Slip-Streaming on the Grift

When Donald J. Trump’s childhood home in Queens was on the market four years ago, Mr. Trump, then a candidate for president, publicly mused about buying it himself.

Now, he might not have to: The home’s latest owner is launching a crowdfunding campaign with the goal of giving the five-bedroom Tudor in Jamaica Estates to the president as a gift — once the $3 million price tag is met.

The unusual real estate maneuver seeks to capitalize on the devotion of some of Mr. Trump’s supporters, in the hopes that the same commitment that has driven them to attend his large rallies in the middle of a pandemic will also induce them to open their wallets. The sellers hope donations might also be fueled by an impulse to mollify Mr. Trump with a personalized parting gift as his presidential term nears its end.

The article goes on to show how prvious owners have been trying to capitalize on the fact that Our National Orange-Haired Dumpster Fire lived there when he was a child. His family moved away when he was four, so it's not as though he would remember it.

But this is just another Trump-related grift, though not by anyone who is associated with Trump. So far as we know.

So let me get this straight: they want to buy Donald Trump a house? I've known some spectacularly delusional addicts in my time, but nothing that even approaches wanting to buy Donald Trump a house.
