Conservative mocked for book-ban rebuttal bemoaning lack of Republican reads in libraries

The political party that keeps trying to make books bans happen is outraged that libraries won’t carry their books, a new interview shows.

Hedge fund CIO James Fishbank appeared on Fox News Friday afternoon to offer his rebuttal to mounting outrage over book bans. He held up Vice President Kamala Harris’ book “The Truth We Hold” and former Vice President Mike Pence’s “So Help Me God.”

“There’s something deeply wrong,” Fishbank said, “There’s such a large discrepancy between the two.”

Fishbank was referring to his Free Press analysis of 35 of the nation’s largest public library districts, in blue and red states, that found significantly fewer “conservative” books on the shelves.

While Harris’ memoir appeared in 56 percent of libraries Fishbank canvassed, Pence’s could be found in only 6 percent, he said.

Fishbank argued that there was a liberal bias in public institutions that reached into America’s educational system.

“Ask the teacher what they think about President Trump,” Fishbank declared. “Nine times out of 10 you will not get a positive answer.”

However, when Fishbank’s theory reached X users Friday, they had a different theory for Harris’ book appeared in more than half the libraries he surveyed and Vivek Ramaswamy’s appeared in 0 percent.

“Vivek wrote a book?” wrote Bill deMayo. “God, that must be awful.”

“Nobody wants to read a book by Mike Pence on how mayonnaise is made,” posited @CreampieorDie.

“Advice to Conservatives,” offered @WestLA24. “Write better books…Tell fewer lies.”

“Not satisfied with dictating which books are banned from libraries,” wrote Kyle Birling, “these people are now trying to dictate which books have to be in libraries.”’

Quipped Frank Wells, “‘Where can I find the Mike Pence book?’ asked no library patron, ever.”
