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.

Tucker Carlson Dragged After Offering Truly Bonkers Theory For Why Trump Captured Nicolás Maduro

Former Fox News host turned far-right podcaster Tucker Carlson raised eyebrows after he claimed that President Donald Trump captured Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro in order to bring same-sex marriage to the people of a country now in a dangerous state of flux after the U.S. invaded.

Weirdly, he claimed “pro-gay forces” were secretly driving regime change, pointing to Nobel Peace Prize recipient and opposition leader María Corina Machado's support for same-sex marriage. He suggested this is proof that "globo homo," his term for progressive liberal elites, are hard at work.

Married People Explain How Often They Take Their Wedding Ring Off

When two people get married, there's an assumption that others tend to make: that the couple will wear their wedding rings no matter what, and if they don't, it's a sign of a troubled marriage and a lack of commitment.

But there are lots of reasons not to wear wedding rings full-time, from cleanliness to safety to health concerns.
