    Well he is a billionaire, unlike the Clintons who were broke and had to steal the furniture from the WH when they left.

    It's ok though, they plundered Haiti and came out on top again.

    Well as the former poster pointed out, it went on sale today, and last week when I looked at it, it was in the #1 sales position.

    Doesn't take a genius to understand they put it at #1 before it even went on sale.

    While your post is slightly hysterical, I have an uncomfortable feeling you may be at least partly right.

    If Canada's recent embrace of the dark path is any indicator, at least ...

    I'm sure it's a reasonable and standard response to the alt-right propaganda machine attempting to bury the book in negative feedback.

    Typical of the sophomoric nonsense that takes place online.

    Oh I almost forgot.

    It's not like Amazon got caught letting companies sell counterfeit products to customers for a long time.

    Oh wait, yeah. They did.

    What you just posted does not refute my post.

    Thank you.

    Not unless you can build a time machine.

    I looked up the best seller list last week and commented on the "zero" reviews.

    At the time I thought it was already on sale, because there it was on the "best seller" list.

    I didn't know until just now that it went on sale today.

    I really don't care either way. Maybe it was pre-orders or something, maybe it was Amazon being dirty. Maybe a little of both.

    Who cares, let Clinton write her little books where she starts with "I take full responsibility for my loss" on page 1, then spends the next 500 pages crying about it being everyone elses fault lol.

    Friggin Macedonians!

    No, It's more like Liberal Jeff Bezos (90 Billion), Amazon Founder and owner of the Washington Post playing with his toys.

    I give the "success" win to the people who weren't handed a real-estate empire by their daddy.

    Put simply, Amazon should only be allowing reviews from verified purchases. I know when I'm reading reviews, I ignore every comment that doesn't have that tag on it.


    BTW, good on Amazon for deleting these fake 1 Stars. If they aren't deleting the 10s also though, their removal of the 1s is easy to characterize as political pandering.

    Why are you such a hopeless right-wing propagandist? I don't understand people like you.
