Nobody wants Hillary Clinton's new book
The Week ^ | 9/14/2016 | Staff

Posted on 09/14/2016 3:41:05 PM PDT by GilGil

Hillary Clinton's newest book is a certifiable flop by the publishing industry's standards, The New York Times reports. Stronger Together sold only 2,912 copies in its first week of sales according to Nielsen BookScan, which charts about 80 percent of nationwide physical book sales. By comparison, Clinton's 2014 memoir Hard Choices, which also didn't meet expectations, sold over 85,000 copies in its first week, and Clinton's 2003 memoir, Living History, sold six times as many copies as Hard Choices.

Landfill material.

I wonder how many poor trees were felled to make this pitiable porridge possible.

It already isn’t good for the environment and people who try to read it, break out in hives.

Good thing it will find it way into the remainder bins in a few weeks time.

Clintons’ books aren't about being sold and read. They are all about a mechanism to launder and funnel money to the Clinton Crime Family.

I bet the Clinton Foundation starts funneling money to either purchase her book or into the hands of others to purchase. One way or another, they are going to ramp up the sales artificially.

I remember watching a movie on Jimmy Hoffa. In order to line his pockets, he forced each teamster office to buy this toy truck for a $1000 each. This was back 60 years ago. $1000 was a lot. There were something like 300-400 union chapters. People knew what was going on but they all bought their trucks prominently displayed to show they had lined Hoffa’s pockets. Hillary is no different except with her it’s books.

Notice that one day Hoffa disappeared. Wonder when Hillary will disappear.

Even the collectivists aren’t buying this one.

Hey, BTW, my second book became available online two days ago.

“Stronger Together”?

... perhaps “Dicking Bimbos” would have sold more copies.

If they had called the book Dicking Bimbos 29 million copies would have been sold on day one.

My theory is that many bookstores will be very firmly instructed:
"...Sell the book Stronger Together with a 'buy this, get any other book FREE offer' attached..."

But remember, she still gets to keep the few million dollar advance .... the publisher stock holders get to foot the deferred bribery bill!

They may not be. That’s how in tune with the Pizza chains I am.

I didn’t even know she had a new book out. That’s a joke! Who writes this garbage for her? When has she found the time to write a new book?

I wish. We visited NO last year. Nope stuck here for another five years at least.

Hubby has another 7 years and 4 months of child support payments (but who is counting? 12 1/2 years down—cs goes to 21 here)

According to wikipedia, there are about 120,000 libraries in the U.S. Compare that to 2,912 sales.

It’s unthinkable. Hillary is toast.

When, pray tell, has busy, overworked Hillary had time to write another book?
