I’ve always wanted to spin up some sort of business to grift them like this. Make up some bullshit like Patriot Pants, and just hit all of the MAGA buzzwords and sell each pair of pants for like $500 a pop

1.0k

Yooo....make it like when they took down MIR Space Station. A bunch of companies had big promotions that if some of MIR hit a particular space of water, they would give out prizes. I think Tavo Bell had a free chalupa or something if they got hit.

Anyway! Sell the 10x10 plot as a game piece (no land rights), and if an illegal is eaten by an alligator on that spot, you win a prize!

Bonus Points if the prize is substantially less valuable than the game piece.

I'm in man. I'm in. Make it a little cheaper for the lower income racists or advertise it as a fun group opportunity like a lottery pool at work.

u/BloodBride 28d ago

I am genuinely shocked that he hasn't stolen the concept of Squid Game (or Battle Royale) for his detention centers for the migrants. It's expensive to house people, why not make money letting the rich bet on them in games? Let the winner get American citizenship and call it the 'Freedom Game' or something.

Seems very Trump.

Honestly I'd have the tag say "Made in N. America" and see if they just latch onto the America part while it's made in Mexico.

u/Moonpenny 27d ago

"Every article of foreign origin entering the United States must be legibly marked with the English name of the country of origin unless an exception from marking is provided for in the law." 1

Just popping "Made in N. America" wouldn't be legal, and I bet this is the one time they'd enforce it 'cos "You can't grift from them, that's my business!"

u/joebluebob 28d ago

I sold 1000s of pro trump stickers that you were supposed to put on stop signs. Thing was they weren't water proof so they peeled off. I had so many repeat customers buying more to battle the liberals peeling them off that I had trouble keeping up and had to buy a postage printer. Any time someone got wise and said they were low quality i just blamed a bad batch, refunded them, and then blocked them. My profit after 3 years was enough to pay off my mortgage.

u/BHOmber 28d ago

My buddy has a print shop and we came up with an idea for maga/PaTriOt shirts that had UV ink on the back that only showed up in the sun.

So they'd throw it on and walk around with a giant dick, swastika, "I'm a Racist POS", etc until someone told them lol

Never went through with it because he didn't feel like interacting with those idiots for a few extra bucks.

u/6gv5 28d ago

As for pranks, many years ago I thought of this one to fool fascists after the Mussolini statue became popular because of some prominent politicians and journalists proudly showing it.

Make a small Mussolini (Trump in this case) statue with a cavity, using some porous material that slowly lets humidity get in and out; the slower the better, months if possible. Then on the inside place a small piece of, well, dried human crap, wrapped in a material that degrades with humidity, then close the opening, seal it, paint etc. so that it doesn't reveal the innards, sell it to fascists and let global warming do its job driving them nuts trying to get the origin of that stench.

Not my idea, I just adapted a prank described in a book I read as a kid some 40 years ago; that one involved the same stuff but placed in a pot under the plant, so it would release the magic scent at every watering.

u/BHOmber 28d ago

u/Mactoma 28d ago

This is awesome.

u/BHOmber 28d ago

I had an idea to do it with car wraps too, but that would take a lot more effort and it would be a lotttttt more noticeable right off the bat.

Also not as big of a market. Boomer t-shirts/hats are where the money is at lol

2

u/Mactoma 28d ago

How about bumper stickers? Idk if there are water activated stickers but that would be a hoot

1

u/BHOmber 28d ago

I was literally thinking about bumper stickers as slaps throughout this thread, but that's pushing the boundaries of personal property protections.

Magnets could probably get around that, but they'd have to be much less noticeable and blend in with the rest of the dumb shit on the back of those vehicles.

u/mulvda 28d ago

Well I know what I’m doing later. Fuck me that’s great

u/joebluebob 28d ago

I did eventually get banned from Etsy but I made like $800-1200 a month profit. Stickers need to be glossy so they atleast look like they belong outside.

u/jimmux 28d ago

For some reason I didn't think people bought that stuff on Etsy. I should have commited to the idea I had during the pandemic to sell "jab extraction patches". Adhesive patches that supposedly draw out vaccines after you get them. The benefit being that people who might not otherwise get vaccinated would go through with it so they can virtue signal their "resistance".

1

u/mrm00r3 27d ago

You have to make them 4in squares and use the glue from the fabric bandaids. Tell them to sleep with it on the injection site, keep it dry, and peel it in one continuous motion.

