It will still by on the NYT bestseller list because some rich liberal will buy 200,000 copies as a backdoor gift.
NYT bestseller list has no requirement for sales. Books get there based on editorial choice by NYT. I don't think NYT has an honest atom in its being.
It’s not among the top 100 best-sellers on Amazon.
When a liberal writes a book, every library (public and school) in the country automatically orders multiple copies. They sit on the shelf, untouched for a couple of years, and then are resold for a quarter at the book dumping sale.
Or some governor or union president will buy 200,000 copies and distribute them to people for a small fee.
