I wonder who wrote this one?

thehatter · September 21, 2015, 4:59pm

and on a related note… I wonder if The Donald has actually read it?

k_in_va · September 21, 2015, 5:09pm

So has the whole campaign thingie just been a pre-publication book-sellng tour?

jaybeeraybee · September 21, 2015, 5:12pm

Yes it’s a guaranteed best seller, considering he knows exactly how to game the ‘Best Seller’ system, and has staff on payroll to do just that.

One more step in The Donald’s 2016 Marketing Campaign.

Oh s**t, that’s what he’s up to.

manhattan123 · September 21, 2015, 5:26pm

It’s now the third best book ever. After The Art of the Deal and…hmm, what was the other one…oh, yeah, the Bible.

theghostofeustacetilley · September 21, 2015, 5:29pm

In all fairness, the Bible’s numbers are propped up by questionable bulk sales. God’s been gaming the system for years.

348 pages, a six page intro, a first chapter that talks about how great tRump is, a chapter on how rich tRump is, 327 pages of “Mr. tRump’s plan will be Y-U-U-U-U-U-G-E” followed by “details” of how he will hire the best people to implement his fantastic plan which will work like a charm but other than that no real details, followed by four pages predicting tRump will be the next President, King and ruler of the world.

Meh…he’s probably right. Oh well.

livi_o · September 21, 2015, 5:38pm

His book, “The Art of the Deal,” published in 2004, appeared on the New York Times’ bestseller list.

The Art of the Deal was published in 1987.

Well of course, he’s a billionaire and will buy up enough copies to put it on the best “selling” list.

fargo116 · September 21, 2015, 5:46pm

He’s already got a whole buncha dummy corporations set up to buy up copies of the book. And it comes with a free box of crayons

It’ll be YUUUUGE!

Just as the Kennedy Machine did for PROFILES IN COURAGE, another ghosted tome. Nothing new here, except that media gullibility in its desire for an easy story may be greater.

Bad timing - sounds like it may actually contain affirmative statements. Maybe even actual policy positions! The last thing he needs now is to take a stand.

jaybeeraybee · September 21, 2015, 6:02pm

Although I suspect the forthcoming ‘Trump’ book won’t be of the Pulitzer quality. There really needs to be some sort of publishing requirement that has the ghostwriter at least credited on the front cover.

austin_dave · September 21, 2015, 6:10pm

Hasn’t “crippled” be replaced by “gimped” or “alternatively abled”? or something?

manhattan123 · September 21, 2015, 6:16pm

I’m pretty sure God astroturfs some of those Amazon reviews too. No way that thing deserves 5 stars.

hoppy · September 21, 2015, 6:18pm

I guess he decided to go with fiction this time. He dominated the non-fiction market already.

steviedee111 · September 21, 2015, 6:20pm

The dust jacket alone will make your head spin!!!
