Because Marketing!
You’re gonna love this, mainly because it explains so much.
Ever wondering why Donald Trump isn’t doing any better in the polls? Because he spent all his damn money on hats, that’s why.
According to the Federal Election Commission filings, Donald Trump’s presidential campaign has spent $1.8 million on polling from June 2015 through September of this year (the most recent month for which data are available). The report also lists $3.2 million spent on hats.
Ever the huckster, Donald saw more value in hats than in polling or ads or hiring a damn speechwriter for his wife.
So the biggest winner in this presidential election is the place in China where they make those hats. Anybody want to place a bet that someone in the Trump family is making money off of them? Of damn course they are.
So you can tell a sucker by the hat on his low IQ head.

2Oh Rasty that’s been true since the first gimme cap hit the shelves.
Trump clothing label makes their stuff (ties and suits) in China so I’m sure they were hired to make the hats; so yes Trump did make money off the campaign donations. Probably made money twice: once from the idiot donors and once off the people stupid enough to buy them.
3He claimed the hats are made in the US but I’ve never seen one to verify that.
4Since he was saving so much money on TV time because all of the networks were giving him such widespread coverage, he had to do something … so it ended up being his stupid hats.
5Donnie looks really st00pid in a ball cap. Unfortunately for him, the level of st00pid ratchets up magnitudes, when he removes it to reveal his ‘hair.’
6If I recall correctly. Apparel made in the sweat shop of the Marshall Islands can be labeled “Made in the USA”.
7With no minimum wage or no safety standards, using temporary immigrant labor the ideal Trump standard.
Hillary has directions on her website for constructing your own Trump Tin Foil hat. Proudly display your own conspiracy theory while showing Trump supporters that you too know how to keep various forms of radiation from reaching your brain:

8I think I’ve read that one of his sons runs the company which has the hat concession.
Figures.
9Oh, the radiation stops at Alex Jones, Trump’s trumpet.
10I wonder how much they kicked back to him?
11I love the tinfoil hat. There’s a small cadre of true believers in my building who would love this hat. I should print one out for them. They even believe the chem trails and fluoride stuff.
12Now this just proves what a lousy businessman Trump really is! No undergrad or grad school business course would every promote the bass awkward way he handles money. And hell he went to the Wharton School at U-Penn. Did he even show up for class on the first day?
135 bucks gets you a 20 if he hasn’t found a way to profit off the hats. Ditto, the polling, office rentals, transportation, et. al.
14I wish Trump would wear a nice shiny hate like this on to a golf course – during a thunderstorm.
15“Nice shiny hatE ” – Freudian slip much?
16“… nice shiny hate…” Works for me, Lunargent.
17Trump Sr. showed up at Fordham for his first two years of college. After that he was able to transfer to Penn because someone on the admissions committee was buds with his older brother. He likes to imply that he has a prestigious MBA from Penn’s prestigious Wharton School, but he does not. A BA in economics, without distinction…
Two of Trump’s kids flunked out of Georgetown before transferring to Penn. How they got INTO Penn is probably an icky story. However, my best friend’s husband is a Georgetown academic board member, and confirmed the flunk-out story to me.
