AMERICA FIRST A Modern Fable: A Story About An American Civil War

On Election night, there is no clear winner, and the next day, even with 100% of the precincts reporting, the results are too close to call. This time the recount is in Ohio, and after several tedious weeks, The Supreme Court hands Ohio to the Democrats, thereby making the Republican incumbent a one-term President. A month later, the Congress, Cabinet and Supreme Court gather at the Capitol to hear the State of the Union. Only two of the nation's top leaders are not present, the newly appointed Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, James Jimmy Hunter who is attending his daughter's wedding, and the Secretary of Transportation, Clarence Wilson, the only Republican in the Cabinet. According to tradition, one cabinet member is left behind as a precaution for the continuity of government in the event of a disaster. Secretary Wilson thus escapes the fate of the rest of the Cabinet when a terrorist attack kills everyone at the Capitol, leaving him the new President of the United States. AMERICA FIRST is an action packed story of terrorism, treason, a Red State / Blue State civil war, and an investigation that leads into the highest political offices in the land. Originally written as a screenplay, on the morning of January 22, 2017, two days after Trump's Inauguration, Hollywood producer Ari Newman quickly adapted AMERICA FIRST. It became the first book to be both written and published after Donald Trump became President of the United States.
