A monster has appeared. Named for the landfill in Ohio from which it emerges, Rumpke is a thousand feet tall, has revolting personal habits, and might be vaguely familiar to readers, considering his orange-tinged hair and proportionally tiny hands. What do Americans do when such a creature appears, lumbers around at random, and occasionally defiles a local landmark? For millions, the choice is obvious – worship it.

Journalist Fred Millard is traveling alongside the creature and reporting on its exploits, as well as the strangeness – fandom, conspiracy theories, and more, that follows it. American Greatness distills the last eight years of American politics into a hideous, revolting thousand foot monster, tromping through the American heartland.
