Something funny about the book possibly being printed in Spanish.

Using tax money to piss off the Cheeto-In-Chief. I like how you think!

Good idea; thanks!

I’m long overdue for a trip to the local library anyway…

Needed: a kickstarter that takes cryptocurrencies (for anonymous transactions) to anonymously publish said book without any specific individual being responsible.

Oh, this should be good. Last time Trump was upset about a book, he lied thirty plus times on a deposition in regards to it.

If I recall, they actually did succeed in getting publication of the book stopped (at least for a while) in Britain–and they even managed to forbid the press from reporting on it.

brilliant!

How about “with Russian urine soaked porn…”?

Wait, we already have a line about waves of amber…

I’m going to have to re-think this.

Who is this witty jerk? They must be banned. TOO witty, I think.

That should probably be encouraged. If you ran a series of intelligence contests between a horse and Trump’s appointees, we shouldn’t be surprised if the horse came out on top more often than not. So it’s likely to be a net win.

Wow!

"In the span of one day, Michael Wolff’s bombshell book about President Donald Trump and his administration, Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House, moved 48,448 positions up on Amazon’s best-seller list to reach the no. 1 spot. As of 10:00 a.m. EST on Thursday, it has retained its status. "

(trump should take comfort in knowing Bezos is laughing all the way to the bank)

My hometown library already has 20 requests for the book. They’re going to have to order more copies.

Hell, I’ll order ten thousand copies myself if it’ll help.

I love the publisher’s response - to move up release of the book days earlier, to this Friday!

I may now order this on Kindle. I might not even read it. I’ll just feel good knowing I did something that massively irritates Trump.
