Great in audio, but I probably wouldn't have finished it in print. Borowitz is very funny, but sometimes his one-liners comes across as petulant rather than clever. But it's laugh-out-loud funny a lot of the time.

Humorous but still informative look at the history of modern politics.
Welcome to the Age of Ignorance
We are living — politically and culturally — in the Age of Ignorance, so named by Andy Borowitz, a guy who writes fake political news for laughs: We got here in three steps of ignorance: ridicule (back when a lie or a goof could end a political career), acceptance (when stupid became normalized) and celebration (when Donald Trump became president and we entered the hall of mirrors):
Borowitz gathered all the stupidest, funniest and just plain baffling things every president and Vice President has uttered since Ronald Reagan was president, book-ended with the most cutting, sarcastic commentary by cabinet members, journalists and other fellow travelers.
This book will make you laugh out load and shake your head until your eye teeth are loose. It will also depress you and make you supremely angry. It is Borowitz’s and my hope it will make you stop being a checkbook political hobbyist and do the work required to help save democracy.

It’s depressing reading about how ignorant politicians are. Funny but depressing.
