Reddit reviews Marlon Bundo's Day in the Life of the Vice President

Charlotte Pence wrote a book, Marlon Bundo's Day in the Life of the Vice President, a book aimed at children that is illustrated and told from the perspective of Marlon Bundo, the family's pet bunny rabbit that has been selling quite well based on Amazon's Best Seller's list.

Another book, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver Presents a Day in the Life of Marlon Bundo (written by Jill Twiss) is a similarly styled book meant as a parody of the former, but still ostensibly a children's book (includes tongue in cheek lines indirectly referencing gay marriage). Humorously, it very quickly began to outsell the former book.

On Fox Business, Charlotte Pence and her mother were interviewed about the book. Near the end, she was asked how she felt about John Oliver's parody:

>“I mean, I think you know, imitation is the most sincere form of flattery in a way,” Charlotte said. “But also, in all seriousness, his book is contributing to charities that I think we can all get behind. We have two books giving to charities that are about bunnies so I’m all for it really.”

I felt that this was a refreshingly classy, non-partisan perspective to have.

Mike Pence's daughter has a bunny and it seems that Charlotte Pence made an Instagram for him, calling him the Buns of the United States. She loves him so much, and she made a children's book about him as a day in the life of the BOTUS. The proceeds go to a nonprofit to stop human trafficking.

John Oliver (political talk show host) decided that despite the fact that Pence's daughter is relatively apolitical (I suppose as much as you can be when your dad is the Vice President), he was going to take the opportunity to try to ridicule Pence. He released a book about Marlon Bundo being gay and all the proceeds go to an LGBTQ+ non-profit the day before the release of Marlon's actual book.

At first I thought it was really funny but now I think it's really mean because he's not taking bunnies seriously at all, and that seems to be the primary reason Charlotte Pence wrote it :( but at the very least, it's exposing people to how great house rabbits are. They're helping to show that all bunnies do have a lot of personality if you give them love and attention as you raise them, and that they can be active parts of the family! I personally do not share many of vice president Pence's views but think what Charlotte and Karen Pence did is lovely.

I think it's really great that Marlon is getting this exposure because people just scrolling through the Instagram get to see what house rabbits are like :) As we all know there's a HUGE problem with people buying pet rabbits for Easter, and the majority of them not resulting in happy endings. The timing of the book couldn't be better!! And check this out!

What Marlon Bundo has to say on the topic - "Not gonna lie, I do look pretty fly in a bow tie. The only thing better than one bunny book for charity is... TWO bunny books for charity. #BOTUS"

Oddly enough, Charlotte and Karen Pence have a bunny-themed book coming out as well.
