Right wing think tanks and book clubs, all backstopped with dark money from conservative family foundations, buy every copy. Then they give them away with subscriptions to the same book clubs or mailing lists. No one reads any of them, because the people who support these groups aren't exactly what you call "readers."

"written" by Sarah Palin were sold this exact same way. No way would SHE make the best seller list. Little Donnie HAS to have help with everything he does, it has been that way his entire life. Wonder what he will do when he runs for political office, and daddy is in prison and unable to help him?

As soon as the NYT put the dagger by the title to indicate bulk purchasing got it on the list from the get-go.

They've been doing that dagger thing for at least a decade now.
