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.

Fox News Host Apologizes After His Suggestion That Homeless People Be Euthanized Sparks Outrage

Fox and Friends host Brian Kilmeade was criticized for suggesting that homeless people with mental health issues get "involuntary lethal injection" after the murder of Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska on a train in North Carolina—and was swiftly condemned for an insincere apology several days after the fact as many are calling for Fox News to terminate his contract.

Zarutska was stabbed to death at the East/West Boulevard station on the Lynx Blue Line in Charlotte last month; her killer, a homeless man with a history of mental health issues, has since been charged with first-degree murder.

Nancy Mace Just Tried To Claim She's Never 'Dehumanized' Her Colleagues—And The Internet Brought The Receipts

South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace was called out for hypocrisy after she claimed on CNN that Democrats in Congress have been "dehumanizing" Republicans, a move she would "never" do—despite her record of doing just that.

Speaking to anchor Katie Bolduan while the search for the suspect who killed far-right activist Charlie Kirk was ongoing, Mace objected to Bolduan's observation that she was using "us v. them" language, only saying that things are "very one-sided right now." She also suggested that the situation is so bad for her that she's actually afraid of "just walking out in public."
