Bulk “sales.” This is a payola style scam for Christie’s support for the Democrat’s Marxist agenda.

He didn’t get Hillary’s people who know how to make a book look like it’s selling whether it is or not.

In order for the scam to work Chrissy has to find some fat cat willing to “purchase” the books. The publisher gets their percentage - less for bulk purchase than for individual copies, but still a percentage - and the “author” gets the juice. Problem - no fat cats.

Why would anyone think people are interested in a book by Chris Christie or associate him with “saving” the Republican Party?

They will soon be appearing in Dollar Tree - and it will be an item that will still be at the $1.00 price tag (which they recently had to abandon due to inflation) - if not 2 for $1.00.
