Record sales is good news for Mary, the question is will it affect the political scene? Who is buying? More who would never vote for Trump? Or, are many Trump enablers into it. Am guessing more of the former, and that though it's too early to tell that it won't affect many voter minds.

"Mary Trump's book breaks record with mammoth sales"

As a keen student of the shitshow formerly known as the daily news, you may have noticed the president's niece has a book out this week. Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World's Most Dangerous Man is the first tell-all written by one of Donald Trump's relatives. The fact that Mary Trump is a psychologist with a Ph.D. adds fuel to the fire, as she diagnoses her uncle with having all the signs of sociopathy and narcissistic personality disorder. (Gee, you think?)

These and other juicy extracts from the book have leaked at a steady clip since the president's unsuccessful lawsuit to block its publication. You can read for free about how Donald leered at Mary the first time he saw her in a swimsuit, that he paid a guy to take his SATs, that he went to see a movie while his brother Fred Trump Jr. (Mary's dad) was dying, and that when Fred Trump Sr. had dementia, Donald tried to rewrite his dad's will to put himself in sole charge of the family fortune.

The question is: Should you bother with the book itself?

[... to end ...]

Donald Trump is a black hole of white privilege who kept failing upwards. He learned nothing in his life other than how to get media coverage, plus the fact that bullying helps keep all uncomfortable questions at bay. His dad taught him never to apologize or self-examine. There is nothing at his center because he never had to strive for anything. Like Aaron Burr in Hamilton, he believes nothing and will fall for anything.

We do not need Mary Trump to provide more evidence of the needy moral vacuum; we're all living it. But we can at least be grateful that she's moved the needle on the definitive Donald Trump biography that will be written one day, when the full extent of his criminal past, present, and future has been revealed.

Personally, sorry Mary, but from the time i first knew you were writing your book i felt i'd rather spend the money on a beer and a chat than on it. Nothing personal, it's just that before election 2016 i knew enough about your uncle and his family to know i wasn't really interested in spending money just to know a bit more.

That said, Mary, congratulations. Well done for getting it to the public. And, good luck to you.
