It is coming out on Amazon in July of this year talking about such things as his Mexican gun-smuggling. ---

Cool. Maybe he can be president of the NRA after Oliver North retires! ---

[Moderating] The mere existence of this book might be a topic appropriate for Cafe Society, but any discussion after that point is going to be about the content of the book, a Great Debates topic. Moved. ---

[Not moderating] I’ve always found it telling that, of all the many conservative criticisms of Obama, the only one with any basis in fact at all is that he didn’t do enough gun control. ---

In April, the author released “The Scandalous Presidency of Barack Obama”. 3 months later he is, what?.. repackaging April’s book? Remembering something he forgot to add? Anyway, he is going to have to find a new subject. > **[Matt Margolis: books, biography, latest update](https://www.amazon.com/stores/Matt%20Margolis/author/B001JRZZKI)** > > Follow Matt Margolis and explore their bibliography from Amazon.com's Matt Margolis Author Page. ---

> [@ned12](#): > > It is coming out on Amazon in July of this year talking about such things as his Mexican gun-smuggling. It appears that this is the paperback / revised edition of the book he published in 2016. If you look at his [other works](https://www.amazon.com/Matt-Margolis/e/B001JRZZKI), he appears to be a polemicist making his milk money off of bashing Obama (and Harry Reid). I’m guessing he’s running low on cash, and doesn’t have a new book in him, so it’s time to squeeze a few more bucks out of his existing book hoping the red-meat crowd will pony up again. Good luck, Matt! ---

Seems like a solid bet. If there’s one thing we’ve found out since 2007, it’s that nobody ever went bankrupt peddling bullshit about Obama or Clinton. ---
