Josh, let me explain Capitalism to you. Sometimes people decide not to do business with you. It's their decision. You know the whole "No Shoes, No Shirt, No Service" thing ? In your case it happens to be "No Principles, No Honesty, No Book" thing. Feel free to Self-Publish

"No one other than President Donald Trump himself is more responsible for Wednesday's coup attempt at the U.S. Capitol than one Joshua David Hawley," wrote .. The Kansas City Star ...

7. Dumbass Hawley acts as if

the government was supposed to publish his stupid book and now only publishes "approved material." Good on Simon & Schuster!

10. With the number of reichwing publishers out there, he can easily find a replacement

He's just playing this for pity
