NFTs have been trashed by everyone since their inception. Though that doesn’t stop rich people with sometimes questionable integrity from releasing them so they can get money. So, it’s fitting that former President Donald Trump would jump in on the fad albeit a bit late. Announced on his platform TruthSocial, Trump said that you can purchase limited edition trading cards over on Collect Trump Cards. Reminiscent of baseball cards, these cards show off his life and career, which include him dressed up as a cowboy, an astronaut, a NASCAR racer, and a superhero where he’s firing lasers from his eyes. The absurd collection contains 45 cards and purchasing them only costs $99. Alternatively, you can right-click on them and download the images for free.
If you do plan on purchasing these trading cards, you won’t get all 45 cards. According to the FAQ on the website, the cards your receive are randomly generated and each card has its own rarity with no more than 20 copies being produced of any card. If you get a series of cards you don’t like, you’re out of luck as all purchases are final.
By purchasing the cards, you’ll also get a ticket to attend his Gala Dinner in South Florida and 45 entries in the sweepstake. The sweepstake says the winner will receive 1000s of prizes and to meet the former President in Zoom call, though there is one important thing to note, and that is you can enter the sweepstakes for free by sending mail to the Official Donald Trump NFT Sweepstakes in Newark, NY. So, if you are truly a fan of the former President for whatever reason and don’t want to hurt the environment by purchasing his NFTs, you can get a single entry into the sweepstakes that way.
