The Trump era is the golden age of grift, both for the Trumpist right and the #Resistance left. Some of the internets most infamous hucksters now want to sell you their books.

Some of the most outspoken political grifters of the Trump era want to sell you booksif anyone is interested in buying.
The success of political commentary books like Fox News reporter-turned-Trump-booster Greg Jarretts The Russia Hoax and tell-alls like Omarosas Unhinged have inspired B-list political media celebrities to take time out of their tweetstorms and attention-starved antics to pen the next great American rant.
Multiple sources confirmed to The Daily Beast that far-right political activist Laura Loomer, for example, has been trying to shop a book, and has told associates that there may be interest from major publishers.
Loomer receiving a book deal from a mainstream publisher would be especially strange. The former Project Veritas operative is most famous for unhinged antics like storming onstage during an outdoor production of Julius Caesar to support President Trump and handcuffing herself to the door of Twitters New York headquarters. She has become a controversial figure on the right.
