Donald Trump falls asleep. At Cabinet meetings. At public ceremonies. At events held in his honor. In rooms full of aides, officials, and cameras pretending not to notice. The photographs exist. But nobody has ever asked the obvious question: What does he dream about? Perchance to Dream enters the sleeping mind of Donald J. Trump through twenty-five dreams, each beginning when his eyes close and ending before he has any idea where he has been. He searches China for the office collecting America's tariff money.
He tries to turn a simple game of Go Fish into a contest of power. He finds himself trapped on a gold toilet. He becomes Kristi Noem's dog at a very unfortunate moment. He is swallowed by a polar bear in Greenland. He shrinks smaller and smaller until the people around him can no longer hear him at all. Some dreams are absurd. Some are hilarious. Some lead him into darker places-where applause disappears, power means nothing, and the one thing he has spent a lifetime avoiding waits quietly for him. Five dreams include commentary from Dr.
Sigmund Freud, who has emerged from retirement to interpret the unconscious of a man who may be beyond interpretation. A political dreamscape unlike any other, Perchance to Dream asks a question nobody else thought to ask. Donald Trump is asleep. He has no idea we are here.
