Publisher moves up release of book by Trump niece

Source: Politico

The publisher of a tell-all book written by President Donald Trump’s niece Mary is planning to rush the book out next Tuesday despite ongoing litigation aimed at bottling up the insider account of life in the Trump family.

Simon & Schuster announced Monday that “due to high demand and extraordinary interest” the firm is moving up the book’s publication date by two weeks, to July 14 from July 28.

The publishing house also revealed new details about the scathing portrait of her uncle that Mary Trump will unveil in the book: “Too Much and Never Enough, How My Family Created the World’s Most Dangerous Man.”

Mary Trump, a clinical psychologist, argues in the book that Donald Trump was emotionally hobbled at a young age because his mother fell ill and his hard-charging, real-estate-developer father made no effort to take over childrearing duties.

I'm just hoping the book will throw him into an apoplectic frenzy of rage that will have some adverse health effects on him.

that makes a difference, rather than observations from people who did not know him well. Meanwhile, people who have worked with him are muzzled by NDAs, so a lot of stories are mostly conjecture or hearsay. There nothing quite like hearing an insider's point of view.

We all know he’s an incompetent, sadistic SOB, but anyone still on the fence needs to know it too.

9. I'm in favor of anything that keeps Trump reacting angrily to all the sordid details in the book.

Michael Cohen's tell-all book will be next. And if the Supreme Court ever allows the release of his tax returns and financials, Trump's head might just explode.
