Description:
While Mike and Kim get serious, B.D. goes back to Vietnam and runs into an old friend--or was that enemy? Duke helps Donald Trump with some real estate problems, and in Washington it's time for Clinton versus Dole. Life as usual on Planet Doonesbury. Trudeau has never allowed himself to be left behind by events, and this volume, which tackles everything from Bob Dole's desperate desire for victory to Donald Trump's desperate desire for more money, shows that he remains in tip-top satirical condition as "Doonesbury" prepares to enter its fourth decade. Once again, political commentary is expertly blended with the ongoing story of Mike, Mark, Zonker, and friends as they struggle with encroaching middle age, sexual orientation, and the generation gap.After Trudeau created the sequence about Donald Trump's aggressive attempts to grab property around his Atlantic City casino, "The Donald" said that "Trudeau is a jerk. A total loser. A pathetic moron. A third-rate talent." We'd guess that Mr. Trump is in a pretty small minority. --Simon Leake
