    MAYBE if this happened a year ago, it could have been at least hypothetically justified.

    This soon after FTX shit the bed spectacularly, exposing the massive vulnerabilities and levels of fraud behind blockchain tech in general? Just completely fucking stupid, from a business perspective alone.

    So this one is real? It looks so fake as people have stated such a cheap, effin photoshop job.



    The best is the skinny body they put him on. If anyone remembers what Trump looks like in a Tuxedo, it's not good.



    Very ill fitting.

    No.

    One, they all have the skinny body. Trump also appears with Old Spice POWAAAAAAAAAAH-level muscles in some of them.

    Two, the best part is some of the images are stolen from clothing brands.



    Stolen from this site.

    Absolutely the most predictable shit. The intern only had a weekend, give them some credit for being creative. At least they slapped on a few minor changes so it wasn't immediately obvious.

    Well of course one is a muscular super hero.

    I will clear up my post by saying we have a pic of him in almost say tuxedo and it's laughable.

    Haha! Your pic you showed of a cowboy is funny. I'm just wondering if they were like; "Lets get that Yellowstone background, that's what all our white conservatives are watching these days".

    You joke, but there's no way one person made all of these. There's too broad of a span of art styles. I think this was fan art sent to Trump and he took them.

    Am I the only one that thinks half of Trump's face actually just looks like Putin's face with hair?

    The sad thing is, his cult will buy that crap. They wouldn't be able to recognize a grift if it slammed them in the face.

    Well, pretty much, yes.
    I feel the need to correct you here. No your not buying a picture for 99 bucks. Your buying a hyperlink that may, or may not, link to a picture.

    Remember, these are NFT's your buying. Your not buying the thing, your buying a link to where the thing might be. But no guarantee that the thing you didn't buy will be/stay at the end of the link you bought.
    It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

    The jokes is on us, trump nft's are sold oud.

    Could also be that trump and co just put it on sold out because of the mocking but as of now, you just missed the once in a life opportunity to buy Trump NFT;s for the bargaining price of 99 USD.

    So, big plans for Trump if he were to win in 2024. Namely, ending censorship. Government censorship. You know, the kind that isn't allowed to begin with. The thing that the First Amendment prevents anyway.

    https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/polit...02782e5a3ec312

    Trump Just Announced What He Plans to Do If He Wins 2024 Election

    Former President Donald Trump laid out a five-point plan aimed at tackling censorship should he win the 2024 presidential election.

    The Republican vowed to prevent "lawful speech" from being labeled misinformation or disinformation by the U.S. government.

    On Thursday afternoon, Trump posted a video to Truth Social detailing his proposals. In it, he railed against what he called the "left-wing censorship regime." He also cited a supposed shadowy collaborative effort to "suppress vital information on everything from elections to public health."

    "The censorship cartel must be dismantled and destroyed, and it must happen immediately," Trump said.

    Trump said he plans to ban via executive order the so-called collusion between the federal government and any person, business or group that seeks to stifle lawful speech.

    "I will then ban federal money from being used to label domestic speech as mis- or disinformation," he said, adding that he'd also fire any federal bureaucrat found to have participated in "domestic censorship."

    The remarks come after Twitter CEO Elon Musk launched an effort to expose information that he said proves the platform's previous leadership had shadow banned certain users.

    Trump further said that he'd direct the Department of Justice to launch a probe into those "involved in the new online censorship regime." He'd also demand that guilty parties be prosecuted for any crime identified.

    "I am urging House Republicans to immediately send preservation letters—and we have to do this right now—to the Biden administration, the Biden campaign and every Silicon Valley tech giant, ordering them not to destroy evidence of censorship," Trump said.

    Trump said that if he wins in 2024, he'd ask Congress to change the qualifications for immunity protection under Section 230. Online platforms would be eligible only if they "meet high standards of neutrality, transparency, fairness and nondiscrimination," he said.

    Section 230 is a decades-old provision of federal law that works to shield social media platforms from being sued over users' content.

    The way Trump sees it, the "toxic censorship industry" should be barred from labelling domestic speech disinformation and misinformation.

    President Joe Biden's administration has long taken aim at pandemic-related misinformation.

    Trump also promised to starve nonprofits and academic programs of funding if they support censorship.

    "If any U.S. university is discovered to have engaged in censorship activities, or election interference in the past, such as flagging social media content for removal of blacklisting, those universities should lose federal research dollars and federal student loan support for a period of five years, and maybe more," he said.

    Trump also spoke in support of a "digital Bill of Rights," including a "right to digital due process." Under this proposal, the government would have to obtain a court order before any official could remove virtual content, he said.

    Trump also floated the idea that platforms must notify users who've been "shadow banned" or had their account removed or otherwise restricted. Such users, he said, should be given an explanation of why the choice was made and should have the right to a timely appeal.

    U.S. adults under Trump's plan could also "opt out of content moderation and curation entirely."

    Newsweek reached out to a representative for Trump for additional comment.
    Man, I guess his plan is working already. Nobody from the government is labeling anything misinformation. Only private entities that don't take money from the government. I guess he is still butthurt about Twitter labeling most of his tweets as misinformation. Too bad Twitter/Facebook/etc aren't government entities.

    A lot of (former) MAGAs are PISSED at the Trump NFTs. I hope they stay home on Nov 9 2024 but the reality is they'll probably just vote DeSantis or whoever is the general election candidate. Though even if Twitter is blowing up with Trump hate from former supporters, there's still plenty of die-hards with their lips wrapped around Trump's sausage. I hope Trump runs 3rd party because that would all but guarantee a good ole Democrat sweep.

    Trump running third party would almost guarantee a Democratic win. Let's hope he and his sycophants are stupid enough to do it.

    And it worked - they sold out in one day.

    Oh by the way, @cubby did you see the DC's equiv of a grand jury found Giuliani their equiv of guilty?
    A bar discipline committee in Washington, D.C., has concluded that Rudy Giuliani violated at least one professional rule in his efforts to help former President Donald Trump challenge the results of the 2020 election — a preliminary finding that could result in the suspension or loss of his law license.

    The three-member disciplinary committee agreed that Giuliani’s handling of litigation in Pennsylvania crossed ethical lines. Their finding came after a week of testimony by Giuliani — who said Trump waived attorney-client privilege to permit him to testify — and some of his allies, including Trump advisers Bernie Kerik, Christina Bobb and Corey Lewandowski.

    “Mr. Giuliani has testified on several occasions that he believes there was a conspiracy,” said D.C. Bar counsel Phil Fox, who investigated and argued the case for Giuliani’s punishment. “There was a conspiracy, and he was the head of it.”

    “I think the harm that was done is unprecedented,” Fox said. “The only sanction that’s appropriate for this kind of misconduct is disbarment.”

    Fox and Giuliani will now submit written submissions that the committee will consider before issuing a final finding.

    It's fantastic news. Sounds like they are going for complete disbarment, which would be very appropriate for someone who lied, under oath, several times in courtroom hearings.

    Well every dollar that goes into NFTs can't be spend on guns and booze, so there's that.