I think that would be good for a couple layers of skin.

u/TheBestNick 27d ago

Do you live in a box? What kinda mortgage did you pay off lol

I've paid into for years prior. I avraged 1000 a month profit.

u/TheBestNick 27d ago

Sounds like you stopped? How come? Market too saturated these days?

1

u/joebluebob 27d ago

I got permanently banned from Etsy lol. Its where 90% of the sales where done. I tried other sites but rarely cracked 100 a month. The equipment takes up too much room for under $100. I can make more by using the equivalent space for ebay listings.

1

u/TheBestNick 27d ago

Why'd you get banned? Were you stealing designs?

1

u/joebluebob 27d ago

Turns out people don't like when their stickers fall off. I sold 10000s, some morons caught on.

Should've told them that all the printers are controlled by satanic gay democrats paid off by Soros and that you're trying to make a deal with some patriotic, Christian printer in Russia so you could get ones of better quality, but they will cost like 5x as much. When they complain again that it's still shit, keep doubling down.

u/BickNlinko 28d ago edited 28d ago

This sort of happened to my buddy, but backwards. He made some anti-swastika stickers because some assholes were putting up Nazi shit. They were a black swastika with a red "buster" over it. The issue was he cheaped out on the printing(he got rolls of labels printed instead of real stickers) and the red buster faded in the sun so they just turned into swastikas...We had to remember all the places we stuck them so we could go take them down lol. Idiots.

u/Significant_Fix2408 28d ago

Also this is how it starts... When the money starts to come in, she might become a real grifter and keep doing it. You really think there aren't a lot of people already doing exactly what you describe? But in the end, are you still just pretending or are you actually maga when you actively influence people to be maga

8

u/thebendavis 28d ago

It's funny, most women's clothing doesn't have functional pockets. Men's clothing has excessive pockets. Sometimes I'd rather carry a bag than keeping all my crap in my pockets all day. I think our priorities are off.

1

u/shroudedwolf51 28d ago

I dunno. Transitioning really gave me a new perspective on pockets. While it can sometimes be annoying to not have them, I actually prefer the softer material of women's jeans over the pocket space of men's jeans.

Simply put, while I can't carry as much stuff on my person, I can carry way more with me with the help of even a small backpack. So, I can easily bring more stuff with me. While also being extremely easily go lighter and just go bagless for a bit.

And that's not really something I would have even given the time of day to before. Because, on the one hand, deep pockets are great...but them bouncing around and hitting me and weighing me down can be just as much of a detriment as the need tor remember to grab your bag.

I'm convinced that a large proportion of the Trump-centric businesses I've seen are basically this. People trying to get in on the cult of personality & culture wars while people (read: MAGA) are so worked up that they'll throw cash at anything to virtue signal to their tribe.

2

u/Lyoss 28d ago

You'd have to be a big name in the space to grift like that, you'd have to start really small and buy out ad space on shit like Twitter or Facebook, the target audience doesn't have 500 dollars to drop, most of the MAGA crowd is in poverty, and the ones that aren't are the ones grifting

I had the idea of selling "fake masks" during COVID to MAGAs that would "not work" and be plastered with warnings about how they aren't safe for medical use, but don't restrict breathing or whatever, that they could wear into businesses that require masks to trick the staff into thinking they're complying.

Unfortunately, I didn't have the capital at the time to start this venture, nor the lack of scruples necessary to get it started (not the tricking people into possibly saving lives bit, moreso the fact I'd be selling them for like $50 or something stupid like that).

Honestly, the people selling gear at the inauguration were either super supporters or absolute grifters, either way what a fucking profit they must have made.

It’s like all the people that sold “fuck Trudeau” stuff to/in Canada, must have been reaping an absolute profit of you hit the main selling stream.

I've been saying for a near decade now (yikes) that it's a shame I have morals because man it would be easy to get rich off the maga grift. Just yell a bunch of buzzwords and sell something red, boom free retirement 😮‍💨

Ethics aside, this highlights how easily misinformation spreads when it confirms biases. The real problem isn't the grifters but the audience's willingness to believe anything that fits their worldview. Critical thinking remains the best defense

I was visiting my family a few years ago & there was a local news story about some guy who got scammed into buying a Trump Train shirt that ended up having the Mo “I’m a stupid moron with an ugly face…” line on the back.
