15 Hilarious 'Trump A Novel' Tweets

by Kelly Tunney

The glorious end to this election is almost upon us. The candidates have campaigned and debated, and now there are only two weeks until the president is elected. Until the official end of the election season, it can be helpful for those drained by its seemingly never-ending scandals and attacks and horrific gaffes to have a bit of fun. If you had to sum up Donald Trump's campaign by creating a pun with a title of a book, which would you choose? That's exactly what happened when Twitter users made fun of Trump's campaign using #TrumpANovel.

The hashtag is a twist on #TrumpBookReport, which went viral last week, with users explaining classic stories as if they were Trump writing a book report. This time, users went after Trump for everything from his Access Hollywood tape scandal to his appearance, his comments about Mexicans and Muslims, and even his famous plan to build a border wall. The tweets are effective critiques of his views and platforms. They are truly a reminder of all that Trump stands for and why it's so important that he does not get elected.

Below, a compilation of the most clever tweets which both point out the depressing, bizarre, misogynistic, racist, and overall horrible things Trump has said and done during his run for president, but this time with a comedic twist.

1. War And Peace By Leo Tolstoy

Going after one of Trump's most-debated physical features.

2. Extremely Loud And Incredibly Close By Jonathan Safran Foer

Most likely going after Trump's disgusting comments about women.

3. Great Expectations By Charles Dickens

Not just great, but tremendous.

4. Pride And Prejudice By Jane Austen

Trump has made his views about Muslims very clear.

5. The Perks Of Being A Wallflower By Stephen Chbosky

Are there any perks of being incredibly insensitive to people? No.

6. The Grapes Of Wrath By John Steinbeck

Because it's just locker room talk, right?

7. Little Women By Louisa May Alcott

The "Nasty Woman" slogan has really taken off.

8. A Portrait Of An Artist As A Young Man By James Joyce

Possibly a clever comment on Trump's draft deferments.

9. The Art Of The Deal By Donald Trump And Tony Schwartz

One user even took a swing at Trump's own book.

10. How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days By Michele Alexander And Jeannie Long

Trump's tweeting, as well as various gaffes, have gotten him into hot water throughout his campaign.

11. A Series Of Unfortunate Events By Lemony Snicket

The popular young adult series is almost as dark as this election cycle.

12. How To Win Friends And Influence People By Dale Carnegie

A good summary of the election, overall.

13. To Kill A Mockingbird By Harper Lee

A reminder that when he feels threatened, Trump will sue.

14. Lord Of The Flies By William Golding

Even when confronted with facts, Trump is known to ignore them.

15. No Country For Old Men By Cormac McCarthy

The unfortunate state of our country.

Hopefully after Nov. 8 we'll be able to put this all behind us.
