The Biden family is nothing, if not corrupt, privileged and mediocre. Crackhead Hunter Biden’s so called “Beautiful Things” book, that was hyped to no end by the media. Even Fox News tried to pimp the book. It turns out, people aren’t interested in reading the corrupt, crack smoking drug addled loser’s book. Hunter Biden’s book sales are a lot like his father’s presidency, a big fat flop.
“Beautiful Things,” the confessional memoir by Presidential ne’er do well son Hunter Biden is a flop after one week.
NPD Book Scan says the book, in Hunter whines about being a drug addict who slept around and has no memory of fathering a child, has sold just 10,000 copies in its first week. For a celebrity book with so much PR, TV appearances, etc, that’s not a lot.
On Amazon, “Beautiful Things” is ranked at number 130 now 177, now 208.
Nevertheless, an early surge of sales based on Biden’s appearance on “CBS Sunday Morning” puts “Beautiful Things” at number 4 on the New York Times Bestseller list that comes out today. But that will be short lived. Last week, “Rock Me on the Water,” a terrible book about cultural trends in 1974, hit the list after its “Sunday Morning” plug. It’s gone this week.
Hunter’s TV appearances on CBS were embarrassing. He came off like Eddie Haskell from “Leave it to Beaver”: cloying, unsympathetic, whiny, sycophantic. Hunter has a sad story, certainly: when he was a child his mother and sister were killed in a car accident. As an adult, his brother died from cancer. So Hunter turned to crack cocaine, slept with his sister-in-law, and fathered a child with a woman he doesn’t remember. Forget about his questionable business life. The guy is a creep. Instead of honoring his family, he brought them disgrace.
