Cliff Sims’ ‘Team of Vipers’ continues to climb best sellers list

Leaving both The Wonkey Donkey and Dog Man: Brawl of the Wild in its wake, Cliff Sims’ new book Team of Vipers reached number six on Amazon’s best sellers list by late Tuesday.

Team of Vipers chronicles Sims’ time working in the Donald Trump White House, including his daily encounters with the president and those around him.

Tantalizing excerpts from the book have begun to leak out ahead of Viper’s January 29 release.

The Washington Post provided insight into a fascinating interaction Sims had with White House Chief of Staff John Kelly:

Sims recounts that Kelly once confided to him in a moment of exasperation: “This is the worst [expletive] job I’ve ever had. People apparently think that I care when they write that I might be fired. If that ever happened, it would be the best day I’ve had since I walked into this place.

The outlet also shared a raw look at Trump’s relationship with former speaker Paul Ryan:

“Paul, do you know why Democrats have been kicking your a– for decades? Because they know a little word called ‘loyalty,’” Trump told Ryan, then a Wisconsin congressman. “Why do you think Nancy [Pelosi] has held on this long? Have you seen her? She’s a disaster. Every time she opens her mouth another Republican gets elected. But they stick with her .Why can’t you be loyal to your president, Paul?”

Former New Jersey governor Chris Christie also has a Trump-themed book slated for release on January 29. It has not cracked Amazon’s top 50.
