The Trump Merch Grift Bus is pure carny bullshit. These folks are taking advantage of a popular sales trend and they put too many eggs in one basket, then dropped the basket. 3 years ago, they’d be shilling for bitcoin. 30 years ago, they’d be selling beanie babies. 200 years ago, they’d be selling tulips.
The conman is just the face you put on your bus full of cheap plastic crap sold at 100x markups. And you get to this point because its an ostensibly quick way to turn a few thousand bucks into a few hundred thousand.
Probably for them, it’s not unlike being a professional Star Trek fan. They get to travel around the country and meet people, make some money, and have a few interesting stories to tell. Owning the libs is a bonus.
How does one get to the point where literally their entire existence revolves a conman, grifter, liar, and now convicted felon?

They’re selling Trump shit, they’re grifting too.

As a Star Trek fan, I find this comparison offensive
Let me put it this way.
Name me a fandom besides MAGoos that wouldn’t find it offensive and I’ll change it.
That logical, right?
Bronies?
They have enough problems without me piling on
After 8+ years, I think they’ve established themselves well enough not to require such comparisons.
Silly me. The first time I saw it, I read it as ‘Brawn-Eees,’ not ‘Brough-Knees.’ Still can’t update it, although I know what it means.
Don’t forget rapist
It’s a cavalcade of logical fallacies fueld by any of a number of idiotic, nearly pathetically, core beliefs.
