Why Trump's Unconventional Business Ventures are Making Headlines

President Donald Trump's business ventures have always been unconventional, to say the least. From Trump Vodka to Trump Mortgage, his attempts to diversify have often ended in failure. But his latest move - selling pieces of a suit he wore during his arrest - has taken things to a whole new level. In a bizarre attempt to cash in on his fame, Trump is now selling NFTs, or non-fungible tokens, dubbed "Trump Cards. " These digital collectibles come with a claim: buy 47 of them, and you'll receive a physical card featuring an authentic piece of the suit. Democratic Rep. Jared Moskowitz recently poked fun at Trump's business ventures, predicting that the former president might even auction off the space on his late ex-wife Ivana's tombstone. "Listen, I expect him to start selling Ivana Trump's tombstone," Moskowitz quipped. "You'll be able to write a little signature on her tombstone for $10,000. " Trump's NFT sales, which started with a batch of 45,000 cards sold in December 2022 for a staggering $4. 4M, have raised both humorous jabs and critical scrutiny. Trump's entry into fabric sales, especially bits of his infamous suit, is a novel approach. The suit, worn during his arrest in August 2023 due to his links with attempts to overturn the election, is touted on the Collect Trump Cards website as "the most historically significant artifact in United States history. " Anyone can buy a piece of this suit, declared 'priceless' for $4,699. 53. Trump's journey into NFTs and suit fragments adds a distinctive chapter to his business legacy, generating both humorous jabs and critical scrutiny.
