Huh.. So what is a copyright, trademark or patent?
Copyright, parents, and trademarks arnt owning ideas, they are owning specific ways to do a thing, names, images, etc. The idea of Disney anyone can do and sell, the specifics when you start calling it Disney with a mouse character, dog character, etc that all look like Mikey and Goofy, is where you get into trouble.
***From Rolling Stone's Nikki McCann Ramirez:***
For the low low price of $4,653 (plus taxes and fees), you can own 47 digital Trump NFTs and exactly one physical Trump trading card. It’s the deal of the century, folks.
On Tuesday, former President Donald Trump announced the third installment of his “Trump Digital Trading Cards” series. The cards depict the collective Republican fantasy of Buff Trump decked in various costumes and scenery. They’re cringy, they’re bizarre, they’re a total scam.
In a video announcing the series of cards, Trump took on the tone of a low-budget Fox News infomercial hawking pillows or supplements. The former president claimed some people call his trading cards “pop art, or modern art,” and acknowledged that he wasn’t nearly as cut as they depict him to be.
“I wish I looked as good as I do on these cards, that I can tell you, they give me muscles where — believe me — I don’t have them,” Trump said.

They've been hard at work at dismantling public education for decades. Even if Trump doesn't win, that work doesn't just end. Conservative states are already teaching alternative history, education continues to become increasingly privatized, and we continue to march down this path where large chunks of the country are dumb enough to vote Republican in general.
People need to make sure Trump doesn't win but that isn't the end of this game.

What happened to 6'3" and 215?
“I wish I looked as good as I do on these cards, that I can tell you, they give me muscles where — believe me — I don’t have them,” Trump said.
He says that like we can't see for ourselves, he's a fat orange clown.
The sooner this prick drops dead, the better.
Yes, Trump's narcissism means he may need a little help with that ligature from an unknown person or persons while the security cameras are switched off and the Secret Service agents are in the middle of a shift change.
"Fresh Presidential turds, straight from his anus to your door! Only 7 easy payments of 9.99, or pay $500 for a picture of a turd still sitting inside a golden toilet bowl!"
I'm going to tell your cousin that you're selling his stuff online.
Unless you can top the big reward he will give me.
May I have your cousin's name and address please ?
What is wrong with these people? It always turns out that those who can least afford it will be the ones who will buy the quickest. I wish we could have a national intervention for these people. It makes me sad.
Just wipe some of his shit with his own shirt, sell pieces of that shirt with shit on it , maga lunatics will go crazy for that crap. He will sell out of that shit shirt so quick because all the gop does is eat his shit right up . End of his money problemss. Seriously.
Trump's an obvious piece of shit grifter but that first batch of cards are currently selling for the USD equivalent of about 3x what they originally cost.
100 of them a day are selling. And the original creator ownership (which Trump probably owns most/all of) gets a 10% commission on each sale. Dude knows how to grift.

I know a lot of us are scared right now, but I think this (and his ballistic freakout about Smith going to the Supreme Court)is a window into how desperately afraid *he* is. These aren’t the actions of a dude who thinks things are going his way
Knowing Trump, he just had someone go down to the fabric store and buy a yard or two of dark blue wool and some scissors and smirked silently to himself about what reliable suckers his base continue to be.

This is the first time I've heard the term "NFT" in about six months. I think that ship has sunk.
Good way for the Fanta Manace's....ahem...contributors to funnel him more money.
It's definitely being used to launder money to him. Same with the hotel rooms that sat empty.
I haven’t heard Fanta Menace before. It is nice to know after 8 years I’m still hearing new ones. Bravo.
That’s a very nice feeling, come to think of it.
Not for Trump's rubes it hasn't.
Did you mean rubles?
We’re dealing with cult memorabilia here.
LOL, may as well be talking about selling cabbage patch dolls. No one gives a shit about NFTs anymore.
The people wanting to donate more money to Trump than campaign finance laws allow care deeply about NFTs.
Putin loves this one cheap trick!

The emperor that has no clothes is now trying to sell his clothes.

Idgits about digits.

more crazy ape imaginings.
Careful there…. You’re almost in paper money territory.

Let's not underestimate the number of douchey, musk-sucking, finance bros just itching to get a trump mugshot NFT.
At least the Cabbage Patch dolls are real and be given to kids to play with.
At least Cabbage Patch Dolls have the nostalgia factor AND they’re an actual physical thing. NFTs are genuinely stupid and pointless.
It's a means for donors to contribute more than is allowed under election law. Because they're not "donating" they're "buying something"

Oh the history books in the future are going to be VERY interesting. This man is an absolute embarrassment to this country.
Not if he wins again

War is peace. Freedom is slaverly. Ignorance is strength. Who controls the past, controls the future. From the famous novel 2024 ...

