He's just so sleazy and disgusting. When he was elected, I knew he was bad and already despised

him, but I had no idea how evil he is. Now, I wouldn't put anything past him.

Even more troubling is how many Kool Aiders are following him.

Yes, he was repulsive even when he was a Dem.

Expand full comment

Don't you mean Fool Aiders?

Expand full comment

No. I mean Kool Aiders.

If you're not familiar with it, there was a cult that followed Jim Jones called Jonestown. He poisoned Kool Aid (or something like it) and directed all the members of the cult to drink it. They did and they all died. This was a long time ago.

Yes. I saw the film. I understand what you were saying. I was being sarcastic implying that Trump's followers are fools.

Correction: some did survive.

Yes. A few managed to escape.

The watches are also non-refundable. I found a picture on Google maps of the so called office. One is an H&R Block office and the other is a company with the exact address called https://nextheight.net/mnft-llc. An educational company. This is really suspicious and I think his Court Monitor needs to be involved with this. Who pays up to $100,000 for a watch that is non-refundable? They are not made yet, no shipping date. I also found similar watches for under $100 on Temu. I think Trump is getting them from China and its all a scam. He is peddling political influence and is selling favors for when he thinks he will be President. That is not going to happen and he knows it. How many of our enemies will buy 20 watches from him?? Suite 1309 is a vacant suite with a for rent sign on it. https://www.google.com/maps/@44.7843397,-106.9416804,3a,15y,107.22h,91.79t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sPihAeyUlXjzmVXZ3caourg!2e0!7i16384!8i8192?coh=205409&entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI0MDkyNS4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D

The for rent sign & for sale signs are gone. Scaffolding on both sides of the building. No business signs except for a daycare flag on one side. There are piles of construction materials, looks like at least the outside is being renovated. H & R Block is actually next to it, another building. This building sits in a little shopping center on one side & street access on the other.

Maybe a dry cleaner?

Hi, Ellen, thanks for your detective work and tracking down a photo of that address. This Google Maps photo with the For Rent sign says "August 2019". Who knows at this point whether it is occupied. P.S. I've posted below that this address is likely one of many many businesses, as there's a company of attorneys there offering corporate/LLC business registrations for Wyoming (beneficial for taxes and business reasons, for out of state and WY-based businesses alike) registered agent services, and virtual office/mail services. https://wyomingllcattorney.com/Wyoming-Virtual-Office

Perhaps someone who lives in that area can do a closer check, take pictures,or inquire clandestinely and report

We went & looked. Completely being renovated it appears. Not sure how to post the pics. No business appears to be active there.

Maybe a gentleman's club.

An underground one which supplies illicit activities.

my guess is that it is now a mailbox place. this is typical in order to give an entity the appearance of a brick-and-mortar location. usps requires the use of 'po box,' places like 'mail-r-us' (tm) let you use 'suite' instead with their physical address.

this used to work, i don't know how it couldn't be more obvious these days.

You probably could buy them at the flea market for less than five dollars without tax

Perfect for a video rental store.

The Trump family are involved with a dodgy 'businessman' called JT Foxx. He reckons he will be the next billionaire. Trump wears his ties. I would not be surprised were the watches coming from him.

Expand full comment

But does it do like the "Tmex" that Dave Garroway promoted which after being spun around on an outboard motorboat engine " takes a lickin" and keeps on tickin' " and probably sold for about $20.00? Hmm...

Expand full comment

I doubt that many Substack readers under a certain age would know who Dave Garroway was. As the original host of NBC’s “Today” show I remember him, his sidekick, J. Fred Muggs, and those famous Timex watch commercials. What was their slogan: “You can given them a licking but they keep on ticking.”

I’d venture to say that a Trump watch wouldn’t last if you dropped it.

Expand full comment

I'm happy that there is at least one youngster, like myself who remembers Dave Garroway. ;)

Expand full comment

The name sounds familiar to me & associated with hawking some product like Timex watches.

Expand full comment

They were made in my home town and were known to be lower range.

Expand full comment

I’m another one who remembers Dave Garroway, I used to own a Timex watch, too.

Expand full comment

They were great watches too and were blessed with no mugshot of "45". ;)

Expand full comment

Didn't they do a bunch of stunts and then show the watch at the end? He would put it up to his ear and then they would show the second hand moving. Seems like they did a steamroller once.

Expand full comment

It wouldn't last if you wore it.

Expand full comment

You're never going to wear it because you will never receive it!

Expand full comment

That too. As far as I know they no longer exist.

Expand full comment

Exactly.

Expand full comment

They're likely Russian in which case they're not waterproof. I had a Russian watch years ago. It fell in water and that was the end of it.

Expand full comment

Or wore it

I remember those commercials too! Thanks for the laugh!😆

My pleasure! Thanks for your kind comment

Trump’s watch can’t be used near water

By golly, you are correct. Old age is creeping up on me. Thanks for setting me straight. :)

Wow! And people fall for this crap!! Thanks for the reporting of the nonsense that is trump and his corrupt followers. I’m crossing my fingers for another investigation and lawsuit against the Orange Turd!!

This looks like a way to launder foreign campaign donations. I doubt there are any actual watches for sale.

Oh brother,do I smell a Rat?!! Terrific article today,Brett and will be Restacking ASAP Thank You 💯

Unfortunately, there are probably more than a few people who have $100,000 to spend and who really think they are buying a watch. I expect their experience to be: 1. pay trump. 2. wait for watch. 3. keep waiting.

Expand full comment

Yup! And waiting…And waiting….And waiting………….

Just like those construction companies. Their workers didn’t get all their money for his casinos and hotels. He’s a thug and a thief.they will never see a watch, it will be lost in the mail.

Expand full comment

A tax fiddle. His associates will buy them under their companies' names as corporate incentives then deduct the $100,000 from their tax returns.

You bet ya! I know it won’t be me or you!

I think this is just more Trump ad crap for the cult. Anyone with a 100 G to spare would buy a Rolex and pocket the diff. But influence peddling is another story.

Typical. More money laundering from his casino days. Wasn't that big a secret many moons ago

What a thought

DJT stock needs to be monitored to. It went down because he was expected to dump. Now entities can funnel money to him that way with a better ROI. Expect that if it gets back over $20, he will dump quickly.

That would be the only rational, informed suspicion based on everything we know about him.

This address was site of auction house busted for selling counterfeit goods 3-11-2023 see Sheridan Press article.

Expand full comment

The Wyoming address is likely where the LLC was registered as a business entity and an attorney was the registered agent for them, and possibly for virtual office/mail services. https://wyomingllcattorney.com/Wyoming-Virtual-Office It's unlikely the auction house ever did any onsite business there.

Yep. There are no watches. This is a setup for laundering illegal foreign donations.

Sounds like right on brand for Trump.

Very well written, thank you.

He really is committing crimes right out in the open. The International component has made it easy for him to receive direct income from any number of wealthy villains.

Great work. No other news company is lifting a finger to check this out.

Money laundering was the first thing I thought of. He's experienced with that and has the connections.

Expand full comment

it,is upto us the voters to demand changes in the laws and ban conduits like this to launder money

Expand full comment

I noticed the there is a law firm at that address called Wyoming LLC Attorney. Looking at their website, I suspect that is the connection. Not sure what their Suite number is, but how they describe what they do fits exactly what that kind of firm would be looking for.
