“My daughters ordered a Trump watch and after 5 months of waiting have not received anything. It’s a shame this company is not holding to President Trump’s high standards. This was a present for my 80th birthday!” wrote one MAGA supporter on July 14.
Nope, no intelligence was found here.
This is the closest that recipient will get to a direct interaction with Trump. The only thing that could make it a more accurate analog would be their daughters getting sexually assaulted/harassed, and then called a liar who isn't attractive enough to get sexually assaulted.
Big "If the fuhrer only knew!" energy there.
I'd say that exactly meets the standard
It's crazy. Somehow he has gotten them to protect his ego over their own.
It's never him doing it, it's always someone else going against his wishes.
ROFLOL "But those things they kept saying about bad business practices applied to other people and not me".
Temu quality, Rolex prices. Sounds like a Trump enterprise to me.
Temu quality if they ever even ship, which doesn't seem to be the case
THEY STILL DON'T BLAME TRUMP. It's fucking incredible. They're literally incapable of thinking he could do something wrong.
Who are they blaming? The cheap watch maker, that everyone knows makes cheap watches and shouldn't be surprised at all that the watches that they made are cheap?
Gasp what horrible company would try to sabotage the president like that?
(/s ... in case it wasn't obvious)
Do not buy any of these garbage products. Avoid like the plague!!
We all know most of these fools did not in fact avoid the plague.
"Avoid like the plague!!"
MAGA: Okay, got it, I'm gonna intentionally buy them just to try to piss people off with no regard for the safety of myself or others.
They've been treating these things like they treat the plague from the start, actually.
Fool me 10 times, shame on you. Fool me 11 times, big shame on you. This 12th deal better be damn good to make up for all that!
The sunk cost presidency.

These people are un-teachable. This kind of immunity to learning from experience should be considered a mental illness.
"I wish President Trump could be notified how bad this is..."
Even unteachable is somehow too charitable. In the middle of eating the shit he is spoon feeding them, they believe 100% that he has nothing to do with it and doesn't even know about it. These people are absolutely braindead.
Thank you Trump for my spoonful of shit!
God damn Joe Biden and those fucking demoncrats put shit in my mouth!
Yeah idk — we need a new word that eclipses 'ret*rd' for stupidity. It's time.
I listened to an interview with a Trump-voting farmer who was suffering because of tariffs. She knew tariffs were the problem. She stated repeatedly that tariffs were the problem. She could not bring herself to the logical endpoint in that ultimately this was Trump's fault, instead blaming "the government" for it. They are not ever going to be productive members of society unless they can be deprogrammed from the cult.
Trump: "I can't believe they fell for it. What marooons."
He'll probably sell them toasters that burn down their houses next.
No way. Who'd believe it? There's surely no precedent for this.
This whole situation is setting a really bad president for the future.
TheBestWatchesonEarth LLC lol That's such a scam name I can't understand how anyone wouldn't think it's a scam. It might as well be called TotallyLegitBusinessThatsNotAScam.
Whoda thunk that a likely shell company called TheBestWatchesonEarth LLC wouldn't be trustworthy and competent??
Everybody that knows anything about watches knows these come from websites where you can design them in a browser, pick the components and have them shipped from China. Most of them had $50 Seiko NH35/36 movements. Good movements, but you can get them in a much better $200 watch.
Well as long as it can tell my political affiliation does it really need to tell time?
For reference, $5k is about the starting price for a Rolex
And yet they still won't recognise that he's a con artist. FFS.
Oh no!!! A known con man scammed idiots out of their money? Who could have guessed?
Some MAGA supporters who paid for Donald Trump watches are seriously ticked off.
Great start already lol
They'll fall for it again with the Trump phone
They would vote for him again without question. They would just shrug their shoulders at the polls and write it off as someone else’s fault, convinced trump is getting to the bottom of it for them.
You've got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West. You know… morons.
I just saw the commercial last week. As an artist you can tell a lot about a person by what they make. Not one product Trump has made has been quality. Gold facades overpriced bibles, poison steaks, chinese hats supposedly made in america, phones and phone plans running on another cell carrier. Nothing. Hes useless.
I wish Pres Trump could be notified to what this company has done to customers.
Why does she think he can't be notified?
What makes her think he doesn't already know?
So many layers of cope.
These fools are never going to realize they are the fool.
Lemme be Frank
Is this news article quoting a Lemmy user‽ Folks, we've made it!
I just sent the link for the watches to my MAGA cousin. Let's see if he takes the bait!
It finally dawned on me I was scammed.
oh, finally.
Isn't it a Trump watch? It'll be right twice a day... wrong the other 1438 times.
