I wouldn't be surprised if they have faked sales, but I also wouldn't be at all surprised at his followers just giving him their money like this. Now quickly closing in on $3.4 million in sales.

Someone even bought this one for around $2,500 USD.

Spoiler!


It is a pretty, pretty sad state of affairs.

For some reason, I have no idea why, I am on the Trump GOP fundraising email list, the utterly absurd lies they tell to try and get money is so transparent, 'donate 2,500 and you can have dinner with Trump at Mar A Lago' so I really doubt his mostly elderly none to bright followers are buying any of this, I suspect he would make more money from his demographic sending them 'signed' posters by snail mail and the 3 or 4 million totals are wholly made up, my guess is he is selling them to himself to try and get the interest up, which is pretty much how nfts work anyway

I'm pretty sure within a few weeks he will be selling 1 square foot deeds to his ancestral lands back in Scotland along with a signed certificate stating you are legally (not applicable in the US UK or other third party countries listed below) 'The Laird (insert first name here)_____ Trump'

Maybe he does so well on these cards, he decides he doesn't need the headache of running for President again?

it's what always should have happened. Losing in 2016 and just going back to grifting people, promoting wacky stuff and filing for bankruptcy every now and then. You know, the typical Trump stuff, just without dumbing down the political discourse and destroying a country. But those Hillary emails, you know ...

I never understood NFT's but this should delegitimize them once and for all.

Grifters know how to grift, I guess. How much were they?
