No doubt there were probably plenty of positive reviews written by people who hadn't read the book as well.

This thread shows what happens when the behaviors of left and right become indistinguishable.

No way dude.  Character does NOT matter.

Yeah. Bezos just started trying to undermine the country because Donny called him out. It didn't start years ago when he bought WaPo to use as his personal Leftist propaganda machine.


Donny is ridiculously jealous of Bezos for having 20X the worth and running a business that does something other than providing a money laundering investment for international scum.

There are lots of better businessmen and deal makers than the tiny fingered Don and he's pretty insecure about it.

When Trump made the snide comment to MI governor Rick Snyder about not having supported Trump, Snyder should have pointed out that Canada is paying for the new bridge and asked how that deal for Mexico to build a wall was coming along.

Speaking of better businessmen than Trump, Dan Gilbert has refilled all those empty buildings in downtown Detroit and just broke ground for a new skyscraper that will be tallest in the city. Gilbert is also working with Bezos on a deal to bring the Amazon HQ to Detroit.

Yeah, it's such an abuse to require reviewers to have actually read the book.

Quote
In an apparent effort to prevent the discourse in the review section from deteriorating, Amazon is limiting customer reviews only to those who are 'verified' to have bought the book

I don't have a problem with that.  Going on Amazon and writing a review about a product that you didn't buy from Amazon is not right.

I don't like it when "their side" does it, I like it even less when "our side" does it because they claim to be doing it in my name.

You'll get no argument from me about that.  I think limiting reviews to verified purchaser is the way to go on this.

Absolutely.  But it's kinda interesting that a lot of fervent Trump admirers took the trouble to go over there and bash the book.

Interesting?  Maybe.  Surprising?  Not in the least.  MAGA.

I see a lot of 5 star reviews from people who just recieved the book per their own comments. Yes there are 1-star trolls, but as many or more 5 star trolls exist as well who haven't even read the Table of Contents yet. I think AMAZON on any new book should allow a minimum of a week before allowing reviews.

I loved that one.  But the two wolves tee shirt is almost as good.

Comedy classic.   What's extra funny is that after I read it, the Amazon advertising bots thought I was really interested in it and sent me advertisement emails for it.  No joke.  "Here's an item you recently viewed..."

    @Emjay caught me stepping out with @CatherineofAragon last night.

@corbe

Next time maybe we shouldn't drive by her house, honking the horn and yelling.
