Simple….
He NEEDS the money……
(Legal Bills…Judgements)
And?
It IS who he is…..
Former President Trump is promoting the sales of $59.99 Bibles, $399 sneakers and $99 “Victory47” cologne.
Why it matters: The presumptive GOP presidential nominee is facing a cash crunch as he stacks up legal fees and as his campaign finances lag well behind President Biden’s.
- “It seems like Trump is most concerned right now about non-campaign expenses,” UCLA communications professor Tim Groeling said.
- “So raising money that can be used for those is pretty urgent,” he added.
Between the lines: The money garnered from sneaker and Bible sales will not go toward Trump’s presidential campaign, according to the websites where they’re sold.
- While the merchandise uses his name, likeness and image through a paid license, they are not distributed or sold by Trump, The Trump Organization “or any of their respective affiliates or principals.”

My Name Is Jack says
Who isn’t?
Trump?
That’s silly. Of course he is “ rich” compared to most people in this country.
jamesb says
Yea ….
You Right Jack….
SOOOO DAMB rich like I’m saying that he’s out hawking sneaker and bibles and says NO fucking bank will lend him money?
So rich he’s gotta cry to a appellate court to cut his bond bill…
So rich his lawyer’s say he don’t have the money put down on the latest judgement bond?
Getting less rich every day with his new public stock offer on its way down to $2 a share maybe…..
Yup….
He’s Richer than most Americans….
I think that’s small comfort to the guy, who’s afraid the bottom is falling out from his rich ass…
But he can see sneakers and bible to more suckers who haven’t brought his penny stock…..
New sucker’s born EVERY DAY…..

Idiotic .
Another pathetic example of you just repeating something over and over and then concluding with a mishmash of juvenile palaver.
Only a damn IDIOT and let me repeat that so you get the full effect only a damn IDIOT would claim that Trump isn’t a wealthy man.
Super rich ?No
But he’s certainly a” rich” man as that term is commonly used.
jamesb says
Seriously?
Who gives a shit if Trump thinks he’s rich?