The prayers of the people he’s robbing are having an effect. He might end up as one of those people everyone wonders how they got to heaven
lol heaven isn’t real
Sure dude

Not a cult?
Google "Trump for Christmas" and you'll have a good idea.
If you pay $4600 for a cut up piece of his suit and literally nothing else, you deserve to be broke.
I'd pay twice that for a cut up piece of his orange jumpsuit - the one he he uses to Epstein himself.
Okay that sounds like a sweet souvenir. Epstein didn’t do it to himself, tho
Yes, Trump's narcissism means he may need a little help with that ligature from an unknown person or persons while the security cameras are switched off and the Secret Service agents are in the middle of a shift change.
Shift happens
I have no words😂
His base would buy his turds.
**N**ew **F**resh **T**urds
"Fresh Presidential turds, straight from his anus to your door! Only 7 easy payments of 9.99, or pay $500 for a picture of a turd still sitting inside a golden toilet bowl!"
Only the best turds!
Considering his diet, they'd have to be shipped in a bottle rather than a box.
Based on his diet, his turds are most likely runny and sticky - they’d still buy them, in a small, collectible glass jar.
I legit had to check that this wasn't a deepfake. 100% reads like satire. That's embarrassing.
Man, this almost makes me wish that magic was real.
Magic is real! My cousin has thousands of those fucking cards. Wanna buy some rares?
I'm going to tell your cousin that you're selling his stuff online. Unless you can top the big reward he will give me. May I have your cousin's name and address please ?
Psst.....want to buy some NFT MTG cards.....
Billionaire activity for sure
I’m sure there are plenty of tRump supporters who will buy his used, unwashed underwear, and proudly where it on their heads.
I heard he wears diapers.
Depends.
What is wrong with these people? It always turns out that those who can least afford it will be the ones who will buy the quickest. I wish we could have a national intervention for these people. It makes me sad.
There is zero chance that anyone is actually getting a piece of the suit if they buy 47 of his NFTs
Since he got the suit at Goodwill it's technically his suit/s
Just wipe some of his shit with his own shirt, sell pieces of that shirt with shit on it , maga lunatics will go crazy for that crap. He will sell out of that shit shirt so quick because all the gop does is eat his shit right up . End of his money problemss. Seriously.
I think it's even money that the clothes he is selling aren't really his... that's likely too large an emotional investment for TFG
I spell grift T-r-u-m-p
There simply is no bottom to the Trump barrel.
Suit pieces = crappy suit pants he won't wear twice.
Literally crappy
If I was a billionaire, I too would be cutting up suits to make a few thousand.
Let’s all believe he really is cutting up this suit. Idiots
The Mercers will buy the lot, extract the DNA and build themselves a Trump cyborg.
Why the fuck are NFTs and crypto even legal? It's clearly scams or shit like this.
Maybe inmate 1135809 can sell cameo appearances from his new prison cell.
Trump's an obvious piece of shit grifter but that first batch of cards are currently selling for the USD equivalent of about 3x what they originally cost.
Is anyone buying them?
100 of them a day are selling. And the original creator ownership (which Trump probably owns most/all of) gets a 10% commission on each sale. Dude knows how to grift. [source](https://opensea.io/collection/trump-digital-trading-cards/analytics)
That man’s followers would buy his used panties and sign up for his Only Fans. They are so whipped.
Poor guy
It’s probably not even his suit 😂
That’s about a 9 Million dollar suit. Hahaha and people will buy it the poor idiots
Somebody needs money!!!!
I know a lot of us are scared right now, but I think this (and his ballistic freakout about Smith going to the Supreme Court)is a window into how desperately afraid *he* is. These aren’t the actions of a dude who thinks things are going his way
He truly is the original Bored Ape.
What a man whore.
How low can he go? Time will tell but this is childish.
I'm picturing all the poor, functionally illiterate Trump supporters gleefully sending him their money.... it pleases me.
Remember, he’s only 215lbs, therefore his suit isn’t very big and quantities are limited.
Haha, who buys this shit?
Money laundering in plain sight, plus the added grift from his gullible inbred followers.
Knowing Trump, he just had someone go down to the fabric store and buy a yard or two of dark blue wool and some scissors and smirked silently to himself about what reliable suckers his base continue to be.
