Youtubers going for content.
Conceptually, it'll make one f of a collectors item one day there's no way enough will sell to make them common.
In much the same way that Confederate memorabilia is collectable.
As in, "You should avoid anyone who collects this shit. They're probably a white nationalist."
Or you can spray paint your old iPhone with gold coloring, slap a Trump logo on it and sell it on ebay to some unsuspecting MAGA fan for $2,000.
It's not hard to copy Trump's signature ... you could throw that on the phone and charge $5,000 and tell everyone that you bought it at a MAGA rally where Trump signed it in 2024.
If they can grift .... we can all grift harder
He did gut any dept of gov that would go after grifters or hold them accountable.
Something tells me that won't stop someone from getting in trouble for misusing his name. Straight to deportation with you!
Sounds like an easy way out of this hell hole.
As much of a hell hole as this country is and will become, there are other levels to hell that are worse.
In that case, someone should come out with a quality phone and just slap Trump logos all over the damned thing and charge $2,000 for a $500 phone. Run the business until someone tells you to stop.
Sell Trump crap ... it's all crap anyway ... make money on it if people are dumb enough to pay for this shit.
Man you’re right. I was eyeing a fairphone anyway…
Not where I was going for that, more like museum pieces. He's really done a bunch of shit we absolutely should NOT have allowed. A president, releasing a phone, while in office for a grift. Our great grandkids (hopefully) will be walking through the Smithsonian going what the FUCK was going on in the 20's, and one of these e-waste POS will be sitting there staring back at them.
Yeah, I guarantee the people who collect it will also have a sizeable collection of nazi memorabilia too.
“I just find the civil war fascinating.”
Def seems to be a crossover between the two.
And claim they're just history buffs
IDK about that, the Saudis have like a million units sitting in a warehouse somewhere.
