Donald and Melania Trump, the perfect couple — who are in an amazing, loving marriage (according to Fox News) — announced in July that they each have books set to hit the shelves this Fall. Their books each have their own cover design and price.
Even the July announcements of the books were different. Melania talked about hers on her website and in a brief announcement post on X, while Trump went with a longer post on Truth Social where he once again disparaged America.
Melania’s Book: Melania
Melania Trump’s book comes in a special edition with a white cover and the title (her name) in black. The design mimics another well-known book’s cover, according to The Daily Beast.
Melania fans can purchase a special collector’s edition for $150 that includes her signature, “bonus photos,” and a digital collectible” (An NFT trading card, perhaps?).
A “regular” copy of her book is much cheaper than her husband’s — a grifter’s gonna grift, though, right?
If $150 is too much, you can spend just $75 to get a copy of the “regular edition” of her book with her signature, but none of the “bonus goodies.”
The regular copy sports a black cover with her name in white. Without the bonus signature, the book costs around $40, and it is currently selling like crazy on Amazon weeks before its release.
Donald Trump’s book: Save America
Melania’s other half also has a book coming out on September 3rd, but it’ll cost you a pretty penny. A pre-order of his book is $99, with a special signed copy priced at $499.
Donald Trump’s July 25th announcement on Truth Social struck a different tone than Melania’s simple post on X.
“I’m pleased to announce my new Book, “SAVE AMERICA.” As everyone knows, the first two, “Our Journey Together” and “Letters to Trump,” have been spectacular successes, and this is the BEST OF ALL, especially because we are now living in a Failing Nation, but it will not be failing for long. We will soon MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
The Save America cover features a photo of Trump (his favorite subject) with hist fist in the air that was taken after the assassination attempt (and the “tampon-requiring” ear boo-boo).
It’ll be unsurprising if both books end up on the New York Times Bestsellers list after right-wing PACs buy up a bunch of copies—a common tactic used each time a Conservative publishes a book.
John Iadarola, host of The Damage Report, did a deep dive into the phenomenon last year. Interesting ploy, but also dumb as hell. Spending millions on books just to get on the list? Goes to show what really matters to these people.
Do you plan to read either one of these books? When you do, tell us all about it in the comments! Curious minds want to know, but aren’t willing to give the Trumps’ a dime just to find out.
