When America’s Founding Fathers return from heaven to celebrate the nation’s 250th birthday, President Trump welcomes them to the White House—while protestors flood the streets demanding “We Want Our History Back.”

As the United States approaches its 250th birthday on July 4th, 2026, National Archives Director Thomas Sowell makes an unusual plea: he asks heaven to send the Founding Fathers back to Earth for one more performance of America’s birth story.

To his astonishment, six Founding Fathers and one Founding Mother appear—disguised as actors for the Archives’ annual reenactment. Suddenly, George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, Mercy Otis Warren and their peers are thrust into 21st century Washington D.C., where culture wars rage and history itself hangs in the balance.

Their encounters with 21st Century Americans are hilarious—Ben Franklin is arrested for misgendering someone. Billy Lee, once Washington’s slave and military assistant, becomes a famous blogger. Jefferson meets one of his Hemings relatives, and Washington has his teeth fixed.

But it is their ongoing debate about whether this is the America they envisioned that gives the book its historic poignancy and its contemporary relevance.

As whispers spread online that these “actors” may in fact be heaven-sent, passion erupts on both sides of America’s political divide. Protestors shout, “We Want Our History Back.” Conservative admirers clamor for autographs. And when Hamilton tells his counterpart, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, that he believes President Trump is leading a second American Revolution—this time against Marxists and globalists who threaten national sovereignty—it becomes clear that the 47th president stands on the shoulders of these Founders.

Trump’s Superpower: A Historical Novel offers a provocative and often humorous collision of past and present, asking whether America is still the constitutional republic envisioned 250 years ago and concluding that it can be, if only we honor the debates and principles of our Founders.
