Bookworm Corner: Newt Gingrich's "Treason"

Fiction lovers rejoice!  It seems serial adulterer and neo- fascist ninny Donald "Rump" Trump surrogate Newt "Poot" Gingrich has a new vanity novel out called "Treason." Since Poot isn't known for subtlety, it's not a shock that a main character is a "ditsy" female President (surprisingly not named Killary Hinton) that he's carried over from his last dud piece of work. To save you the trouble of deciding whether to buy this future cult classic, we're providing excepts from a review by Richard Lipez at the Washington Post (rim shots not provided):

-- One thing can be said for this topical thriller written by former House speaker Newt Gingrich: It’s not quite the lardy snooze-fest its prequel was.

-- To say that the characters in this dud of a novel are cardboard would be an insult to boxes. 

-- There is little actual sex in “Treason,” and what’s there is embarrassing. One character asks another, “Have you bedded her yet?” Bedded! Has anybody in real life ever actually used that term?  [Ed. note: perhaps it's Gingrich's form of locker room talk.]

-- As for the element of suspense, I figured out who the spy was in fewer than 100 pages and read on to write this review and out of mild curiosity. If you are a fan of the publishing arm of the Newt Political-Industrial Complex and wish to help place “Treason” on the bestseller lists, go ahead, but do not expect any surprises — or any good fiction writing. 

We think that's enough of a taste.
