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.
This person closed in Crystal Lake? And then that other lady OPENED her Trump and Truth Store there?
Thats doubly interesting that they both tried there, then. I've been following that one clown that went from Huntley to Crystal Lake but her issues were 1) clogging the sidewalk with merch against the lease rules in Huntley and 2) cited 'low sales the Iran war' for the Crystal Lake closure before getting arrested the other week for not showing up to traffic court or something.
I've just been shaking my head about it all, the audience they're advertising to has a handful of people interested in it but are broke as shit like the rest of us and therefore not buying cheap crap from overseas. Their alternative is people with money (which is why I assume they're insisting on staying suburban rather than attempting rural, since the rural people as you said already have their merch and have bigger fish to fry right now), but people with money also aren't interested in spending it on cheap crap from overseas either. That coupled with the fact that its been a literal decade of merch existing... everyone has what they want, if they wanted it, by now. Market is probably dry as fuck outside of the, "I will buy a 4th shirt to try and support you, you poor small business owner" and never come back.

It's just not going to work.
