HBO is paying Halperin to Mansplain the '16 Election. UPDATED

[VermontKevin]

Political reporters Mark Halperin and John Heilemann are writing a third installment in their best-selling Game Change series, this one about the 2016 presidential election, and HBO Films has acquired rights for a mini-series adaptation.

The book will tell the behind-the-scenes story of how Donald Trump triumphed over Hillary Clinton to win the presidency, Penguin Press announced Thursday. Halperin and Heilemann were on the road covering the campaign for their Showtime series, The Circus. (A new season premieres on March 19.)

The original Game Change, which peeled back the curtain on the 2008 race between Barack Obama and John McCain (with Sarah Palin in a major co-starring role), hit No. 3 on USA TODAY’s Best-Selling Books list in 2010. Double Down: Game Change 2012 followed and reached No. 13 in 2013.

The new Game Change book (no official title yet) is slated for early 2018, with the mini-series to follow.

Here's an idea, HBO execs.....Scrap this pile of shit written by one sexual harasser to defend another sexual harasser and put the final episodes of Game of Thrones on.

3. Halperin is the one who first announced, right after the election, that HRC had run

a terrible campaign. It immediately took off as the prevailing explanation.

It is total garbage, of course. Hillary ran a great race. But the whole election was hopelessly rigged by the FBI.
