Literary Characters Most Likely To Be MAGA

Friday, June 12, 2026 • Duration 42:24

We're snake drafting book characters who would most likely be MAGA. This is not fictional folks who would be Republicans. This is reserved for sloppy, ear-bandage-wearing, he-can-do-no-wrong MAGA supporters. And surprisingly, our books are full of them.

This is a an example of our premium content you can find on our Shelf Respect Patreon. *originaly published in October, 2025
