What, the usual GOP modus operandi of "Launder Russian money by buying a shitload of these books to force them onto best-seller lists and then give them away at our klan rallies" isn't happening now?
She may be dumb enough to think people were actually buying those books.
If only her supporters could read đ
If her supporters could read, they wouldn't support her.
Inb4 she's next year's new RINO.
Why rhino next year when you can horse this year?
Horse? Why are we bringing Sarah Jessica Parker into this?
I've never agreed with that sentiment.
Man web search is getting really bad. I can't find where that happened and normally it would be pretty easy. Was that a Bush II-era thing or was that a Trump thing?
It's a standard way to funnel campaign donations into your personal bank account. You negotiate a big percentage of each book sell with the publisher or self publish, have a ghost writer whip out a book, then use campaign money to buy the books to hand out at rallies.
So you get a 30% cut of each sale and you buy 1mil of books with politcal donations, boom! You just got 300k, and you profit from any rube actually buying the book out in the world.
And you hit the âbest sellersâ lists for first week sales too.
Same for search. If I'm trying to search for something that happened in the past and that person or subject has been in the news recently, that's ALL I get. even using +/- and "" modifiers does nothing and gives me results without my specific search functions.
I have heard other users say that Google ignores those modifiers now, but I hadn't seen anything from an official publication saying so. But it makes sense when you think about it- the faster you get your search results, the less time you spend looking at ads.
The Venn diagram of people who read and people who care about MTG is an "8"
If those people knew their numbers or even knew what a venn diagram was, they would be unfathomably angry
well if they knew what a Venn diagram was, they'd know such a diagram with no intersections is a Euler diagram not a Venn diagram.
Incorrect sir/madam! I'll start by thanking you for making me look this up and question my own assumption about the world. In fact, a venn diagram is any diagram that shows all possibilities in a set where a euler diagram shows only relevant relationships. So, for this example, the venn diagram would be 2 circles with no overlap because there is no relationship, but all members of the aet must be represented. The Euler diagram of the same could, arguably, be null or blank as there is no relevant relationship to display. Though, I imagine it's also correct enough to use the terms interchangeably in a diagram where the relevant relationship is an empty set.
"shows all possibilities in a set"
fwiw, I'm only jokingly being a pedant, but a Venn shows all relationships not all possibilities â therefore a diagram with no relationships would not be a Venn.

The venn diagram of people who read and people who care about MTG is boobs
Hey! You leave boobs out of this!
leave boobs out
Tell everyone reading books is bad.
Write a book.
Profit.
Well, in this case:
3. Profit
There is hope for the world
She forgot step 2a) Have some political action committees purchase thousands of copies of your book to make it appear on bestseller lists despite few actual humans buying copies.
She can read?
She can write??
Her followers can read??
Their lack of literacy would explain the poor sales numbers.
Youâd think theyâd be stocking up on burnables for winter, though?
Most likely a ghostwriter.
Maybe
Not really
She wrote a book for people who refuse to read.
Normally all of these books are straight trash but GOP PACs buys up thousands of copies to get them on best seller lists. Greene seemingly doesn't have support of a competent PAC that knows how to grift. So while on the surface this makes her look out of touch, reading deeper the low sales also mean her support from the party is thinner than her resume.
That's a good point, all these "Best Sellers" yet I don't know anyone who actually reads outside of the people who make reading books their whole personality.
Which is extra sad for me beacuse I'm a writer
She can read and write?
Amazing what a ghost writer can do lol
Probably dictated
Another reader joked that the book had nothing to do with Magic: The Gathering
heh
Good. Now stop giving it free advertising by writing about it in your publication!
ranking 9,735 among its best-selling books as of Monday, November 27
I watched a TikTok over the weekend by an author who was ranked 87th (83rd? Somewhere in the 80's) on Amazon bestsellers and she dished that the number of books including pre-orders that she sold her first week to attain that rank: 650 copies.
Now maybe this is the rank on the annual or overall bestselling list where you would expect a recent release to rank poorly (in which case, awful journalism to pick a meaningless stat to manipulate the message - I don't care if we do happen to align politically, don't do that shit), but if that is the weekly list, those 8 reviews she got might be the total number of sales.
Yet, we're writing articles about it, posting about it, commenting on it. Exactly what this freak wants.
Itâd probably help if her loyalist supporters could read.
Buying books they don't read is par for the course for them.
It's a book that banned itself.
It's almost as if her target audience for it don't read.
I heard it was a self published coloring book highlighting the various forms of VD this trollop collected while working the glory holes around DC.
Sounds heavy on the brown.
He likes to be called "Dark Sienna"
She looks like a summer sausage.

Much more fitting, honestly.
I'm sure it will do great once it hits the dollar stores...
Depends how absorbent the pages are
In business I think we call that misunderstanding your core demographic.
Watch her pivot to blaming either being cancelled, or the Jews running the media, taking that line to her fans that have never bought a book in their lives.
How do you even write a book when you have no idea what the inside of one even looks like? For all we know the inside of her book is hollowed out to hold a gun.
Step 1) Pay someone to write a book for you. Give them general notes about what you want in it, but they can come up with the details.
Step 2) Sell the book and (theoretically) get profits.
Optional Step 3) Pay your ghost writer. Hey, if you're following the Trump model, paying people for the work they do for you is optional.
Nobody wants to launder money for her or ?
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Less than a week after its release, Marjorie Taylor Greene's book isn't performing as well as that of Republican Senator Ted Cruz, according to data available on Amazon.
In the book, Greene said she speaks of January 6, 2021, gives "inside stories about the Swamp you won't hear anywhere else" and writes about "Jewish Space Lasers"âa reference to an antisemitic conspiracy theory she spread in 2021, when she said that the Rothschild banking family was behind an anti-Christmas plot.
On Amazon, the world's largest online bookstore, the MAGA Republican's memoir was ranking 9,735 among its best-selling books as of Monday, November 27.
Another reader joked that the book had nothing to do with Magic: The Gatheringâan iconic game which shares the same initials as the Georgia congresswoman.
By comparison, a book by Republican Senator Ted Cruz of Texas titled: "Unwoke: How to Defeat Cultural Marxism in America" was ranked six in the same category.
Cruz's book, which was released on November 7, is also currently faring better than Greene's in terms of reviews and has a 4.3 out of 5 star rating.
The original article contains 471 words, the summary contains 182 words. Saved 61%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
âUnwokeâ ⌠so⌠asleep?
Ted Cruzâs book is about being asleep and unaware?
I'm gonna wait and keep checking in at book stores. When this book is the bargain bins clearance pile for a dollar, I'll buy it.
Only because I need to know if it's written better or worse than 50 shades, and I could use the paper when I pack extra plates.
Just read a few pages and put it back down
A book? She can write?
Former political ghostwriter here: nearly zero percent chance she wrote this. It was written by a likely young, underpaid staffer.
Makes sense seeing as MTG is flop-sweat given human form.
What, the usual GOP modus operandi of "Launder Russian money by buying a shitload of these books to force them onto best-seller lists and then give them away at our klan rallies" isn't happening now?

She's pissed off a lot of people in the party so they aren't helping her the way they would someone like Graham.
