That could be the publishing industry’s slogan given what President Donald Trump has done for book sales. The number of political books sold in print is up 27 percent this year from a year earlier. Those 7.55 million copies include blockbusters like Bob Woodward’s “Fear,” which went on sale this month and sold 1.1 million copies its first week. Political book sales are being boosted by authors who appear at events across the country. But demand for Trump books has provided a much-needed jolt for the industry, even if it’s short-lived.
