You ever count how far in advance that is? A couple of years.

I’ve heard grumblings about the library budget too.  Maybe That’s why there aren’t many new books coming in.

Isnt it always like that? The books get huge ad budgets, they are in the bestseller list for a while but can be poorly written, rambling messes.

He's hoping this big case will assure his reelection.  He'll handle all news releases very carefully.  As I said, he tends to showboat.  This will give him opportunity to get a lot of free publicity.

The DA? A news story said he has a lot of distractions based on personal life and accusations.  Is that all fake?

I'd trade DT for Bush in a heartbeat.

I'd rate it a toss up.  Bush had Cheney and Rove.  Trump has Barr, Ross, DeVoe, Wheeler, Pompeo, Mnuchin, Stephen Miller, Kushner, et al.

Not exactly a collection of all star, but then Bush didn't have the "best and brightest" around him, either.

Exactly. The last interesting one I read was about JackieO, if one can call it political. She had a very interesting life before and after JFK.

The library has multiple copies and will probably buy a few more when they see the demand.
