    That is outrageous! Selling temporary tattoos for $9 to fund a run for president ?!? She should be begging Wall Street and the Pharmaceutical companies for money like an honest politician does.

    Lock her up!

    Incontrovertible evidence she's a two faced hypocrite liar.

    You mean like Trump billing the secret service $30,000 for golf cart rentals so they can follow him around golfing?

    Not even close to an equivalence.

    I'm willing to bet that Trump has made more overbilling the government for stays at his own resorts than Pocahontas has made selling fake tattoos and candles.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Trump uses undocumented immigrant labor and outsourced labor for his products, while taking companies into bankruptcy to screw over all debt-holders, then campaigns on being a US-first populist who just happens to be a rich guy ("great businessman, the best"), who's kinda sorta self-funding his campaign with all that wealth. Not a hypocrite, potential to be a truly great President.

    Elizabeth Warren sells some trinkets on etsy to fund a campaign, two-faced liar.

    Just another day in the entirely consistent beliefs of an Internet libertarian.

    Let me ask you a simple question Denny.....which is more dangerous.....Warren's trinket shop or Trump's habitually hypocritical two faced insult laden lying...?
    yep.....Donald says he gave the keys to his kids....but the car is his.

    Trump isn't selling his brand as president. She is selling the perks of her office.

    It's not at all the same thing as an online site to accept political donations. She's selling shit and making money. Oddly, she's anti-capitalist yet the article exposes a capitalist.

    Jimmy Carter charges the secret service rent because they need a place to live while guarding him.

    No equivalency whatsoever.

    I don't condone either.

    I don't condone blaming one and shining on the other.

    From the article:

    "Elizabeth Warren is an increasingly popular brand that people want to associate with,” said Adam Green, co-founder of the Progressive Change Campaign Committee. “She's the Apple of politics."

    ...

    As much as anything else, the thriving business surrounding Warren

    He had that property before being president. Without her office, there'd be no trinkets making her profits.

    An equivalency would be Trump selling T-Shirts with his likeness and the presidential seal.
