President Donald Trump’s campaign has been caught upcharging prospective buyers on a Black Friday sale.
The campaign’s Black Friday fundraising email hawks multiple items that appear to contain higher prices than what’s listed on its website, according to Meidas Touch. The report found one email advertised a red MAGA hat ornament at a “reduced” price of $37, claiming a “30% off deal.” However, the campaign’s own website simultaneously listed the same item for $30.
Another fundraising email touted a “new low price” of $32 for a 2026 MAGA calendar, with the campaign claiming it was “feeling extra thankful” for supporters. The email marketed the item as part of a “30% off deal.” Yet, the campaign website listed the calendar at $25.
The upcharging comes as Americans feel the squeeze from stubborn inflation and higher prices due to the president’s steep tariffs. Trump has consistently claimed with little evidence that his policies have effectively eliminated inflation and driven down prices.
