A promotional event for former White House press secretary Sean’s Spicer’s book at a BJ’s Wholesale Club in Massachusetts has reportedly been canceled “due to the political climate.”

“We got word last Friday the store was canceling ‘due to the political climate,’ ’’ a spokesperson for Regnery Publishing, the publisher for Spicer’s new book, said in a statement obtained by Fox News.

“Of course, we were very disappointed, but also surprised since we have had such a terrific response to all of the other events we have scheduled around the country,” the spokesperson continued.

According to the publication, there is no word on whether the Seekonk event, which was scheduled for Saturday, will be revisited in the near future as Spicer continues to promote his new book, “The Briefing,” between now and September.

“After two different reporters called the store today to find out why the event had been canceled, we received a note from corporate saying they wanted to proceed as originally planned,” the spokesperson said. “However there seems to be some confusion because the store is still telling people who call that the event has been canceled.”

This Seekonk store has reportedly hosted numerous promotional events for celebrity stars’ book signings, but it remains unclear if the venue has ever hosted similar events for a political guest, according to Fox News.

Spicer's canceled event comes as current and former members of the Trump administration continue to face backlash from the public.

Earlier this month, a woman publicly confronted then-Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Scott Pruitt while he was eating lunch and urged him to resign.

Days later, former White House chief strategist Stephen Bannon was confronted in a Richmond, Va., bookstore by a woman who called him a “piece of trash.”

Last month, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, who took over Spicer's role after he left, was asked along with her family to leave a restaurant in Virginia in protest of the administration's stance on transgender troops in the military.
