word-for-word as he wrote them. Misspellings and punctuation errors are Mr. Trumps. Tweets are presented in specific categories as shown in the Table of Contents. Tweets longer than 280 characters are those continued in a second or third Tweet. Mr. Trump targeted many of the same individuals often retweeting an existing Tweet by changing a pejorative word (s) to reinforce his ire with that person along with other key words used over and over to make his point. Bold and underlined words within the Tweets are by the Editor to demonstrate this pattern.The Tweets are presented with no political intent other than to demonstrate how The President prefers to communicate, how he responds to those who disagree with him and his responses to his perceived political enemies. Some will find these Tweets amusing. Others may be dismayed that they were written by the President of the United States.

Full Disclosure I don't like Donald Trump I find him to be childish, racist, sexiest and he comes across as quite boorish as well as a liar. The Diarrhea Diaries by Robert Emery is a "greatest hits" of Trump's tweets which if you did not know he actually was a President of the United Staes of America, one would think Trump was a cartoon villain.
This wasn't for me but would still recommend to anyone at all interested in the truth.
Received a review copy from the BooksGoSocial and NetGalley. All thoughts are my own and in no way influenced by the aforementioned.
This is a funny idea, I don't follow trump on twitter, and this really is the 'greatest hits' I mean, all the tweets are the same, so why read hundreds a day, when you can just read this Diarrhea book, and get the general gist of it.
These are pretty much all political, but it's important to remember that trumps tweets are not limited to politics, It would have been funny to see the tweets against celebrities (although some Rosie and Danny Zucker are included) But remember when he was really upset about Kristen Stewart Cheating on Robert Pattinson, He addressed it multiple times.
It's all fun and games, but seeing the state the world is in, its also terrifying.
As expected this does not show the leader of the free world in a good light. If it wasn't so scary it would be funny but President Man-baby does not come out of this looking like anything but childish. Lots of name calling etc.
Also, the book repeated a few of the tweets several times so probably a book better for dipping in and out of with long breaks in between.
Full disclosure: I am not a fan of the current President. Secondary disclosure: that is perhaps the understatement of the year…but I was intrigued by the premise of Diarrhea Diaries: Trump’s Tweets That Give Us the Runs, edited by Robert J. Emery, who also writes novels under the name R.J. Eastwood. Mr. Emery is a screenwriter and…what? I’m not quite sure, but he has assembled 480 of DJT’s tweets and presented them as is, complete with misspellings, typos, and EXCESSIVE CAPITALIZATION, just as they first appeared on Twitter.
The topics are as expected, ranging from global warming to impeachment (personal opinion: hooray!), and the book even has headers created using a “newly created and downloadable font” called “Little Hands.” It’s truly a snapshot of the ramblings of a frighteningly deranged individual, and…I admit it, I didn’t read it all. I just couldn’t.
I’m giving it one star for effort and one star because it may introduce some people to the truly scary situation we are dealing with these days. Thanks to Books Go Social and NetGalley for providing this in return for my honest review.
