Getting a personalized greeting from Donald John Trump is about on par with gnawing on Trump Steaks™ gristle or being spirited away to a Florida fen by a mass of Trump-branded bedbugs.
It’s not for me, but hey, surely someone will bite. He may even get more than Barry Williams, TV’s Greg Brady, does on Cameo. For those unaware, Cameo is a popular website that allows mostly washed-up celebrities to record personalized messages for people’s birthdays and graduations and other events that could use a little boost of, say, Kirk Cameron.
Again, Trump won’t get a penny from me, but presumably there’s still a market. For now, anyway.
Get a load of this.
I thought this was from a well-done parody site. It’s not. Trump has - as phrased by @MazJobrani - I can barely type this let alone believe this - he has... he has STARTED HIS OWN CAMEO!He’s ThisClose to doing infomercials for catheters https://t.co/sQ79xnOwqc pic.twitter.com/Ji2B5FUrmc— Keith Olbermann (@KeithOlbermann) March 30, 2021

And here’s what the “45 Office” link says:

Of course, there’s no pricing information, because that would be gauche, but as Olbermann points out in his tweet, this is the equivalent of starting a Cameo.
Yeah, this guy is clearly a billionaire. I’m embarrassed that I ever dared question his massive wealth and earning potential.
So anyone want to pitch in for a message? My first idea is to tell him I’ve just opened up a Christian bookstore called The Glory Hole and I’ll need a massive grand opening to make it work. And he has just the grand opening to sell it.
If that doesn’t work, I’ll just see if I can convince him to eat a bug.
Say, didn’t Trump once criticize the Obamas’ Netflix deal? At least they’re not engaging in the presidential equivalent of hanging out at truck stops, trading services for a pack of Sno Balls and a lift to Branson, Missouri.
But, hey, Trump was the worst president ever; why shouldn’t he be the worst former president, too?
”This guy is a natural. Sometimes I laugh so hard I cry." — Bette Midler on author Aldous J. Pennyfarthing via Twitter. Need a thorough Trump cleanse? Thanks to Goodbye, Asshat: 101 Farewell Letters to Donald Trump, Dear F*cking Lunatic, Dear Pr*sident A**clown and Dear F*cking Moron, you can purge the Trump years from your soul sans the existential dread. Only laughs from here on out. Click those links, yo!
UPDATE: In the interest of fairness, as one of the commenters pointed out, Barack Obama has a page where people can request greetings, too. In fact, it’s a lot like Trump’s page. So are they “engaging in the presidential equivalent of hanging out at truck stops, trading services for a pack of Sno Balls and a lift to Branson, Missouri” as I noted above? Well, I can only assume they’re more dignified about it, but that’s just an assumption. More importantly, though, they never sold off-brand steaks or pretended to be billionaires. And, anyway,
… they haven’t gone out of their way to establish their awfulness.
