Trump's new grift: Charging GOP candidates to use his name
Poor Donald Trump. It seems he isn’t selling enough $399 high-tops or $60 Bibles, and his Truth Social stock is in the toilet, so it’s time for a new, new, new, new grift: charging his fellow Republicans for uttering his name. The Trump campaign...

BREAKING: Donald Trump hits rock bottom with his financial problems and demands that ALL Republican candidates give at least 5% of their fundraising hauls to him if they use his name, image, or likeness.
Trump is gutting his entire party and it gets even better...
In a new letter sent to Republican digital venders, Trump's campaign ordered all down-ballot candidates who exploit his name for fundraising to share the proceeds with him.
Given his mounting legal bills — and the outstanding $464 million he owes to the state of New York — Trump's desperate request is hardly surprising.
It is, however, a complete disaster for all of the Republican candidates caught in his greedy net. By siphoning money away from them, Trump is making it much easier for Democrats to sweep the election down ballot. As usual, he's totally focused on himself at the expense of his allies.
"Beginning tomorrow, we ask that all candidates and committees who choose to use President Trump’s name, image, and likeness split a minimum of 5% of all fundraising solicitations to Trump National Committee JFC," reads the letter. "This includes but is not limited to sending to the house file, prospecting vendors, and advertising."
"Any split that is higher than 5% will be seen favorably by the RNC and President Trump’s campaign and is routinely reported to the highest levels of leadership within both organizations," it goes on.
Meanwhile, Biden is absolutely crushing Trump in fundraising. The Democratic president has reportedly raised over $190 million in fundraising — more than double Trump.
It goes without saying, but Joe Biden is NOT asking Democratic candidates to funnel their campaign money to him. He doesn't need it.

Everytime I see them hat in hand begging for money I think about this seinfeld skit
Ain't gonna make a dime without a squeegee
Republicans deserve all of this smoke because they are stupid
BREAKING: Beloved actor John Leguizamo lays down some cold hard truths to the Latino voters who support Donald Trump with an epic Spanish-profanity laden rant that's spreading like wildfire through MAGA world.
This is incredible...
Smashing a piñata while swearing during an appearance on The Daily Show, Leguizamo took aim at a new poll that showed Trump leading Biden among Latino voters. 46% said they'd vote for Trump, 40% said Biden.
"You may be thinking, how is this possible? ‘Build the wall’ Donald Trump? ‘Mass deportations’ Donald Trump? ‘Guy who thinks Daddy Yankee is a baseball player’ Donald Trump?" asked Leguizamo.
"But the truth is, in 2024, Latino voters have something else on their minds," he added, as the segment cut to a report about Latino voters worried about inflation.
The aforementioned poll also revealed that 93% of Hispanic respondents had negative things to say about current food/consumer good prices.
Ironically, electing Donald Trump will make inflation skyrocket due to his harebrained scheme to devalue the U.S. dollar to cut trade deficits.
"Well, here’s what you can count on, though. No matter what Trump says about inflation, he doesn’t like us and he doesn’t want us here," said Leguizamo.
The actor took special aim at Trump's stunningly racist remarks that we need more immigrants from "nice countries, you know like Denmark, Switzerland."
"Donald, stop beating around the bush. We want nice people, Swiss people, ski instructors, Wes Anderson fans. Just say ‘white people,’" said Leguizamo.
