It's so transparently a way for Trump to extract money from his constituents that a part of me wants to respect it.

But no one deserves to be scammed. I don't really get along with Republicans, I gotta admit I don't really like most Republicans now, and I find the Republican platform reprehensible, but I wouldn't wish being scammed for a conman on my worst enemy.

It's also a potential rail to launder bribes and campaign funding, you name it.

Some might, though I've seen some people responding with "stay poor then" when people like me criticize the DJT ticker and $TRUMP coin.

I think a lot of them genuinely think that their godking is going to make them rich and reward their loyalty.
