Produced by Tom Roe with many contributors.

Several Peter Serafinowicz readings of Donald Trump are included ("Sassy Loses His Mind In Alabama," "Sassy Trump To Visit Puerto Rico Maybe Next Tuesday," and "Archive Trump: The Puerto Rico Speech"). Music this week from Golden Earring ("Twilight Zone"); the West Side Story soundtrack ("Maria," "America," and "Cool"); The Replacements ("Take Me Down to the Hospital"); Elvis Costello ("Blame it on Cain"); Peter, Paul and Mary ("Leaving on a Jet Plane"). Sarah Huckabee Sanders; Alex Baldwin, Aidy Bryant, Michael Che, Colin Jost, and Melissa Villaseñor on "Saturday Night Live;" Anthony Atamanuik on "The President Show;" "The Late Show;" Stephen Colbert; Homer Simpson, Mr. Burns, and Smithers from "The Simpsons;" John Oliver from "Last Week Tonight;" Seth Meyers from "Late Night;" Mariana Atencio; Russel Honoré; Carmen Yulín Cruz; Joy Reid; Brian Williams; and Rachel Maddow. An original radio theatre show each week, with most sounds culled from the previous week, about a fictional, theatrical presidency. Contradictions tell the story, with songs, skits, and clips from political news shows and late-night comedy routines. The definition of "radio theatre" is stretched here, with an updated Dickie Goodman and/or Richard Foreman-meets-mashup style sometimes, and a more straightforward take other weeks. Currently, the network has ordered another 15 episodes, but there are threats of cancellation. Anyone who would like to contribute to the show, should contact info@wgxc.org.
