Did you know Trump is selling an "Official Merry Christmas hat" ?

[dixiegrrrrl]

It is the same red MAGA hat that has always been sold, except has teeny ornaments on it, and says Merry Christmas on the back.,
the SAME one. For $45.00.
Which is the price also of a "collectible ornament" which is an ornament size ..hat.

1. X3 million. Trump is making a mint off the people whose healthcare

he is taking away.

[AJT]

2. So the site is claiming the hats are made in the USA.

Weren't they made in China?

[dhol82]

3. Oh, FFS!

How much is he making on this scam?

[tanyev]

4. All proceeds go to the campaign*

*the campaign to replenish DJT's bank accounts

[dixiegrrrrl]

6. It is legal for him to pay legal expenses out of donations.

So the yahoos who are shelling out big bucks for junk are, in effect, paying for his lawyers to defend
any of the growing number of lawsuits.

5. PT Barnum must crying in heaven right now.

"Why couldn't I have born a few decades later! Why?!?!?"

7. I'll wait for the commemorative plate..

or the dartboard.

[FM123]

8. He has the nerve to take $45 from folks

who might not even be able to put food on the table?

[lunasun]

10. No one is being forced to make stupid holiday purchases

[NastyRiffraff]

9. And the Deplorables will plunk down $45

They have NO IDEA what's going to happen to them if that tax bill manages to pass and they'll be fishing in their seat cushions for loose change.

[FM123]

12. Exactly!

13. I suppose they think it's a collectable.

Those hats and ornaments are crap that can't be resold at a swap meet.

I've got a commemorative coin from Reagan sitting at home in a file cabinet (along with the letter congratulating G-Grandma for reaching the ripe old age of 100 back in 1984) that I ended up with as the executrix to my Grandmother's estate in the late 90's - no one wanted it, not even in Orange County, CA when I put household items I couldn't find homes for up for consignment (and later eBay in the mid 2000's) to settle the estate.

And it's still not worth the postage to send as a Holiday gag gift to my BIL who is basically a real-life Alex Keaton gone to fat as a district bank manager.

They're spending money on crap that brings less happiness than a Pixar Movie night with the kids. Their loss.

Always looking to make an extra buck.
