**The Battle Over the Library of Congress: Trump’s Challenge to Separation of Powers**
In a shocking turn of events that has left political analysts scratching their heads and librarians clutching their Dewey Decimal cards, former President Donald Trump has declared war on the Library of Congress. Yes, you heard it right—the Library of Congress, the hallowed institution where books go to collect dust and where the only thing more outdated than the encyclopedias is the concept of “quiet.”
In a press conference held in front of a stack of “How to Win Friends and Influence Books,” Trump proclaimed, “I’m going to take the Library of Congress and make it great again! We’re talking about the best books, folks. The best! I’ve read at least three of them, and they were tremendous. Tremendous!”
Sources close to the former president say he’s particularly upset about the library’s refusal to include his memoir, “The Art of the Deal: The Sequel,” which he claims is “the best book ever written, even better than the Bible.” When asked for a comment, librarian and self-proclaimed “Book Whisperer” Mildred P. Bookworm said, “We’re just trying to keep the peace here. The last thing we need is a Twitter war with a bunch of dusty old tomes.”
In a bizarre twist, Trump has proposed a new initiative called “Books for Trump,” where he plans to replace all existing literature with his own works, including a cookbook titled “Cooking with Trump: How to Make America Grate Again.” “It’s going to be huge,” he added, “and the recipes? They’re going to be the best. You won’t believe how many people are saying they love my meatloaf.”
Political experts are divided on the implications of this literary coup. “This is a clear challenge to the separation of powers,” said Dr. Ima Scholar, a political analyst at the University of Overreaction. “Next, he’ll want to take over the Smithsonian and replace the Hope Diamond with a giant gold statue of himself.”
As the battle rages on, one thing is clear: the Library of Congress may never be the same again. And if you’re looking for a good read, you might want to check out the clearance section—just in case they start stocking “Trump: The Complete Works.”
