Donald Trump may not win the election, but he’s stomping Hillary Clinton in Halloween sales.

“He’s outselling Hillary by a landslide,” said Tony Bianchi, manager of Halloween Adventure in the East Village.

“It’s because he’s so iconic. He’s like the Kim Kardashian of politics,” Bianchi said. “Hillary is just a typical politician. She’s boring.”

Given the creepy clown epidemic, why would anyone buy a Hillary mask?

I don’t think that’s an indicator he’s winning the election. A lot of people actually think Trump is the anti-Christ, so dressing up for him as a scary creature isn’t unreasonable to them.

Overheard a young man at the local flea market this morning saying that at a upcoming Halloween party his girlfriend was going as Hillary in a prison outfit with a Trump sticker on her back.

True, lots of people would dress up in Reagan masks, but they weren't Reagan supporters.

It seems that I’ve heard in the past that the Halloween costume “poll” has been quite accurate over the years.

I had posted about this a while back.

Isn’t a traditional indicator of who will win the presidency the candidate with the most mask sales?

I posted about a month ago that it was inconceivable that Hillary masks would outsell Trump masks.

I hope libs aren’t buying them for their kids because they think Trump is scary. It’s a joke.

I so want to trick or treat as Hillary. Haven’t decided. Could walk around with the real emails falling out of my pantsuit. Need to perfect both the cackle and the seizures.

Kids don’t usually buy these. Adults are buying Trump probably as jokes, and also so they can grab girls at the parties, like they used to with bill masks.

If you want to look like an old bag, no need for an Illary mask.

Kids like cartoon witches. A real one is too scary. That’s why Clinton costumes are bombing this Halloween.

I’ve heard of 7-11 coffee cups being a good indicator, but haven’t heard what the sale results WERE.
