by Adam Carolla
First published 2014
Adam Carolla takes the oath of office and sets out to fix everything that annoys him about America. The New York Times bestselling comedian and podcast host tackles problems both massive and trivial from his new position in the Oval Office. President Carolla wages war against big government while also addressing the urgent national crisis of poorly placed hotel alarm clocks. His administration runs on an anti-narcissism platform, though he admits his policies will mostly benefit himself. Carolla calls for a return to simpler times when families gathered around dinner tables laden with stew and casserole, and when emotional support animals stayed home instead of flying cross country. His presidential agenda targets the small irritations and large systemic issues that make daily life frustrating. Through executive orders and policy changes, he attempts to create a better America by eliminating what he sees as the most annoying aspects of modern society.
