This book, The Trump Years - 2017, is the first book in the series, Shoot from the Hip. The book chronologically documents the Trump years during his presidency of the United States with the use of black and white cartoons. Book 1 begins depicting Trump's years as POTUS commencing January 5, 2017, and averages more than one cartoon per day with the total amount of 407 cartoons ending with the last cartoon on December 31, 2017. The characterizations depict in a satirical way Donald Jay Trump's actions, inactions, perceived thoughts, and observations. All the ideas for the cartoons are taken from mainstream media sources, like the New York Times, and are not Fake News. The intent of these portrayals of events during Donald Trump's tenure as President is very serious in nature although the cartoons may come across as tragically absurd. They are meant to provoke contemplation in a tragically humorous way. Themes like lying, denying, narcissism, blaming, racism, cronyism, misogynism, egocentrism, corruption, confrontation, idolatry, bigotry, hypocrisy, and others recur throughout The Apprentice's four-year tenure. The message of the cartoons is primary and the sketches are secondary because I am not an artist. Admitting this fact should not dissuade the prospective reader because these primitive caricatures convey the message in a poignant and appealing way.
