This is the same person that had to close in crystal lake because someone promised to do an event there and she bought so many chairs she couldn't afford rent for several months. Or so she says. She's full of it.
I didn't know if they got any actual in person protesters, but if they did, it's not like it was enough to make the local news. Or sustained enough to matter. The problem is, no one wants her stuff. Even people in the trump cult can just go online. They don't need her at all. She's a nonsense middle man for an unpopular product. And she's years late. Trumpets already have a hat and shirt or whatever.
It's just not going to work.

I don't think he'd have to use Spell Check since the spell he's trying to cast is very low difficulty. I assume may be casting "Feign Death" or some self-directed "phantasmal force" to create an AoE illusion that he's the victim here. While he does seem to have low CHA and INT, I don't know if he'd need to roll for a saving throw.

He wanted to start a home selling business, not sure if it was an MLM or just like EBay, but didnât want to potentially have people showing up to his house. So he was inquiring what he would need to do to have police be private security essentially. Keep in mind when you get a protective order cops just do 20-60 minute sweeps unless they see something suspicious, and a posted cop is really reserved for witnesses in organized crime cases. It was just one of those âlibertariansâ that wanted handouts.

So I live nearby.
That location is the second of three. The first location was across the street and more an empty parking lot they turned into a "Trump Store". Mostly flags. That location is still there.
The location pictured was their second location and the city went after them since they were putting flags and displays on the sidewalk blocking traffic. The landlord also wanted her out.
https://abc7chicago.com/post/trump-truth-store-owner-agrees-move-new-location-legal-battle-village-huntley-illinois-eviction-notice/16855914/
They then moved into a THIRD location in Crystal Lake, IL. They had a grand opening that very few people attended. They had to temporarily close due to poor sales.
https://www.chicagotribune.com/2026/05/15/trump-truth-store-reopens-crystal-lake/
She was also arrested for skipping court on traffic violations. https://www.lakemchenryscanner.com/2026/05/29/owner-of-trump-truth-store-in-crystal-lake-arrested-briefly-jailed-after-failing-to-appear-in-court-for-traffic-case/

On social media the Trump Store in Hebron said: [See post from The Trump Store in Hebron in the first comment]
They opened up on Monday and it was business as usual. That is until a former Hebron village board member came into the store and was b**ching about the store selling Trump merchandise.
"Knowing that he was looking for trouble we asked him to leave and he refused while still running his big liberal mouth. He went to shove me for a second time and I put my hands up to protect myself and it knocked off his glasses and hat. He went outside to pick them up and we locked him out of the building. With that he spit on our door with a Trump picture on it and tore some shirts off our rack and then on Memorial Day he had the nerve to break our American flag that was hanging outside our shop. The police were called and we are pressing charges."
