One of the companies, Instant Pot Brands, noted that “a portion of the profits from” its forthcoming collection “will be donated to the Trump Presidential Library.” Instant Pot, which makes kitchen and home appliances, said in its release that it will offer a “45/47 Collaboration,” including various items branded with those numbers and Trump’s “Make America Great Again” tagline.

FFS.

How to make your home as gold-plated and gaudy-without-being-tasteful as is Chump's own home, club, oval office, wherever...

And throw more money at Mafia Don Mangolini in the process.

🤢 🤮

Ya know I'm usually the last person to advocate for the destruction of libraries, museums, etcetera but can we burn down Trump's fucking so called library. Then shoot anybody who tries rebuilding the waste of space.

[–] lupusblackfur@lemmy.world 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Honestly, I don't believe a "Chump library" will ever exist....

That fund is just another bribe entry point for those choosing to use that path. Certain he's taking any/all monies in that fund strictly for himself.

🤷‍♂️ 🤦‍♀️

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Not saying it necessarily will exist while he is alive, but let's not pretend that someone won't build one to try to whitewash his image like with the Reagan and Nixon libraries.

[–] Infinite@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, but what papers will they house? Articles about daily infographic briefings, torn up or shredded records, and deleted Signal chats?

Also, it would be hard to build in his home state of EVERY SINGLE CIRCLE OF HELL. 😐

will be donated to the Trump Presidential Library

How much can colouring books and crayons possibly cost?

[–] imrighthere@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 weeks ago

Every penny you have.

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 2 points 2 weeks ago

More than you think, especially when you have to constantly replace the crayons. People will eat them.

Was this decided before or after the Nazi salute and trump sending US citizens to concentration camps.

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

People make money off collectors of Nazi paraphernalia. In fifty or 80 years, this trash will be worth millions to "collectors."

Just carry a sharpie and add your own swastika to improve the product. ez clap

I was really hoping this was The Onion..

[–] Noite_Etion@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Trump killed the onion, where does satire go when reality is this fucked.

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

In my area, sometimes I’ll see people selling MAGA shit by the side of the road. I’ve considered doing it and sending the proceeds to the ACLU or the Southern Poverty Law Center.

[–] normalexit@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You could sell literally anything else.

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

True, but it wouldn’t be as ironic. I like the idea of tricking fascists into supporting causes they hate.

[–] normalexit@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

I recently took a trip to Tennessee and there were unfortunately quite a few MAGA stores. They also sold Trump crap at the normal tourist trap sort of stores.

It was a little ironic that most of those tourist traps were run by Indian families.

Historically, Nazi collaborators were executed.

Unless they were of particular value, like rocket scientists. I'm not aware of MBAs and CEOs being held in such value.
