Trump Supporters Bash Him For Launching New Grift Instead Of Campaigning

Donald Trump announced on Truth Social that he is going to be selling a limited edition collector’s coin featuring himself on it for $100, and his supporters on Truth Social went nuts – but not in the way that Trump wanted. His own fans were furious that he was launching a new grift with less than a month and a half to go before the election, and they want him to be out campaigning and talking about the issues. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains what happened.

On Friday evening, after, of course his rant about how much women are stupid for not voting for him, um, Donald Trump decided, okay, it's time to get away from the campaign talk. Now it's time to sell people useless garbage again. That's right. On Friday, there were 45 days left until the election and Donald Trump was not campaigning. He was launching a new grift. And that grift, of course, is a commemorative coin. Coin, excuse me, featuring Donald Trump's image that he is selling for $100 a piece. Now, we have seen Donald Trump's sell those NFT, those uh, uh, trading cards, the digital trading cards multiple times throughout his campaign. He actually did it very recently, made a ton of money, uh, recently launched a crypto service. Um, he has sold pieces of the suit that he wore to get his mugshot. He's sold the mugshot. Um, he's selling all sorts of things, but what he's not selling is himself to American voters.

And with the announcement of his new commemorative coin on truth social, his own followers got because each time Donald Trump does one of these things where he starts selling a part of himself to people, more and more of his own supporters are waking up to the fact that, wait a minute, this isn't normal. This isn't what candidates do. This is you trying to con me out of more money. So here's a collection of responses from his own supporters on truth social. Here's what some of them had to say. Can you please not try to sell these coins while running for president? It doesn't look good for you. Focus on real issues. Well, I mean, let's be honest here. Donald Trump can't focus on the issues. I don't know who you folks are, whether you're his staffers, just his fans, his allies, members of Congress, all y'all have been saying the same thing for over two months now.

Like, focus on the issues. You've heard him talk about the issues, and that's even worse than his grifting. It's even worse than his insults. He is the dumbest person on the planet when it comes to actually having to talk about issues. So y'all begging him to do that is almost begging him to lose the campaign. Just, just a word of advice, like he is so much worse on the issues than he is on anything else. Another user wrote Matthew 6 24 NLT, and then he quotes it. No one can serve two masters for you will hate one and love the other. You will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and be enslaved to money. So one of his own supporters blasted him with a Bible quote, basically accusing him of being in love with money, and I love it. Another one

Said, quote, president Trump is a great innovator and businessman. No other presidential candidates have offered so many great items. I will buy a few coins. However, I have a lot of our money tied up in DJ t. True social stock. I need that price to get above $55, admittedly, when I was marking up my notes here, I skipped that part. I didn't see it. So that actually came as a shock to me because I didn't realize that was the second half of it. He's like, I'll buy a few, but I gotta be honest with you, man, um, you've lost a lot of my money already. For those who have not been following along. By the way, with true social stock on Friday, it bottomed out at $13 and 55 cents a share. Like I was making fun of it. When it hit $17 a share, then a week later it hit $15 a share.
