Satire at its finest..."The Captain and the Glory"

This quick read by Dave Eggers is worth the time. Humorous, depressing and a small light at the end of a dark tunnel.

Which, you know, would have been handy to know, for what "a quick read" means. They could even have said it's about Trump.

FFS, people should give a link or description of what they're suggesting. Why should hundreds of thread readers google something, when the one person who has already decided it's worthwhile could do it once for all of us?
