(TA News, Oxon Hills, MD 3/6/2019) Two days after President Trump’s historic speech to CPAC at Oxon Hill, someone appears to have gotten the flag he held and is selling it in replicate on eBAY!
The ad appears to offer several for sale at $100 but TA has found that there are only 25 actual flags for sale from this event.
The flags are the property of the venue manager, Liberty Events, LLC. Liberty Events is a registered corporation in Maryland and is the holding company for a number of properties managed by Eric Trump including ET Safarees, the sponsor of Mr. Trump’s elephant hunts in Rhodesia (now called “Zimbabwe”).
TA contacted Liberty Events for comment. They affirmed that the flags were all exhibited at CPAC but they can not guarantee which one was actually embraced by the President. The representative, a Ms. Anzhelika Pavlovska, assured us that all the flags had been washed after the display to remove any possible traces of DNA. (Apparently this is required by the Secret Service to prevent Mr. Trump’s DNA samples from being obtained by his enemies). Ms. Pavloska also told us that signatures on the flags are facsimile, though of very high quality, “the best!.”
A fool and his money are soon parted.
