Hillary's book came out today and is ALREADY #1 best seller!
In Amazon https://www.amazon.com/best-sellers-books-Amazon/zgbs/books/ref=zg_bs_nav_0

2. I read all the negative "reviews"
They aren't really book reviews and it is obvious that most of the really nasty comments on Amazon are from long-time Hillary haters who have not even read the book or if they have it the truth has made them angry as it always does.

4. The rightwing trolls are hard at work trashing a book they never read.
Amazon conveniently shows if it was a"Verified Purchase" if the review was written by someone who acually bought the book. The star ratings show a disproportional 56% gave her book a one star rating, yet only two of those reviews were from people who own the book.
There are rightwing forums, bots and blogs furiously urging their imps to fly forth and squelch the book with negative reviews, as if anyone doesn't already know their tactic.
I can't wait to get to the part in the book where she blames Area 51, the comet Kohoutek, and the ghost of Cardinal Richelieu... :???:

The best part is when she blames global warming on Mars (marble warming), underground chemtrails, mind controlling fidget spinners, sparkly vampire bats (specifically, Bush and Trump threw a bunch of glitter on a bunch of vampire bats), pogs, and her campaign manager's uncle who mistakenly bought 500 memberships to Yosemite Sam's Club.

Actually, playing games on Amazon, B & N, etc. with "reviews" by people who never read the book in question has been going on for at least a decade or two. I don't know who started it, but these days it's bilateral or multi-lateral. The only real effect is making the reviews of books on those sites useless. It's not AS bad on sites like Yelp, but something like a third of Yelp reviews are bogus - both good and bad reviews.

It will be a huge best-seller, every political pundit, pro or con, will have to buy (Or at least read) it and there seem to be a ridiculous number of people who consider themselves political pundits. And if that only accounts for a couple hundred thousand books, never fear, the Clinton Foundation and the big DemonRat donors will no doubt drop several bulk orders to put it in the millions. Six months from now there will be a lot fewer wobbly tables and bookshelves in this country and large parts of the Second and Third Worlds.

As late as ten years ago, one could still find stacks of plastic-wrapped copies of Genevieve Ferrari's book on the ten-cent table of bookstores and thrift stores in northeastern Nebraska.
In case one's forgotten, Genevieve Ferrari was Walter Mundane's running mate in 1984.....

:lmao: Geraldine Ferraro's books were still wrapped in plastic? Did the NE D Party give the things out to reward (?) donors? :lmao:

Hypocrites. DUmmies and libs bash any conservative or Republican book on a constant basis. There is usually a DUmp post saying something like "DU" the reviews of such and such's new book. Pathetic and weak.

Amazon has knocked 40% off the list price to get it to sell. :rofl:

Really? Plastic wrapped years later.

Indeed - the website that conveniently coined the phrase "DU this.." is now complaining that others use the same tactic they pioneered back in DU's prime.
