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.
