Hahah. Get off of social media. Loss of voters? Not everyone in the country is all politics all the time. No one outside of the bubble world is talking about this and if they are it’s just to have a good laugh. Maybe even laughing at Trump which, by the way, helps to make him into a person and not the evil villain caricature that the media has created.
Beyond the ridiculousness of purchasing a digital trading card, what the hell do you do with it that you can’t do just pulling a free image of what he’s selling off the internet and making it your phone or laptop wallpaper or whatever?
I happily voted for Trump twice. I’ll vote for him a third time if he’s the nominee, but I’m really not in the mood for all this silly crap with Brandon burning down the country.
> I think it’s weird, but I think trading cards are weird, too. <
What makes this whole thing ultra-weird is that these Trump trading cards aren’t even real. They’re like Bitcoin, stored digitally in a virtual wallet. So you can’t go to a convention and set up a trading table like you could with, say, baseball cards.
Anyone who would change their mind about voting for Trump over these trading cards is pretty foolish in my mind. Seriously? Talk about loyalty a mile wide and less than an inch deep.
I thought the cards were ridiculous, too. But really who cares? It’s such a minor thing in the scheme of things. This won’t move the political needle an iota either way. You think any significant number of voters are aware of the cards or care? I don’t.
Sucker….born…minute
Love it and agree!
IMO, the amount of dollars isn’t what matters to Trump-—
A test of his supporters matters more.
Trump should have stuck to having his kid with no artistic ability sell paintings for 500K each while he was in office.....
Oh wait that’s Biden.
We need to be honest. Trump was a great President, helped make America great again, stopped Hillary, and lots of other magnificent things. His SCOTUS picks helped get Roe overturned, and lots of other great things. When Trump is on, he's on.
But we can get MORE. And we won't if something isn't done about Trump's Achilles - his personnel instincts, which beget an inability to administer policy. They're a virtual dumpster fire. Sessions, the Mooch, Bolton, Tillersn, Mattis, Giuliani, McCabe, Nikki Haley, Sally Yates, Flynn, Hope Hicks, Reince Priebus, Rod Rosenstein. Oh, and Pence...and endorsing McCarthy. And PA and Alabama primary nonsense.
And this is not an inconsequential Achilles. Indeed, picking Rudy to lead the stolen election charge was a disaster. He may have been America's Mayor but he was out of his league when arguing cases. In fact he was by many accounts hung over and that's why his hair dye was trickling down his face. Maybe that deck was stacked against him, but our "ace" pitcher had no heat and the skipper kept him on the mound out of loyalty.
I love poking they eyes of the MSM. I love memes. But I want lower taxes, a secure border, enemies of America that fear is, and peace and prosperity at home.
Ignoring a problem won't make it go away, and this is a big problem. Re-electing Trump is tough enough, but I don't want to spend four years crossing my fingers on him selecting competent pit bulls to administer MAGA.
Please.
Meanwhile ever-lasting devotion to a very flawed man is not a sign of emotional and mental problems.
Riiigghht.
It’s called the straw that broke the camel’s back. That’s what I see from many people who have seen the light the last month. Some of them, this is that straw. Some had them last month. Maybe some earlier.
I doubt there are many who dropped Trump just because of this one (face-palm embarrassing) thing. It’s just the tipping point.
Wow! You have family members who now won’t vote Trump over some digital trading cards? That’s it for them (as the country goes to Hell and Trump is the first president in a very long time who actually fought back against the swamp)? Just wow!
There is always a “straw” and a “camel’s back” that is so easily broken.
He should have had a $5000/plate dinner in New York. That would have made sloppy Steve happy
A single Snickers bar would be a better thing to buy.
I’m sure Trump will release more to dilute the value of those sold today.
He wouldn’t want anyone other than him getting rich off of his NFT grift.
Speaking of “donating to charities”-——
Many of the DEMS who got $$$$$$$$ from FTX as donations are making noises that “They will donate those funds to charity”....
Let’s parse this:
FTX takes “investor $$$$$$ & buys lavish homes & ‘donates’ BILLIONS to political campaigns-—Dems get 16 TIMES the amounts the Reps get——
Then those donations get “outed” & those DEMS say they will donate the funds to ‘charity’.
The end result is that INVESTORS FUNDS end up being a tax deduction for a bunch of sleasy politicians with $$$$$$ stolen from people who earned it!!!!!!!
What did I leave out????
The “shot”?
/s
Folks,
Think about this. Trading cards are an old fashioned thing. Maybe one of things that made America great.
What was on the card? stats and information besides the picture.
It is ANOTHER method of communicating and getting beyond the media. It is a way of getting to the youth and WE NEED a way to get to youth.
Buy a card and give it to a youth.
STop complaining, get higher ground of the goal.
