The anti-woke 'patriotic' marketplace set to go public

The anti-woke 'patriotic' marketplace set to go public in $200 million deal: Project backed by Don Jr. promises to promote firm that represent 'freedom' and vows to stop Americans 'giving money to businesses that hate them'
The company launched nationwide seven months ago and now hosts nearly 50,000 'patriotic' vendors and has processed millions of transactions
It's now drawn in conservative heavyweights like Donald Trump Jr. and Blake Masters
'People need to stop giving their money to businesses that hate them. We aren't going to defeat woke corporations by whining on Twitter,' Trump Jr. said




Online marketplace Public Square is set to merge with Omeed Malik's blank check company Colombier Acquisition Group in a $200 million deal as the company launches a full-throttle campaign to give every 'anti-woke' consumer an Amazon-like alternative.

The San Diego-based company launched nationwide seven months ago and now hosts nearly 50,000 'patriotic' vendors and has processed millions of transactions.

It's now drawn in conservative heavyweights like Donald Trump Jr., who serves as an investor and an adviser, and former Arizona Senate candidate Blake Masters, who is an advisor.

I love it.
The 2nd amendment can be ignored because government gave the right, so it isn't a right and it can be taken away.

I would like to see a list of "rights" granted by the Bible.
I bet there is nothing about guns; or even self-protection, turn the other cheek and all that.

There are just not enough idiots to sustain that marketplace. It will go the way of the "Freedom Phone", GAB, Parler, and eventually Truth Social (isn't Trump, as this is happening, trying to get himself out of Truth Social, his own damn site?).

The harsh reality for these morons (the customers) and the grifters (Don Jr., etc...) is that while the grifters will end up with a lot of the morons' money, Public Square is NOT going to be the next Amazon, or e-Bay.

Trump makes all his branded shit in China and Ivanka used the presidency to get patents in China. The only thing that prevents those grifters from a HUGE FACEPLANT is the willful ignorance of their followers.
