They’ll pull the usual tricks they always pull. They’ll force the retailers to buy a certain quantity of the books, and count those as “sold” books. The DNC will buy 100,000 copies and stick them in a landfill somewhere. The NFL will buy a 100,000 copies to hand out as part of lame prize packages or something. The New York Times will report it as a “Bestseller” regardless of how many copies actually get sold. The usual crap that is destroying the mainstream publishing industry.

So who is going read it?

Not the BLMers, his National Felon League buddies?

His gang banger buds in Oakland/LA/Chicago?

This will be a big seller for the We Hate White Crackas crowd. It will probably include a forward by Maxine or Fredrica LMAO.

This isn’t about book sales. It’s about keeping an agenda going...

The ghost writer will design it just for Colin and his NFL buddies. It’ll have mazes in it, little coloring areas, pop-up pictures...
