MAD Magazine Makes America Dumb Again with MAD Dumps on Trump

Satire may seem superfluous in an election cycle mired with media-bating buffoonery, cartoonish-if-it-wasn’t-so-scary evil and a GOP that seems intent on parodying itself, but you can’t keep a good MAD down. Founded by legendary cartoonist Harvey Kurtzman and publisher William Gaines in 1952, MAD Magazine has taken potshots at anyone and everyone on the public stage for over half a century, and grand old huckster Donald Trump is no exception. From his days storming through the boardroom of The Apprentice to the current is-this-really-happening GOP National Convention, MAD had dumped on Trump, and now the magazine has collected the best (worst?) of its Trump material into a free ebook, appropriately titled MAD Dumps on Trump.
