Amazon Censors Trump Assassination Book Cover

The power Amazon holds over Western culture cannot be denied.

The digital megastore rules over the publishing landscape. Its Prime Video service remains a serious, deep-pocked rival to Netflix. Its swift delivery methods click with our short-attention-span age.

The platform also regularly censors content that doesn’t fit the progressive narrative.

The latest example is a stunner.

Conservative pundit Jack Posobiec co-wrote a book (with Joshua Lisec) recalling the assassination attempt on President Donald Trump’s life just weeks ago.

It’s called “Bulletproof: How a Shot Meant for Donald Trump Took Out Joe Biden.” The title refers to Trump’s triumphant reaction to the attack as well as President Biden’s subsequent withdrawal from the presidential race.

Bulletproof: How a Shot Meant for Donald Trump Took Out Joe Biden is the first complete preliminary investigative report on the attempted assassination of President Donald J. Trump that occurred on July 13, 2024, at 6:11 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time in Butler, PA, USA.

The book will be available Oct. 22, roughly two weeks before Election Day. Pre-sales always loom large over new book titles. Yet when Amazon visitors come to the page they find this image, not the one Posobiec originally intended.

The visual appears to be from an obscure culture magazine called “Kinship.”

Author and cartoonist Scott Adams shared the news via his X account. He called the fake cover a “porn book,” so he’s either mischaracterizing the image or a previous version of the Amazon page featured a different visual.

“You really have to ask yourself, ‘Did that happen by chance?’” Adams said of the mistake, adding the mega-seller also tinkered with one of his titles.

“Two for two,” Adams said with a chuckle. He accused Amazon of throwing curious roadblocks in one of his book’s way. He didn’t elaborate.

The provocateur said a second edition of his 2017 tome “Win Bigly,” recalling Trump’s shocking electoral win, is in the works. Amazon has similarly rigged the book’s release, he claimed. He didn’t share more details, and the 2017 edition appears to feature the book’s proper cover on Amazon.com.

There’s no Amazon update on the book’s second edition.

This isn’t the first time Amazon has interfered with a right-leaning title or inconvenient truth-teller. The platform shared, and then withdrew without warning “Created Equal: Clarence Thomas in His Own Words” three years ago.

The site also attempted to ban “What Killed Michael Brown?” a riveting documentary debunking the media narratives behind the Missouri resident’s 2014 death.

More recently, filmmaker Robby Starbuck claimed the platform yanked his 2024 documentary “The War on Children” for spurious reasons.
