Imagine spending your hard-earned money on merch that features people you despise.

The political merch grift is something I can never understand.

The people making those shirts have a very good hustle though, make a shirt with trump on it and now all the MAGA types are basically throwing their money at you to get their hands on it, and then make one mocking trump,and the people really against trump will do the same
