Trump allies launch publishing house with an eye on upending the book industry - POLITICO

Trump announced last week that he was publishing a coffee table book of photographs from his time in the White House - just ahead of the holiday gift rush - with Winning Team Publishing. The outfit is a new imprint with a decidedly MAGA flavor, run by former Trump campaign aide Sergio Gor and Trump's son, Donald Trump Jr.

The book, titled "Our Journey Together," was marketed at $74.99, or $229.99 for a signed copy. But despite the high price tag, Gor said they already have exceeded sales of 70,000 copies in the first week of the preorder.

Trump has not yet written a post-presidential memoir. And part of the reason, sources in the industry say, is that some of the major publishing houses have recoiled at the prospect of having to fact-check his work or the social backlash that would ensue.
