It appears that the images on the actual NFTs are low quality and taken from small clothing brands websites and photoshopped. It is unclear if they were officially licensed or if they are copyright infringement.

Also this is not being done by Trump Inc, but is being made by a company called NFT INT LLC which has licensed the Trump brand and is listed as operating out of a small Utah strip mall, with an address that does not exist. The company lists it's 'Suite 427' but the mall uses letters to differentiate the stores, but there is a USP Store that rents mail boxes that has numbers like that, and at least 20 other companies registered out of Florida uses that UPS store as it's address, but they found a Utah company that uses that address as well, but that company claims that it has nothing to do with the Trump NFT business. The company also itself does not seem to be registered in Utah. It looks to be registered in Wyoming by a shell company that is used to hide the owners of a number of other businesses.

Who’s dumber—Trump for announcing this or mainstream media for hyping this announcement for an entire news cycle??

What's dumber? The people that ever supported this grifter. What the matter Trumpers, your red flag detector broken in 2016?

I have a new and poorly thought out proposal: if the officers/agents of an LLC can not identify its owners, the state can seize the business’ assets and sell them to real people.

Doesn't surprise me. So many shadow companies/candidates out there.

Joe Kent beat out incumbent Jaime Hererra Beutler in a very contested WA 3rd district primary. He lost in the general in part because he couldn't even fucking tell you what company paid him six digits a year.

Uh huh.

Joe Kent releases documents amid questions over who is paying US House candidate’s salary

Murky details, coupled with Kent's career stints with the Green Berets and the CIA, have raised questions among critics and national media about his employer and its leadership.

This stuff is just shady as shit.

The real question is are there any MAGA artists out there? I really don't know. Artists tend to be a bit crazy, but usually not in that way. I've had conversations with artists where they claimed some truly weird ideas, so I'm guessing that at least a few of them have latched onto the Q stuff.

Being an artist requires some imagination and creativity, though. Those are not traits of the modern conservative.

The best creativity of theirs has been the crackpot conspiracy bullshit they've latched onto, though I have no idea the origin (creator) of most of the bigger ones. It's was just as likely Don Jr on a coke binge as anyone else.
 
Know your customers! As the late W.C. Fields said, "Never smarten up a chump and never give a sucker an even break."
 
Well I really don't know why I'm picturing Trump's office walls at Mar a Lago being plastered with giant blown up posters of those cards. As well I'm envisaging that he autographed every one of them the size of which is only exceeded by his megalomania. It might be because for over four years I've been exposed to how his cult followers have described him and his superhuman abilities that include honorariums like "He tells it like it is" and "he's the best president that ever lived" and "the nation is nothing without his leadership".

Alas, if only they'd for once care to provide factual evidence of all of that nebulously vague bellicose howling at the moon in Trump's name

I don't think you could blow these up to poster size, everything I'm reading is saying that the actual NFT's are really low resolution.

"Although Gionet was once a major Trump supporter in his first two presidential campaigns, he has now apparently switched his allegiance to rapper Kanye West, who has taken to openly praising Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler and denying the Holocaust."

Yeah, fuck that guy. He didn't learn anything, other than that he was rooting for the loser. Now he's just trading one for another.
 
Trump's only selling 45000 of them (supposedly).

And its all random.. you can't pick and choose which one you get unless you wanna play the lottery.

45000 x $99 = $4,455,000

So Trump needs another 4 mil to keep going for this month?

Sounds like a fucking ponzi scheme. Who does he need to pay off? His dumbass lawyers or Russian investors before he's thrown out of a high rise building.

All I can say is that this whole thing is the Trumpiest thing ever.

Starting from the mind-boggling superhero pic that made him look like Homelander with laserbeam eyes (that's either genious or incredibly stupid, if you know what Homelander is about...). Getting in on the whole NFT craze WAY late! Selling a digital item when 98% of your base can barely forward the chain emails that give them their political information. Having some poor Conservative Youth intern scouring the web for photos to doctor. I wonder if there was an edict to magic eraser Trump's gut or if that was just some initiative shown by the intern.

I kind of hope the dude is not spiraling down the drain, I still am hoping for my long shot of himi running 3rd party to take down Desantis, allowing Biden to creak his way to victory. (For the record, I think Biden *might* beat Trump, but Desantis will stomp him....and while I say *long shot*, the GOP does seem to be making breaking away noises. And if they actually do, what would Trump do in response?)
