"“I’m very disappointed. I wanted it to be a special thing for her, and we had expected that it would have the integrity of the president of the United States,” Tim, who lives in Providence, Rhode Island, told NBC 6." I'm not sure why he's so disappointed, as this is at the level of integrity one apparently can readily expect from #47.

Wow the guy who ran a fraudulent university, bankrupted casinos, defrauded a cancer charity, rapes children, and sells signed bibles ripped me off!!!!

Good, you deserve it. Fucking moron.

Don’t forget, he’s also the guy that buried his ~~second~~ ex-wife on his own golf course just so he could continue to cheat on her.

[-] DagwoodIII@piefed.social 27 points 2 months ago

Just for accuracy.

Ivana was his first wife. Marla Maples was his second wife.

[-] homes@piefed.world 11 points 2 months ago

Damn, I can’t believe I got that mixed up. Thanks!

[-] DagwoodIII@piefed.social 14 points 2 months ago

The analogy I've been using is that trying to keep up with all the Trump scandals is like watching Avengers Endgame while reading Lord of the Rings and Listening to Game of Thrones at the same time.

Enjoy your day!

we had expected that it would have the integrity of the president of the United States

I don't understand. that's exactly what they got

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

If we didn’t have ethics or morals we could make a shit-ton of money.

Leopards ate my sense of irony

Imagine buying a piece of Biden merch -that says "BIDEN" in big letters on it- for someone that you supposedly love. What the fuck level of cult shit is this? These people are insane.

Now that's some merch worth wearing

[-] Fedizen@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

They found where the "T" went

[-] timbuck2themoon@sh.itjust.works 13 points 2 months ago

Certainly. There's a picture somewhere with a dumbass marine and his bride wearing a trump dress.

Trashy doesn't begin to describe.

BIDE

Bide what? My time? What am I biding? TELL ME!!

[-] NottaLottaOcelot@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 months ago

Actually that’s not bad for a watch…

[-] VitoRobles@lemmy.today 7 points 2 months ago

When I was in Hawaii, these maga tourists were high fiving each other because the Trump Ukulele dolls were selling better than the Biden Ukulele dolls.

And I wish I said, "Yeah because only morons buy that shit".

The watch blunder comes as the Trump Organization faces criticism over its long-delayed gold Trump Mobile phone, which is priced at $500.

Patrick Holland, managing editor of tech site CNET, who received the phone and spoke to CNN, said it was not made in America as promised, “looks nothing like the original image,” and also gets the number of stripes on the American flag wrong.

*snif*. That’s beautiful.

[-] thisbenzingring@lemmy.today 49 points 2 months ago

a fool and their money are soon parted

[-] SeeMarkFly@lemmy.ml 42 points 2 months ago

Slight change.

A fool and Trump's money are soon parted.

[-] switcheroo@lemmy.world 44 points 2 months ago

A piece of shit sold by a piece of shit to gullible pieces of shit. Ha ha, let's point and laugh.

[-] bagsy@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago

Damn my sense of morals and ethics. I could be making bank selling cheap Ali Express watches to magats right now.

[-] BranBucket@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

Back when the anti-5G hysteria was at it's peak, I wanted to sell cheap latex paint mixed with iron filings as a "high tech" coating that would prevent the 5G radiation from entering your home through the windows at the low, low price of $119 a gallon. (It also conveniently marked which houses the folks selling knives, magazines, and vacuums should visit.)

Sucks having a conscience sometimes.

[-] Snapz@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

Keep it from entering your home? Or from entering your head... Uncle freedom's anti-5G head paint

I bet this would be one hell of a collectible. Limited run of bullshit paraphernalia with an obvious print error about an extremely controversial, transparently corrupt and serial lying felon with an enormous cult following.

Just think in 20-50+ years. People still go nuts about their nazi shit. The price of the watch is high enough that there won't be too many of these in circulation. Unless many of them have this print error, it's something anyway.

[-] LordMayor@piefed.social 12 points 2 months ago

Some day, hopefully, a grandkid finds a trunk in his grandparents attic full of MAGA shit and has a crisis realizing that his grandparents are really shitty people.

[-] bagsy@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

all this trump shit will be worth about the same amount as beanie babies. Probably less since grandma and grandpa will need to keep it hidden away in the attic with the other nazi paraphernalia.

[-] Prove_your_argument@piefed.social 5 points 2 months ago

Just a matter of time and condition man. People will pay money for pristine old things, especially if they are related to major events. Infamy too, not just good things.

I could see this on antique road show and the fact that it has a news article associated with it and it kinda portrays him in a negative light would help establish provenance and make it way more memorable than most bullshit. There's even parallels to the defect of the item and the defect of the administration. Plus the potential wildcard of who knows what will happen in the next few years...

"i uspected it to have the same integrity like the president?"

Congratulations buddy... I actually have some AMAZING news for you.

[-] magnetosphere@fedia.io 19 points 2 months ago

This whole thing is grotesquely fascinating, but my biggest question is this: did the husband even glance at the watch before giving it to his wife, or did he just hand her the package it was mailed in?

I know that if I gave someone a $650 gift, I’d look it over carefully to make sure it was in good condition, but that’s just me.

[-] Snapz@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

You're asking for reason, forethought and enough self confidence to not want to be the focus of a ridiculous scam... from someone that just enthusiastically spent $700 USD on a "limited edition" made in China, imitation brass trump watch?

[-] Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 months ago

Or he gave it to her still in the box, since unboxing is part of the experience of getting something new.

Honestly, if I bought something as a present for someone else, that's exactly what I'd do, let them open the box.

Probably handed it over still in the box for her to open.

Why? If you can't trust the president anymore, where does that get us?

“I think that someone needs to be aware of it in their licensing department that someone’s dropped the ball big time,” Tim Petit said.

These people are so pathetically stupid. This is working just as intended.

[-] ExtremeDullard@piefed.social 13 points 2 months ago

I have a hard time sympathizing because, ya know, she bought a Trump watch. As a present. For her husband.

But I sympathize inasmuch as this lovely couple is mentally unfit rather than convinced MAGA cult members.

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

He bought it. For his wife. And it made her cry.

[-] db2@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

This is what you wanted and what you voted for, "lady". Wear your stupidity proudly like you were before you noticed a misspelling within your second grade reading level.

[-] Zier@fedia.io 11 points 2 months ago

"Show the world what an ass you are by wearing our plastic RUMP watch."

[-] the_riviera_kid@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

Its exactly the quality one should expect.

[-] meejle@piefed.world 8 points 2 months ago

Probably still the longest thing they've ever read

[-] ceenote@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

I get the feeling Jon Oliver is going to be buying that watch from her within a few weeks.

[-] mrmisses@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

Whenever I see a couple like the one in this video I wonder what they looked like when they were younger to make them actually attracted to one another.

[-] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 7 points 2 months ago

Just being second cousins of similar age might have been the only criteria.

Rules:

  1. The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
  2. Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
  3. If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
  4. Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. (If you're only using an excerpt from an article that's otherwise not about LAMF, you can use the quote in the title.) Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
  5. For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
  6. Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
