        That’s why it’s a really good cash grab. They’re selling $5 knives with the word trump printed on them for $70 dollars after a 50% discount. They say the knives are rare (only 150 ever made or some bs). their 5 iq brains will be all over this shit

        The generalizing of 200M people y’all do is crazy to me. Carrying a knife is very common in rural areas.

        But yeah they white labeled a cheap combat knife they thought idiots would think is cool so we’re going to start seeing news stories about neo Nazis starting a spree of stabbings with trump combat knives 🙄

        There is a pretty clear pattern not just here but on Reddit as well (but much moreso here) of allowing jokes and memes about guillotining people and other violence and nobody cares; but then to turn around and lose their shit over this.

      A money grab for sure but not just… His base is openly getting ready to reclaim the election they already “know” will be stolen. Golden Sneakers and “my” bible are cash grabs ok; combat knife…

          Beyond the item itself, my view is that the J6 mob attacked the capitol by reading between the lines/signs of their messiah. What signal does this give?

            I think you’re reading too much into this specifically but there’s definitely a lot to say about why Trump appeals to gravy seals in the first place.

      Dude I’m not sure where trump hosts the streams of his rallies but whereever it is it has some of the weirdest, sketchiest ads right next to his face
