[h=6]- SEPTEMBER 18, 2016 -[/h][h=1]ICYMI: WAPO: “HILLARY CLINTON AND TIM KAINE HAVE WRITTEN A DEPLORABLE CAMPAIGN BOOK”[/h]
“Much like the Clinton-Kaine ticket, this book contains no new ideas and no solutions for solving America’s most pressing needs. The book (much like the ticket) is nothing but a greatest hits collection of failed policies and proposals that benefit Washington's insiders but leave the rest of us behind. Donald J. Trump is the only candidate who has the leadership to end the rigged system and make America great again.” – Jason Miller, Senior Communications Advisor, Donald J. Trump For President
Hillary Clinton And Tim Kaine Have Written A Deplorable Campaign Book

By the time I finished this book, I resented its existence.
“Stronger Together,” ostensibly written by Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine — they are listed as authors and each provides a brief, first-person introduction explaining how hard their parents worked, and a brief, first-person conclusion explaining how hard they themselves work — is a self-confessed cut-and-paste job of campaign fact sheets, speeches and op-eds. That sets rather modest expectations. Yet, even by that standard, and the low bar for candidates’ campaign books overall, “Stronger Together” is an embarrassment, sloppy, repetitive, dutiful and boring. This is a book that, 237 pages in, actually thanks readers for making it that far.
I don’t understand why this book was compiled — “written” is too generous a verb — or why it was published. If you really want to dive into the Clinton/Kaine promises and proposals, the campaign website awaits you. You don’t need to wade through this book. No one does. No one should. The only people I imagine reading it are future fact-checkers, masochistic book critics and the most strung out of political junkies.
…
The deja vu is plentiful, not just because we’ve heard so much of this stuff during the campaign, but because Clinton and Kaine repeat themselves, often verbatim, throughout the book.
…
The first few times, it’s vaguely amusing, as though you’ve caught an embarrassing mistake. But then you remember that to feel shame, the authors would have to care. This book was slapped together, barely edited and placed before us quickly, as if to cross one more item off a to-do list, or meet some overwhelming yet imaginary demand. But why rush a book no one’s going to read?
