Hillary Clinton sells 300,000 books


Big Whoop. All that proves is that there are 300,000 gullible people out there. Probably just as many would buy something if it were authored by Hitler or Khaddafy (Libya). Am I supposed to run right out and buy a copy of "Everyone's Wrong!" (except me) because it sold a few hundred thousand copies?

And that's how Trump got elected. Just a handful of idiots who find it amusing to support a complete idiot for president.
So 300K people want to read HRC's story ... what's wrong with that? It's a free market, she's an accomplished person who is telling her story.
Except it's just another chance for right-wing haters to pour on their hate, so go on and proceed with your hate campaign.
You all look so thoughtful and intellectual while screaming bloody murder over a dedicated female public servant. It's easy to holler obscenely about pant-suits and what not, but what exactly has HRC done to bring on the hate? I think it's being a woman and being a Clinton. Well, that's how I feel about the Bush legacy (and the Reagan debacle) but I try to keep my mouth shut since I know so many knee-jerk neo-pubs are just hoping for a reason to to unleash more invective.

I'm not a Trump fan but it's amazing you are blind to they hypocrisy and irony in your own post. Also you are cool with HRH blatant corruption and ties to murder? I'm glad I'm not so blase about criminal acts. You must have a lot more experience with that sort of thing.

What's Hillary done to warrant adoration? I don't think I would use the word "accomplished" when describing Hillary. For that matter I would have to use an asterisk if I used the word "accomplished" to describe Trump. Trump made his rise by being less forthright in his dealing with others. Why keep your mouth shut if you think the Republicans have character issues?

I figured she would have sold more since all the people who voted for her seemed to love her so much. Lol

Kind of like how a lot of gullible people that supported Trump would eat up everything he says, writes, sells, promote, post on Twitter, does, and 'promises'? Yells out 'fake news!', spreads other falsehood and delusions around, and possibly gets away with being a good Benedict Arnold under everyone's nose just because he can?

Really? Some published books of a former opponent not holding office was your biggest concern at the moment (do you tend to get like this with other 20+ candidates and the previous administrations too), but not whatever embarrassment or lunacy Dotard is going on about from the office right now????? Forget everything that happened from the previous election and such, I'm very concern with what's been going on under this current administration right NOW!!!

No doubt some morons supported Trump but I would put their number under the number of morons who voted for Clinton. I would have an easier time voting for Trump with the understanding he is not an establishment candidate and not have sky high expectations versus voting for somebody who supposedly has intellect but has never displayed it. What's Hillary really done as either US Senator or SOS? If Hillary were some feel good politician versus being supposedly a gifted thinker then I would be more impressed with her getting a highway named someplace in upstate NY.


Dotard? Really?! You would give any positive exposure (in your mind) to the biggest violator of human rights in current times. I don't think that even Putin is sending dissenters to Siberia on the order of what was being done during the height of the Cold War.

Nah, I think 'Rocket Man' is a super douche in his own right too. Both are really petty individuals that are unfortunately in power squabbling back and forth.

Not being a traditional candidate means nothing with Trump. He still never proven any good intentions to lead a country or revolutionize anything out of the establishment (he probably had no idea what all that even meant before either). Trump’s not even experience in the world of politics and government! He even once admits that being president is harder than it looks for him and misses his old life.

The country is still super divided after the election and during this administration. The presidency just seems to be all title and bragging rights to him at most. He said to have one of the lowest approval ratings ever compare to any previous presidents. In office, Trump still didn’t accomplish much during his nine months. Some of his legislative and antics are so unreasonably asinine that not even some republicans could get behind them. The sad part to come out of this election with an inexperienced TV persona as president now opens more doors for dopes like Kanye West, Caitlyn Jenner, and Kid Rock to run for government too. Can wait for one of the Kardashians to become a US Diplomat next!

Let Clinton publish a book. Who cares? As a previous poster puts it, no one is forcing a gun on your head to read or purchase her books. Other politicians and previous candidates have also moved onto their own matters that don’t revolve around Trump too much at the moment. I heard Jeb and Kasich have moved onto some other things. Would I give a rat’s ass about what they do with their time too much? Nope. So it’s all a moot point for me. Focusing any more attention on his opponents or the previous administrations, under his term, are just moots by comparison.

"Lil" Kim is far worse than a douche if the allegations are even remotely true about him. I am not proclaiming Trump a genius but just saying it is reasonable to set the bar lower. Further, both parties failed their constituents as far as offering viable candidates go. Pretty sad that somebody can become a Presidential candidate because of overwhelming wealth or unreasonable leverage.


Nobody said that Clinton could not put out a book. I am pointing out by a fair number of initial reviews that there is little substance to it. Just blaming a bunch of people for her failure. Not that I believe in Hillary but maybe I would buy something if I knew it contained some level of substance such as how to create economic growth. Not that I would treat her thoughts as well informed but just checking out what the competition has to say.
