Trump’s digital trading card infomercial proves that the grift is not only real, it’s as cringeworthy AF
If you thought JD Vance‘s jokes were bad – and you’d be quite correct about that – wait until you see the ad Donald Trump released to promote his latest grift – more trading cards.

They’re such a good likeness.
Anyone idiotic enough to buy fifteen digital cards will be sent a physical Official Debate Card, which allegedly comes with a tiny piece of the ‘knockout’ suit that he wore during his debate with Joe Biden, and if you believe that, then you probably deserve to be spending $1500 on nothing.
The sale has already bagged enough money to pay a few lawyers.
Trump has made about $1.7M so far on his latest NFT sale
Trump Digital Trading Cards – America First Edition have seen over 17,000 mints in < 24 hours.
Notably, this is only 4.7% of the total possible supply of 360,000 NFTs.
There has been no secondary action as cards… pic.twitter.com/i9uud2ng4a

It would make more than $35 million if all the cards sold.
The internet wasn’t impressed.

So Trump supporters say they can’t afford groceries but they can buy a $100 set of Trump trading cards?
Are they dumb or just liars?

Trump is a SNL skit. 70 days before the election and huckster Trump is putting out DIGITAL collector cards for $99 each. You don't even get a physical card unless you buy 15 of them. He's a con artist and a joke. Why do you continue to send him money?? https://t.co/tQX5SZd0Yy

I’m voting for a President who isn’t constantly selling junk to vulnerable American patriots to pay legal bills for their multitude of lawsuits and felony charges. ♀️#HarrisWalz2024 pic.twitter.com/wuYIIwjPey

These Trump Digital Trading Cards are a steal at $99. I got a Captain Valtrex which is the second rarest one after the one of Trump knocking out Floyd Mayweather. pic.twitter.com/AiQDHVW0cn

The wonderful @jasemonkey tweaked the ad.
The promotional video for Trump Digital Trading Cards is pretty wild. #TrumpCards pic.twitter.com/rpvgxXoksX

Kamala Harris should put him on retainer.
