(14,861 posts)Trumpers will buy it and display it prominently in their homes to demonstrate their loyalty to their beloved leader, the same way members of the Nazi Party did with Mein Kampf.

(1,040 posts)I was traveling with my sister in Arizona. She wanted to visit some old friends, but warned me they were Trump followers. I'm a pretty easy-going person, so I thought I could be civil, as long as they were as well. Walked into their house. Trump flags hanging from the ceiling. Trump magnets on the fridge. They fed us. I was quiet but cordial. Then the wife started dragging out all their Trump paraphernalia. Trump guest bath soaps. Trump bobbleheads. Trump figurines. It was sickening. Every time the wife would laugh and say, "Oh I hope I'm not making you mad." Finally I got up and told my sister I would wait outside by the car.
My sister was angry with me and said I embarrassed her. I told her that her "friends" were terrible hosts, and that I would never do to a guest what they did to me.
So long story short, will these idiots buy his book? Hell yes they will, if for no other reason than to say they have it. They are a cult, and anything with his name on it they'll want.

What a great word. Had to look it up.

(46,267 posts)like Germans did with Mein Kampf during The Third Reich. That would make him see $$$$$$.
OTOH, Trump Jr.'s book Triggered was in the bargain bin about two weeks after publication.

Conspiracy theories....
I guess it will be listed in the children's section. It can't have too many big words.

(639 posts)$100 Million dollars is more than it would cost to create, from scratch, a completely new and independent publishing company.
That would include; writers, editors, marketing, paper mills and the physical printing & distribution of a book.
It would be cheaper to buy a known publisher to print one book. Is Mifflin for sale?

(300 posts)A book would allow his base to keep the fantasy and idol-worship thing going. Speculation is high that Trump wants to re-brand himself as a media mogul, anyways, assuming that he avoids prison...
