‘touting a book that was written for him’
Not really buying this. Nobody hires a ghostwriter to turn out weak, puerile, cringe-inducing prose. Yes, the text was likely much worse before the editor worked it over. Still, it has Comey’s brand of self-expression written all over it. It reads like an extended version of one of his lofty, self-involved/exalting tweets. I’d bet $ he wrote at least the rough draft himself.
