Humor and satire have always been with us. I would not buy the book. But the meme was designed to create actions like yours. Most of us would never have heard of this otherwise. Why single out B & N , so many others also are selling the book.

BUY THE BOOK

IT was the OP that singled out B&N....I just responded. No matter who sells it, they will lose customers....a LOT of people like President Trump. Just plain basic logic is all.

The Mary Trump book should worry trumpsters more than a parody.

The abundance of disclosures demonstrating Trump's lack of moral character is taking a toll on his support. Only his hard core base (many on this site) remain. But they are a minority of the population and won't be able to steal another election.

Only about 30% of voters support trump and that number in now decreasing day by day for the first time.. seems something made it into the thick heads of his base and some have seen the light..

Hell no, I'm not okay with it. However, they lost me years ago, when they began drifting left. All the..let me rephrase that, it's almost impossible to get a pro_Trump book published or even a book if you're not a flaming lgbtq liberal.

You people play fast and easy with the word 'hate', which is entirely inappropriate.


I don't think so here toots. If it were simple newsletter that would be fast and loose, but a what was a national chain? BTW I think they've closed here too, Amazon was too much competition.

The real villain of Mary Trump's family tell-all isn't Donald...it is his brother (and her father) Fred, Jr. He was cut out of his father's will, and his family has been bitter about it ever since.

It is obvious that Mary is trying to sway the election in November. But why is she doing that now and not in 2016?? Something really smells here.

If You Give a Pig the White House: A Parody for Adults
by Faye Kanouse, Amy Zhing (Illustrations)

A coiffed and blustery pig has shoved his way into the White House! A cleverly worded and illustrated picture book, this is the adult parody of the beloved children's cautionary tale, If You Give a Pig a Pancake.

Watch in dismay as the presidential pig gets into trouble, binges on too much Fox News and fast food, and cavalierly threatens national security. If You Give a Pig ...more

Barnes & Noble isn’t selling “If You Give a Pig the White House” in its kids section

Viral image
stated on October 4, 2019 in a Facebook post:
Barnes & Noble and Target have the book "If You Give a Pig the White House" in their children’s sections.


Alex Ortani, director of corporate communications for Barnes & Noble, told us that the book is stocked in stores’ parody and humor section — not the children’s section, he said. On the Barnes & Noble website, the book’s title has been tweaked in the bookstore chain’s listing (emphasis ours): "If You Give a Pig the White House: A Parody for Adults."
Gee,,, i can only find a couple things to say abou... (show quote)


"It is only one more dumb orange inspired thing to drive the base up a tree.

It failed.

There are more than 30% of voters that show up at his rallies! Your "wishful thinking" numbers are so ridiculous, they make you look even more foolish than usual....check out this facebook page...

Ever hear a howler monkey? They can be heard for miles. Their anus' (no joke) are so bright that sometimes you have to wear sunglasses. I was on safari once when I had days off. The Kenyan porch monkey, I prefer golf bag barry it sounds better.
