From the Semaphore article: 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.

    Why does this fuck want to be involved in cell phones and kitchen appliances?

      Licensing his stupid name has been his business for years. He hasn’t “developed” anything in decades.

      Sell a shitty $170 phone for $500 to a bunch of idiots? Easy money. Similar to his Trump Steaks scam. Sell dollar store Steak’Ums at Spencers Gifts, and command a premium price for just long enough for a few people to buy, and then bankrupt the “business”. Similar to [any other trump “brand” scam].
