Idk, the attempt didn't go great. Wake me up if there's another though - might be interested in a t-shirt showcasing that one.

I only want the tshirt when it’s commemorating his actual assassination

I don't think it's just China, or if you just scroll the "best selling" list of Amazon literally right now. People will try to exploit damn near anything for some cash it seems.

Well, news sites can't exploit it by selling T-shirts but they can exploit it even better by putting an artificial focus on China for extra political connotations!

Shit, someone posted a picture of one of those boardwalk screenprinting places with ones for sale less than 2 hours later

Why is anyone shocked by this? Have these people never heard of fucking redbubble?

The raised-fist salute of the MAGA foot-soldiers. They're doing it at the GOP convention tonight.
