NEW YORK (AP) — Bob Woodward’s “Fear” is already a million-seller.

Simon & Schuster announced Tuesday that Woodward’s takedown of President Donald Trump has sold more than 1.1 million copies just a week after publication. It is among the fastest selling hardcover books in memory and had the fastest opening in history for Simon & Schuster, which also publishes Stephen King, Doris Kearns Goodwin and Mary Higgins Clark.

the whole book yet? I am reading it, but at times it is making me so angry, I have to stop and wait a few days to continue. It is emotionally draining for me.

Woodward is a police state agent, and knowing how the fascists work, there's no doubt they buy the doorstoppers in bulk, using taxmoney to enrich their own while
-surely people know Watergate was a coup!
And, if Woodward was Cia, that whole deal spells Treason! Don't buy anything by Woodward, palin, oreally karlrove bush cheney etc. Please
Item the Don is still potus and all this chatter is reinforcing his popularity among the powerless right/racist while strengthening the NS Statists see Bolton, Kochs, Limbah-humbug
