On Thursday President Trump announced his superhero trading cards. Amazingly, and in contradiction to those who contributed to the bad press, the cards sold out within 24 hours and the prices soared.
This from survivethenews.com.
President Trump on Thursday introduced his “official Donald Trump Digital Trading Card” collection with a picture of himself in superhero costume, cape and “Trump Champion” belt. Many naysayers believe he likewise walked into a comic-book universe of internet mockery.
The Liberal world did not receive the new cards with kindness and positivity.
Imagine, however, how well Tramp Kamala trading cards or Brain Dead Joe-Joe trading cards would be hyped by the mass propaganda media.
Or perhaps imagine a release of Trump trading cards seven years ago before he announced his intention to run for U.S. President when he was seen as being extremely generous and was called magnanimous by many on the Left.
Now imagine what President Trump will do with the profits from the sale of these collector cards. We can be certain everything will be donated to a worthy cause.
Former President Trump has announced a new collection of digital trading cards, available for $99 each.
Trump said the cards are "very much like a baseball card, but hopefully much more exciting."

But President Trump had the last laugh.
CoinDesk reported:
U.S. President Donald Trump’s non-fungible token (NFT) digital trading card collection sold out early Friday, the day after its initial release.
According to data from OpenSea, at time of writing, the collection’s trading volume is 900 ETH, or about $1.08 million.
Its floor price is about 0.19 ETH, or about $230 – more than double the original price of $99.
Some tokens are selling for much higher prices. The one-of-ones, the rarest of the NFTs, which comprise 2.4% of the 45,000 unit collection (roughly 1,000), are selling for as much as 6 ETH at the time of writing. One of these rare trading cards, of the 45th president standing in front of the Statue of Liberty holding a torch, is currently listed at 20 ETH, or about $24,000.
According to data from Dune Analytics, nearly 13,000 users minted 3.5 tokens upon the release of the collection.
Additionally, 115 customers purchased 45 NFTs, which is the minimum number of tokens that guarantees a ticket to a dinner with Trump; 17 people purchased 100 NFTs, which, according to the Trump Trading Card site, was the maximum quantity allowed to mint. However, additional metrics from Dune show that other wallets held far more.
Currently, 1,000 NFTs, including many one-of-ones, are held in one Gnosis Safe multisignature wallet.
[This] appears to be the wallet receiving royalty payments from the secondary sales of the NFTs.
