Kind of like how David Hogg boosted NRA memberships and Laura Ingram viewers. He would have been better off leaving his twitter tantrums out of it and it would be far more ignored.

The rollout of the James Comey book was designed to get under Trump’s skin and help Comey’s book become a bestseller. Trump walked right into the trap, and it worked like a charm.
The Washington Post reported that Trump is acting as his own communications director, which is how he walked into the Comey set up:....

Naw, Hogg wasn't a household name before his 15 minutes.  Comey's book was going to be a big seller no matter what Trump did or didn't say.

They originally set the initial printing at 150K copies. After Trump started tweeting against it, the preorders shot up so fast, they upped the first run to 850K.

All the subsequent attention hasn't helped Comey at all. He's pretty much been raked over the coals by both sides, and started a war between him, McCabe, and Lynch.

This is the stupidest shit I've read today. Comey Island has been brought on every leftist program like a circus act pimping this book. Trump had absolutely nothing to do with this.

This is an idiotic story.  This was bound to be a big seller, because every book that bashes Trump will be.  The Resistance idiots want to make a statement, and the marches with the pink hats failed.  The Publisher knows this so it played games with the print runs, and we can count on connoisseurs of Politicus (leftists) to jump right on it.

Right on time....

Terry Gross on "Fresh Air" was tough on him ;).

If it is a tell-all on Trump you don't have to be a rhodes scholar to see who will be ist in line to pre-order the monthly hog swill de jour.
