The RNC Tried to Sell a Trump Leash for National Puppy Day—It Didn't Go Well

The RNC Tried to Sell a Trump Leash for National Puppy Day—It Didn't Go Well
DonaldjTrump.com

Friday, March 23, was National Puppy Day, a holiday beloved by all people of the world and, for that matter, all puppies. The Republican National Committee tried to cash in on people's celebration with a truly unique sales opportunity: Donald Trump dog leashes.


The tweet leads directly to Donald Trump's website.

Once there, visitors can purchase the dog leash, which is decorated with the Trump/Pence campaign poster and MAGA (Make America Great Again) inscriptions. The product's description reads:

Your faithful companion will thank you when you take him or her for a walk with our MAGA Pet leash. Whether it's a walk in the park or just around the block, you'll make your walk great again with this functional and fashionable leash.

Twitter users were less than excited about the new product.

National Puppy Day turned out to be pretty hard for the RNC.

Donald Trump's relationship with animals has historically been a little dicey.

One of the largest threats to animal life on earth is climate change, a scientific reality recognized by almost all reputable scientists, and being dealt with by the vast majority of developed countries. Meanwhile, Donald Trump made the United States the only country in the world to withdraw from the Paris Climate Accord and Scott Pruitt, Trump's head of the Environmental Protection Agency, publicly questioned even the most basic facts about climate change as recently as March 9, 2018, in an interview with CNBC:

I would not agree that [CO2] is a primary contributor to the global warming that we see. I believe that measuring with precision human activity on the climate is something very challenging to do, and there's tremendous disagreement about the degree of impact.

While some scientists disagree on the degree to which humankind is affecting the environment, the overwhelming majority agree the effect is measurable and destructive to the environment.

Either way, it's doubtful earth-dwelling creatures like dogs are big fans of the President.

Trump Ripped For Hypocrisy After Claiming He 'Doesn't Know' Who Crypto Founder He Just Pardoned Is

President Donald Trump was criticized after he claimed during a sit-down interview with 60 Minutes correspondent Norah O'Donnell that he doesn't know who Binance cryptocurrency exchange founder Changpeng Zhao is despite pardoning him less than two weeks ago.

In 2023, Zhao pleaded guilty to violating anti–money laundering laws after Binance allegedly failed to report suspicious transactions involving groups such as Hamas and al-Qaida. He later apologized, paid a $50 million fine, and served nearly four months in prison before being pardoned by Trump.

Gavin Newsom Expertly Trolls Trump Administration With Parody Spirit Halloween Costume Memes

California Governor Gavin Newsom had social media users cackling after he, in a series of photos on X, mocked Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. with photoshopped meme versions of Spirit Halloween costumes.

Noem, who has led the nationwide immigration crackdown that continues to tear apart families around the country, is the "Border Barbie" of one meme that pokes fun at her for shooting her dog, her penchant for bringing camera crews wherever she goes, and the way South Park writers lampooned her in one of its most widely-seen episodes this year.
