    Donald Trump, Jr., a man who may or may not be subject to a witch’s curse, has sold a book.

    As you probably don’t recall, because every day is approximately 27 years long, Trump was shopping the book last year but reportedly received a “chilly reception” from publishing houses. But now, with the help of his lawyer/agent/paid friend Tom Winters, Trump has at last achieved the dream of every MFA student, lifestyle influencer, and child of a possibly-illiterate white supremacist tyrant: publishing a book.

    Center Street Books, an imprint of Hachette, will publish the book, which will “will focus on politics, current events and the future of the MAGA movement,” late this year. The real question, of course, is will this remarkable achievement finally make his father love him?
