From the article about the latest grift:
After lunch, it became clear why "finances" are part of the tour's motto. People who'd paid between $40 for a basic ticket and $10,000 for a VIP package that included photo ops, breakfast with Dinesh D'Souza, and lunch with Trump Jr. spent well over an hour listening to a speech about how to make money in the stock market.
They were then offered a $97 class (valued at more than $1,000, the speaker claimed) to learn how to get rich. Hundreds swarmed tables, squinting in dim lighting to write their biographical information and credit card numbers on the application.
This wasn't the only offer to get rich that day.

It's amazing, it really is... This is not a new grift, it's freakin ancient... It's the 'TFG university' scam all over again and it barely even has new paint on it. I would think most people know it but... They line up by the hundreds to give away their money.
I feel sad for them.
Somewhere in here is our only lever to fight against these corrupt hustlers. Once Republicans realize its a giant scam and a hustle think theyll be lining up to rebuke them and pretend they werent hustled themselves.
What a sight to witness.
Because The same rubes keep lining up to get fleeced.

(32,628 posts)I don't think he did, because he refuses to admit that Biden won.
Therefore he has no campaign, and he can't collect donations yet. So what's a grifter to do?
Maybe send his son out on a FAKE campaign, (but don't call it that) and collect all the dough he can (but don't call them campaign donations.)
Merchandise. You could see it at his last
"Rally".
