Hello, welcome back. Welcome to it. Welcome to Wednesday. It's 22nd of October

2025. Happy Wednesday to you. I'm Derek Hunter. This is the Derek Hunter podcast.

Appreciate your ears for the next however long it takes to get through some Carine Jean-Pierre,

some good old-fashioned KJP. My God, she's so historic. Did I mention she's historic?

I have missed her.

The way you miss a rash that goes away just when you get used to scratch net.

That's how I think of good old KJP.

She's got a book out.

She's got a book out and it is not going very well.

In fact, I'm going to look that up as we're sitting here.

Go over to the Amazon there and she is, well, she's selling it. You got to give her that.

Nobody's buying it. Therein lies the rub. It's called independent. There we go. It's called independent.

A look inside a broken White House outside the party lines. She's so incredibly brave.

It is currently the number one new release in women in politics, which I think they're about four books that would qualify for that category.

But let me reload this again, because I can't believe that that has still that high up there.

On Amazon, at this moment, she is ranked 24,107 in books.

That's not good for those of you playing along. As somebody who's released a book,

my book made it to number 16 for a couple days on Amazon. It peaked at 16. As did many people I know in high school, peaked at 16. But it was up there. And what that means is if you're in the top 100, you're selling a lot of books.

Not thousands and thousands, but several, a couple thousand at a minimum. If you're in the top

2,000, you're selling hundreds of books a day.

If you are outside of that, you are a rounding air that is irrelevant in the grand scheme of things in so far as book publishing goes.

I'm not trying to mock Karen Jean-Pierre.
