I for one cannot wait to fork out 99 dollaridoos a piece on building my very own set of Trumptastic trading cards based on images of Mr Trump in his various iconic disguises.

I’m most excited about the laser eye, muscleman Trump!

Even Trumps previous allies think this is a stupid, stupid move/obvious grift.

Not like there were that many of them. For a PR stunt it would not be that expensive or just one donor buying all of them to have dinner with Trump. Half a mil or so ? Pocket money on those circles. Pretty onlyfans girls probably makes that in few months.

Lets see whats the next card run. This could just be a primer for the second part to make them look more desirable. Say million cards priced 199$. That should at least pay some legal expenses.

I wonder if anyone will complain about Trump's (fictional) use of the flag: 4 U.S. Code § 8 - Respect for flag

(d) The flag should never be used as wearing apparel, bedding, or drapery. It should never be festooned, drawn back, nor up, in folds, but always allowed to fall free. Bunting of blue, white, and red, always arranged with the blue above, the white in the middle, and the red below, should be used for covering a speaker’s desk, draping the front of the platform, and for decoration in general.​

No. So long as they are actual nfts, no fraud appears to have happened. Unless this is being used as a tax Dodge, political funding dodge etc. It really is not like ftx.

This will likely turn out to be a pretty transparent money laundering scheme. We shall see I suppose.

Why would he need to launder it? Product created, put up for sale, bought. Trump's cut can go straight into his bank account. Seems pretty straightforward.

The money would not need to be laundered after the NFT scheme as the NFT scheme would be the money laundering operation.

Keep in mind:

"The Republican National Committee paid more than $300,000 in October to a company owned by Donald Trump Jr. to purchase copies of his new, self-published book."

It would be interesting to see who actually bought the latest Trump grift.

This seems like a Trump Steaks like endeavor, except this one sold. I wouldn't be surprised if Trump set up another company to sell NFTs that satirize his original NFTs.

Trump et al get 10% of subsequent sales of the NFTs. If the price goes up, they’ll make millions (potentially).

This should rightfully be viewed as shameless cash-grab and an embarrassment.

For the longest time, I thought the Jon McNaughton paintings were the most "cringe" pro-Trump things I'd ever seen (in fact, the first time I saw them, I thought it was satire), but this may top that lol
