My guess is that Trump was going after the "forth at the mouth for anything with his name on it" audience.
There are Rolex collectors who will throw $20k at a watch easy.
That's not who Trump is trying to attract.
He's going after people who buy shit with his name on it because they want to be shown as in the "in group".
It's simpler than that. It was a way for him to accept bribes from foreign enemies of the US.
Por que no los dos 🤷
