Trump's new book to debut behind Ben Carson's on NYT bestseller list

Trump’s new book, Crippled America, will debut on the New York Times hardcover nonfiction bestseller list at #5 — one spot below Carson’s book, A More Perfect Union. The yet-to-be-released list was sent to BuzzFeed News by a publishing industry source, and will appear in the Nov. 22 edition of the New York Times Book Review.

Trump’s title does edge out Carson’s in the less-closely-followed “combined print and e-book” category: On that list, Crippled America is at #4 and A More Perfect Union is at #5. But many industry observers expected Trump’s book to dominate the bestseller list.

As BuzzFeed News recently reported, the celebrity billionaire’s proposal was passed over earlier this year by some publishers, who were skeptical of his staying power in the 2016 race, and then came to regret their decision.
