    The book will be called Liberal Privilege, with Trump Jr adding that people will be shocked by what Biden has already gotten away with and that 'Libs are already triggered' in a tweet that he posted on Saturday evening.

    Yet there was something odd about this tweet. Trump Jr had opted to only share a small part of the book's cover. 'What was wrong with the rest of it?' you might say. As reported by Axios, the full title for Trump Jr's book is Liberal Privelege: Joe Biden and the Democrat’s Defense of the Indefensible, and it didn't take people long to notice that there is no need for 'Democrats' to have an apostrophe in it.

    Poor Don Jr.

    A pathetic buffoon who is releasing a book to "trash" "Democrats", but doesn't even understand the basic rules of grammar.

    Do you think that Don Jr. Will EVER fix the Embarrassing Typo?

    Good job, AJ! Start calling for impeachment against Don Jr. NOW!

    Until then though? Insert yawning emoji here.

    Our stable genius president also thinks you need an apostrophe to pluralize a word. We’re being governed by a band of billionaire morons. Or is it moron’s now?

    Huh?

    How can anyone "Impeach" Don Jr.?

    He Currently holds No Federal Office (that would be subject to Impeachment).

    I assume that you are familiar with The Constitution.

    Exactly HOW (and from what Office) are you expecting Trump Jr. to be Impeached?

    Anyway, do you have any "contribution" to the Actual Topic of the Thread?

    Do you think that subsequent copies of the book will have the typo fixed?

    Says the person who just capitalized "ever" instead of using italics or bold font to stress the word "ever", and capitalizes the word "will" when its in the middle of a sentence. Where is your proper rules of grammar use again?

    If you're going to criticize someone for their grammar be sure to not make any mistakes yourself.

    Btw, in case you didn't know it, companies that sell books generally proof read what is said in order to weed out grammatical errors and misspelled words. There isn't a book writer in the entire world that doesn't take advantage of this because they all make mistakes.

    I'd grant the apostrophe but the hyphen between 'best' and 'selling' isn't required. Bestseller/best seller and bestselling/best selling are both recognized by Oxford and Merriam-Webster and if you look on the covers of The Audacity of Hope and Becoming (by Pres Obama and Michelle Obama) you'll find no hyphenation.

    Oh, I'm sure you'll be calling for it somehow, AJ!

    I mean, do you really want me to explain the joke to you?

    BREAKING NEWS: Andrew Jackson's forum post also riddled with typos! Unnecessary capitalization of 'will' 'embarrassing' and 'typo'.

    Uh...I mean, I hate the Trumps as much as the next guy, but I don't think Trump Jr personally designed and photoshopped his own book cover. I mean, I would be surprised if he even wrote it.

    Much ado about nothing.

    Maybe this is AJ's way of telling us to talk about Hunter Biden again?

    This is probably a bit embarrassing for you, and a whole lot of embarrassing for Greg Evans, but the word is spelled "Privilege". I guess my question for you is: Will you EVER fix the Embarrassing Typo [sic]?

    Hmm - how about this:

    Anyone who doesn't like the Trump family is free to vote for someone else this November.

    ^ So, there's that.

    Anyone who thinks this will move the needle in any direction regarding the election is fooling themselves.

    Also, capital letters are generally used for proper nouns and the beginning of sentences. You are being grammatically incorrect while yourself complaining about a typo.

    This is known as irony.

    Insert emoji here as if to convey some kind of point.

    The apostrophe is actually kind of a common mistake, I myself used the apostrophe incorrectly at times(now that I downloaded Grammarly, the thing corrects my spelling even on seemingly good spellings lol.)

    Don't you think it is beyond pathetic to complain about grammar mistakes in a book that is not even yet published? Maybe you should give the fake news a rest. Just sayin.

    FYI, what you have in red came verbatim from the article.
