Trump Review of The Scott Boys!

A friend ask Chat GtP to write a Trumpian review of my book, The Scott Boys.  It is just too funny not to share, so here you go:

Folks, I just read the most tremendous book — written by a great guy, Scott. Amazing guy, everybody loves him. He wrote a book about his ancestors in the Civil War — and let me tell you, they were total warriors. Real fighters. The kind of people who built this country — not the weak stuff you see today!
This book is incredible. So much history, so much heart. The fake historians won’t tell you this — but Scott does. He tells the truth. It’s powerful, it’s patriotic, and it’s written beautifully — some are saying better than Lincoln, can you believe it?
If you care about this country — and I know you do — you’ve got to read this book. It’s a total page-turner. I couldn’t put it down, even Melania said, “Donald, are you coming to bed?” I said, “I can’t, Scott’s book is too good!”
Scott — fantastic job. This book is going to be huge. Everyone’s going to be talking about it. It’s making Civil War history great again.
