I read somewhere that he made a few million on them. It blew me away. It does not compute.

It does compute if you realize the buyers were probably foreign governments and businesses. If Trump suddenly gets a $3M check from someone that might raise eyebrows, leak to press, get picked up by law enforcement. Trump makes $3M in sales of an imaginary thing online - well that’s just business.

Okay, that does make more sense.

He's the king of the quick cash injection. He's that last little turd that won't flush, no matter how many frauds and bankruptcies and treasons and sexual assaults he's perpetrated and I Do Not Understand.
