Is that a professionally graded trump trading card depicting the assassination attempt?
“You kids like this kind of crap, right? Trading cards, with the poke-e-mans and the basketball players, oh the big beautiful basketball players, like…Lebron and Shaq! Oh we love Shaq! He’s in commercials now, you know, have you seen them? For foot powder spray, you kids like that sort of garbage, don’t you?”
Found a higher res version in this Axios article (which has more photos if you’re interested, and here’s the whole event on Getty Images):
I was mostly curious about what organization graded it. I can now see that it’s WCG, which Google tells me is notorious for grade inflation and hands out 10s like candy
edit: while trying to find out exactly when they started selling that card I found another variant with the deranged description of DONALD TRUMP Assassination Fight WOUND INFUSED COLOR GOLD CARD
I wonder if the grifters ever feel bored…it’s like shooting fish in a barrel
I like the fake blood on the fake gold. Very, very classy. Very, very Trump.
I just spent like the last 20 minutes ranting about this with a friend, and OF COURSE IT’S WGC LMAO.
They’re entirely worthless for grading, they’re basically a mom and pop that gives almost everything a 10. I was genuinely wondering if he had just gotten one of his kids or some cabinet member’s large adult nephew to put it in a random slab case off of eBay, but he actually found a way to do something funnier than faking it: JDPON Don grifted himself!
Bluesky libs are sometimes useful. I forgot all about this…
