As of Friday morning, the site selling the non-fungible tokens (NFTs) says they are sold out, and links to purchase the digital cards are no longer available.
OpenSea Data, which tracks the sales and markets for NFTs, indicated there were 45,000 of the Trump cards initially made available for purchase for $99 each. The Trump digital cards were the top trending item on the site as of Friday morning.

Digital border wall sections.
Spot on.
Politics is perception. And the look this gives off reeks of a pathetic money grab. Like something you’d see on a late-night infomercial. What makes it worse was his BIG ANNOUNCEMENT! While our country burns Trump is making a quick buck. Sad.
Second Edition, $199 each.
It's not as traditional as financing a political campaign with lobbyists and corporate donations, but truth be told, these kinds of people hate him, and US. And that's why I'll be happy to vote for him again, first term errors aside.
What really bothered a lot of people is the "MAJOR ANNOUCEMENT" teaser, which the vast majority of folks assumed would be something related to his candidacy, problems confronting the country, etc.. So when he posted this MAJOR ANNOUCEMENT and it was just these NFT's, they were ticked.
The fact that he actually put something out later in the day that was substantive, after deliberately sucking all the oxygen out of the room with the NFT's, kind of makes it worse because the NFT story, quite predictably, buried the substance.

These Trump has marketed are limited edition so “collectable”.....if your into such things.
Just like baseball cards for instance but it’s a digital product.
A little too close to cryptocurrency to suit me.
But just like anything else......it’s worth what someone is willing to pay for it, digital or not.
“MAJOR ANNOUCEMENT”
If you understand DJTs ego it makes perfect sense.
LoL!
Who’s laughing now 🐀’s…😂
I really don’t get why people are losing their minds over this. It doesn’t seem any worse than a candidate selling bumper stickers or hats. NFTs are pretty stupid and about a year past their prime but people crying over this seem a bit phony
He is a private citizen. He is a businessman now. Why the hell shouldn’t he engage in business????
he’s no fred astaire.......lol
I don’t see any reason for the fuss. This is absolutely NO different from the hundreds of emails with big, red, above the fold text saying “TRUMP NEEDS YOUR HELP NOW FOR A MAJOR EFFORT” or whatever it says at any time.
Don’t get me wrong. I think it is a silly thing. And I don’t have an issue with those who roll their eyes when they saw it and said “Oh, come on!” Heck, I did that myself. But for me, it ended there.
But there is no denying that some kind of money was raised from it, as this article pointed out.
It is my observation that the same people who are making a big deal about this are the same people who are trying to bring Trump down and don’t want to see him run.
Plain and simple.
Leftists SURELY don’t want to see Trump run (and thinking people should ask themselves why that is the case).
I think the people who are supposedly on the conservative side who are bashing this and making a mountain out of a molehill are the same people we see every single day trying to denigrate and bring down Trump .
They should man up and admit they don’t want to see him as a candidate, and have been that way from the beginning, instead of this “Oh, this is the last straw...” claim that we see.
But they won’t, because to them, it would compel them to make a stand.
Could it be, in a weird twist, that Trump himself is suffering from TDS?
Your math is wrong. It is $4,455,000.
Truth social just posted that in the sell out President Trump made 4.4 million. Chump change but a very nice start. And will probably help pay for A few rally necessities.
No investment portfolio is complete without a strong position in these NFT's.
There are risks associated with investing in securities. Investing in stocks, bonds, Trump NFT's, exchange traded funds, mutual funds, and money market funds involve risk of loss. Loss of principal is possible. Some high risk investments may use leverage, which will accentuate gains & losses.
Laughs last.

Yes, it came across as a troll for conservatives.
A few hours before he released a formal video statement attacking censorship and government collusion with Big Tech. That isn’t being covered.
It was not a fundraiser, third party.
