Good Riddance: The Trump Truth Store

#1 Post by silverscreenselect » Tue Apr 07, 2026 12:26 am

The Trump Truth Store, a merchandise shop in Crystal Lake, a Chicago suburb, has closed its doors due to poor sales, just a few months after opening.
The MAGA shop was stocked with kitschy $25 T-shirts reading, “GOD GUNS AND TRUMP 2024,” “ICE ICE BABY,” and “DEPARTMENT OF DOGE.” Owner Lisa Fleischmann blamed poor sales, tracing the slump back to Trump’s Feb. 28 launch of his war with Iran.

“Sales were really slow. It all started with the war. It was dead as a door nail the minute that happened,” Fleischmann told the [Chicago] Tribune. She believes potential customers are shying away from buying or wearing pro-Trump merchandise because of the conflict, which is widely unpopular and has driven a wedge in the president’s MAGA base. “I think (customers) are unsure what’s going on. Not everyone. But I think a majority of people are unsure what’s going on… And if you wear it, they feel someone might come up to them and ask them questions,” Fleischmann said.

Fleischmann announced on Facebook on March 26 that her MAGA shop “is closed until further notice,” according to the Tribune. She had moved her store to its current location in mid-January. “I am not even making ½ of my rent,” she wrote. “I never did this for the money but I don’t know how much longer I can last with paying for all the stuff.”

I usually sympathize with small businesses that are hit hard by Trump's economy.

Not this time.

Or shout in your face, throw paint on you, block your car, cuss out your children...whatever. Because that's what the looney leftists do.
..what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? let them take arms.

War is where the government tells you who the bad guy is.
Revolution is when you decide that for yourself.
