President hoisted on tax return petard in fascinating fiction by DC insider David Dorsen

David Dorsen’s new novel has captured the moment. He has created a convincing court proceeding in the era of Trump. It is sorely needed entertainment and puts Trump precisely where he should be”
— John Dean, former counsel to President Richard Nixon and CNN contributor
WASHINGTON DC, UNITED STATES , December 17, 2018 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Former Assistant Chief US Senate Watergate Committee counsel David Dorsen has veered from his scholarly non-fiction works to delve into a contemporary and witty fictional account of President Donald J Trump in his new novel Moses v Trump.

At the root of it is Trump’s illusive tax returns, a freelance writer for an alt-right publication who communicates directly with God, and a sensational libel case before a veteran Federal Court judge.

Moses v Trump opens with a New York federal judge mourning the death of his wife and wondering what direction his life will turn. That’s when the libel case (Moses v Trump) lands in his lap. Ira Moses is an older attorney who had represented a fired Trump cabinet appointee, and who won the case. However, a rightwing media outlet and Donald Trump accused Moses of bribing a juror.

Moses, his reputation in the balance, sued the President and the publication for libel. The various hurdles Dorsen’s federal judge character, Jay Jason, has in handling the case makes for a masterfully written courtroom drama.

“A brilliant, witty, page-turning political parody that reads like the evening news. David Dorsen drops a Trump card.”—Frank Serpico, retired New York City police detective, famous corruption fighter and subject of the movie Serpico

Moses v Trump is available now on Amazon and at bookstores everywhere.
