Donald Trump is a serious presidential candidate who is absolutely not short of cash, and if the video he posted on social media Tuesday morning makes you think otherwise, that’s your problem.

Yes, that’s Trump, hoping to win the race to become leader of the free world, telling his followers about an exciting opportunity to buy “digital Trump trading cards” featuring images of the candidate with a halo over his head, wearing boxing gloves, praying in front of another image of himself (?), holding a giant bitcoin, and more. Every single one of them can be yours for the low price of $99. Worried about how complicated purchasing these pieces of “American history” will be? Don’t worry. “It’s really easy to buy,” Trump tells viewers. “All you need is an email address and a credit card or cryptocurrency.” (And don’t worry about scams!)
But wait: You haven’t heard the best part yet. Not only will you receive a physical trading card (for every 15 digital cards purchased), but you will also receive “an authentic piece” of the suit Trump wore during his debate with “I am Joe Biden.” “People call it my gorgeous suit,” he claims. “I don’t know why, but that’s why they call it,” he says, not for the first time. “So we cut up the gorgeous suit and you get a piece of it and we sign five of them at random, a real collector’s item. This is something you can give to your family, your children, your grandchildren.”
Thinking about spending $7,425 plus tax on 75 trading cards? Then you’ll be invited to Trump’s “gala dinner” at his club in Jupiter, Florida. It may sound like a poor man’s Mar-a-Lago, but don’t think about it too long.
From Threat to Democracy to Report for Duty, Sir!
