I came across this
MAD Dumps On Trump: A Brilliant Look At Our Brainless President is an all-out comedy assault on the most idiotic idiot to ever reach the White House (George W. Bush and visitors included)! In these 128 pages, President Trump is mercilessly mocked, relentlessly ridiculed and savagely satirized. The book features MADs sharpest satiric shots at The Donald, comically chronicling his rise from obnoxious businessman to really obnoxious reality show host to uber obnoxious Commander-in-Tweet. Please note: MAD will not offer refunds on this book when Trump is impeached!
I am amazed that MAD Magazine is still around

(4,723 posts)It was one of my favorite things to read from about 6th grade thru 8th or 9th. They sold it at the convenience store near where i lived. This would have been about 1986-1988.

(7,396 posts)When my kids were in their adolescent years I bought a few "Mads" just to see if they liked it as much as I had. I was quite surprised how well "Mad" had aged, because they loved it.
'Cracked" was pretty good also, but not as good as 'Mad" IMHO.

So naturally that meant we'd buy it at the drugstore when walking home from school and read it on the sneak. I'm talking mid 60s here. MAD had some of the most hilarious cartoons I've ever read. Really funny stuff. I still remember laughing hysterically at some of the TV and movie satires ("Voyage To The Bottom of the Sea" became "Voyage to See What's On The Bottom", etc.). and Dave Berg's "The Lighter Side Of ....". They don't make em like that anymore!
