Donald Trump's big announcement yesterday that he was gonna be selling a limited edition supply of N F t Trading cards for himself wasn't exactly met with the fanfare among his MAGA base that he had expected. In fact, according to reports and their own post on social media, most Trump fans were either annoyed or outright angry about Donald Trump's big announcement. So here is a selection of diehard MAGA freaks being off at Donald Trump for basically trying to con them once again. This is from MAGA fan Laverne Spicer, who wrote, as much as I love President Trump, this really was a letdown. Jeff Charles wrote this. This was the major announcement he was supposed to give. Why though? Then it gets worse. This is from, uh, the Hodge Twins, a conservative comedy duo who said, quote, man, when all Patriots are looking for is hope for the future of our country.
And Trump hypes everybody up with a big announcement, then drops a low quality N F T collection video as the announcement. It just pushes people away. And here's one from, uh, uh, capital Rio Baked Alaska, who, who pleaded guilty and is heading to jail very soon. He said, quote, wait, hold up. The major announcement we were all waiting for is literally Trump trading cards. Meanwhile, yay is preaching the Bible and defending J six victims. This is why Trump can't win in 24. I can't believe I'm going to jail for an N F T salesman, really? Because that's the least shocking part of this. What's funny about this, the reason this actually matters is because y'all are finally getting a taste of what we've been warning you about for about six years now, every one of us on the left warned you that Donald Trump was a conman who cared about nothing more than lining his own pockets.
Yet you still participated in the Capitol Riot for him. You went out there, put your own reputations on the line, defending him, and this is what you get. This is what happens. And you didn't have to listen to us. By the way, you could have listened to literally anybody that had been involved with Donald Trump over the years before he entered politics, and they would've told you the same thing because they were telling us the same thing. Donald Trump is a grifter. He is the world's greatest conman. He will do whatever he feels he has to do to get a couple more dollars out of you. He doesn't care about really being president. He doesn't care about making your
Life better. All he cares about is how much money can I make today? And it looks like several people kind of realize that, but not before. Of course, you have to pay the price, which in baked Alaska's case means you still gotta go to jail for the guy. But maybe, maybe now you've learned your lesson, probably not. But if you were gonna learn it, this would be a very good time to do so.
