Watch As Amazon Deletes Hundreds Of One-Star Reviews Of Hillary Clinton's New Book

The sad case of a ghost written book, a sordid story, and Amazon trying to make it seem somewhat worthwhile, all in all, making themselves look very stupid, and damaging their brand in the mix. Dumb. The 50% negative would be people who would never buy the book trying to justify why people should not, the other 50% are the Hillarites who would by a used piece of toilet paper if it was claimed to have been near Hillary's butt. Normal American politics at that point.

    That no longer applies due to p-steam caused by Globulwarming. Besides, cllimate hysteria and election hysteria over what all those Others did both absolve her from having to look at all.

    The original insult is "... couldn't pour p*ss out of a boot if the instructions were printed on the heel."

    Their automatic rote destruction costs them nothing. Send a polite inquiry at https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/contac... objecting to the removal of your reviews. If you get something back about 'verified purchasers' then follow up telling them you are. Don't say anything about number of stars or politics and their motivations unless they get obnoxious.

    There are now more 1-star reviews than any others (57%). Here's a favorite:

    2.0 out of 5 starsReview Deleted--Again
    ByBabaLaon September 14, 2017
    I wrote a verified purchase review and it has been deleted 3 times. If Amazon doesn't like what we have to say, don't ask for input.

    Such high-handed pompous behavior is to be expected from a queen bee among the especially privileged oft above the law virtual aristocracy who
    are our Animal Farm more than equal elite betters.

    When Amazon became overtly political (anti Bill of Rights and insanely politically correct) I stopped buying from them. Instead I use them to compare price and give my business to more liberty-minded vendors. That is the free market.

    I think you need to use at least 1 star, otherwise their system doesn't know you rated it.

    There actually are some really laughable ones there now, it is almost as if Amazon issued a challenge to the world, and the world is responding, so they appear to now be using Amazon Math to calculate the averages....

    Seemed like it to me...but they were dismissing it as politically motivated, so a whole here of right wingers came just to post reviews. They have their weapon though "verified buyer", if you didn't buy it, then you should not review it on their site, unless you can provide proof you had it.That's where the shills step in. I bought a dash-cam based on reviews and it was crap. I then looked far and wide and found one that looked like it reviewed well in several places, and it has been awesome.

    Well, they definitely must be making out on Prime, which I love, just because I get around the exorbitant fees some places charge. But they must have one hell of a contract with UPS.

    There is a video floating around of an interviewer she met in some city, she shakes her hand, "so glad to see you", and the moment she asks about Benghazi "read the book", then about 30,000 missing emails "goodbye", then calls security to eject the same woman she was so glad to see 45 seconds earlier. What a bag of guts....

    Yea, I just go with "don't buy it", it is just too much trouble on many levels to buy and return...

    Sorry for the typo... That was supposed to be "Hillary couldn't pour p*ss out of a boot with printed instructions."
