This Texas man refuses to wear a mask, but will gladly sell you one from his Trump trailer

For just $10, you can wear a face mask with Trump's 2020 campaign slogan on it, one with the coiled rattlesnake from the Gadsden flag and the words “Don’t cough on me" or one that shows Trump as a machine-gun-clutching Rambo (whatever that is).

Don Caple will happily sell you one of those masks, the Los Angeles Times reported, but he refuses to wear one himself.

“They’re a hot-ticket-selling item,” Caple told the Times. “I don’t agree with it. But if they want to buy them, I’m not gonna argue.”

He sells the masks from a Trump-themed trailer in Amarillo, which is about a nine-hour drive from Houston.

Considering who his intended clientele is, the guy probably is going broke.
