'A Warning' By Anonymous Topples Donald Trump Jr.'s 'Triggered' Book As No. 1 Bestseller

A tell-all book about the Trump administration penned by an anonymous senior White House official appears to have taken the top spot on The New York Times' bestseller list for non-fiction, toppling Donald Trump Jr.'s own tome, Triggered.

Described on the Times' bestseller list as an "assessment of the president," as well as a "moral appeal" to the American public, A Warning, offers an eviscerating analysis of Trump and his ability to lead.

President Donald Trump's son's own book, meanwhile, targets those on "the left," accusing liberals of thriving on hate and seeking to silence those on the right.

Noting that A Warning had claimed the number one spot on The Times' bestseller list for non-fiction, pushing Trump Jr.'s book to number two, bestselling author and political commentator Tony Schwartz welcomed the news, calling it "poetic justice" in a tweet.

Guess the Repukes are going to have to buy another $100,000 worth of Don junior's book in bulk.

I would love to hear an insider give info for the daily grooming their servants have to do to prepare them and dress them to go out in public.....Not just trump, but his wife and all the spawn of his.........
Think no further than the make up foundation that trump has to have done to his face every single day.
And the poor person who has to manage to sculpt that hair on his head after he slept on it all night.
I am sure that the first thing the hair person has to do is wash out the ton of hair spray used the day before.

Side note: hysterical story. Melanoma likes to shop at the extremely high end clothing stores, and private showings by big name clothing designers. A sales lady, a few years back, released an interesting story about taking care of Melanoma that day. Melanoma tries on many things in a private area, (this was before being first lady) removes them and throws them aside on the floor. The sales lady said that she found a brand and style of bra that fit her "silicone sisters" really well. She ordered 100 Black, 100 white, and 100 nude or natural. The sales lady reported that Melanoma doesn't like wearing the same undergarments more than once.....The high end company, upon hearing this, tracked down which employee reported this and the Sales Lady learned that losing your job was a side effect of opening your mouth about anything, anywhere, anytime about the companies clientele.......

what all it entails to prepare these people to go out in public. It reminds me of stories about the elaborate procedures that royalty and aristocrats went through getting dressed in years past. What is sad is that after all that effort, Trump looks like a total clown. Sometimes less is more!

Bizarre story about Melania's shopping practices.

Donald Trump Jr.’s was only at #1 due to bulk buys by partisan organizations.

The Anonymous book Warning is being bought by people that want to read it.

They cheated and they still didn’t win.

Going in and buying any Republican's book by the Train load to place it number one, but more importantly to financially award the Author (via extremely profitable, pre arranged royalties) for his or her allegiance and crap. (In all reality, money laundering or pay off and reward to the Republican Author)

Leadership qualities and the later fine-tunings needs to be included at the beginning of every high school history and govt class so that those standards can be used throughout the year to evaluate events and leaders.
