Kash Patel’s Maga kids’ book is embarrassing. I should know – I’m a children’s author

The Plot Against the King, a thinly veiled take on the stolen' 2020 election, has a few hits and lots of misses

You don't have to agree with someone's politics to appreciate their writing. Roald Dahl was a terrible, antisemitic man, but he came up with a story about four grandparents who stay in bed 24/7 that gives us all something to aspire to.

So I was intrigued to find out that Donald Trump's choice for FBI director, Kash Patel, wrote a trilogy of thinly veiled political children's books called The Plot Against the King. The King is - you guessed it - Trump. And the plot? Well, we'll get there.
