Former President Donald Trump’s book, “Our Journey Together,” is selling so well that the head of the publishing house, Winning Team Publishing’s Sergio Gor, said the company can’t produce them fast enough.
In an interview with Breitbart News Saturday, Gor said one of the reasons why is because there is a paper shortage in the country, thanks in part to the Biden administration’s inability to solve the ongoing supply chain crisis affecting several industries.
But also, he said, simple demand for the book is also putting a strain on the publisher to crank out enough copies.
In the interview, Gor explained that he has worked with several members of Congress who were told by left-leaning publishers, “Listen, you just can’t write this.”
He went on to say that “conservative books outsell liberal books almost always,” however, authors are often left to deal with leftist publishers who actually seek to undermine them, a fact that led him and Donald Trump Jr. to start their own publishing house, the first offering being the former president’s book.
The president understood this from the start. This is not self-publishing. We paid him a multimillion-dollar advance to get the rights to this book,” Gor said, adding that he met several times with Trump at Mar-a-Lago to work on the project. He said that Trump eventually chose 320 photos out of millions.
“This is 100 percent pure President Donald Trump. And about 50 of them, he hand wrote the captions,” he said, adding that people “love” seeing his handwritten captions printed underneath some of the pictures with the former president’s “famous black sharpie.”
“You can’t come up with these captions if you tried. It’s 100 percent original him, calling Nancy Pelosi effing crazy. It’s things along those lines. Talking about the wall. Talking about China. Talking about Russia. Talking about Congress. Every single thing that happened over the last four years is in there,” he said.
Gor noted that the book sold 200,000 copies within the first six weeks of release, but with a paper shortage, the publisher has been forced to scale back though “demand” remains high.
