Here's what is happening:

The book gets headlines and heavy media exposure, less than 3 months from
election day.
The primary sources of the information contained in the book have denied the
Suskind's claims.
Suskind offers his personal "opinion" that they did so because they are
afraid of having to testify.
The "truth", whatever it is, will come out ...... after the election.
Meanwhile, the damage has been done. The yet unsubstantiated claims have
stuck in many people's minds.

That pretty much sums it up. When that fellow - I think his name was
Epstein - wrote the first Kennedy assassination book, many people of
conspiratorial bent took it for gospel because, after all, somebody
wrote a book, so it must be right.
In that case an industry was created. That won't happen here.
Then, to further what SW said, all kinds of "dots" started appearing.
Didn't matter that some of the dots were imaginary, and others had
nothing to do with the assassination. They could be connected into a
picture that satisfied the paranoia of the viewer.
Oh, BTW, if you question their picture, you are put by them into one
of two categories:
1. Your are too stupid to see the obvious picture drawn by the dots.
2. You are part of the conspiracy, thus another dot.
