Does Trump sell a lot of MAGA stuff at his rallies? I am wondering if that is his primary

reason for doing them? He sells those hats for $40 and they probably cost like $2 to make. If he can sell 5,000 of them at each rally then he is pulling in $200,000 just for the hats.

Thoughts?

Hell, that is WalMart's primary business model.

Swag sales are supposed to be used for campaign expenses, but we all know how Trump and rules get along.
