CafePress: Anti-Hillary Merchandise Outselling Anti-Trump Gear by over 814 Percent
Breitbart ^ | September 4,2016 | by KATIE MCHUGH

While some polls after the Republican and Democratic conventions show Donald Trump tied with Hillary Clinton, internet retailer CafePress claims it can accurately track the electorate’s mood with its large consumer base — and customers appear to be decidedly anti-Hillary.

Anti-Hillary merchandise outsells anti-Trump merchandise by a staggering 814.88 percent, according to the Louisville Business First. (Both the site and CafePress are based in Louisville, Kentucky.) Anti-Hillary gear also outsells pro-Trump products. Given that Trump supporters are chased, beaten, and intimidated for showing their support in public, the pro-Trump sentiment could be suppressed.

Sales in 2016 are 50 percent higher than they were in 2012.

“That’s the energized vote bank that’s going to show up on Election Day. That’s the most passionate part of the population,” said CEO Fred Durham. “They’re all going to the polls. You buy stuff, you’re actually going to vote.” Most of the products sold are also designed by users.

Trump is gaining ground in critical swing states and is neck-and-neck with her in some national polls.

The store has predicted with 100% accuracy, the outcome of every presidential election since 2000.

It looks to be calling it this year for Donald J. Trump.

Careful, some jagoff didn’t see the word “prison” on my shirt and yelled “Hillary Sucks” at me, as if I was a supporter.

People who vote their wallets are more accurate predictors of voting preference than people who tell pollsters for whom they will vote.

The money unequivocally says our next President will be Trump.

I really wouldn’t read too much into this; the 47% is simply unable to spare free money normally spent on smokes, pot, drugs, alcohol, and soda pop for frivolities such as campaign protest-wear.

Huh?

Hillary isn’t going to get 47%. In the media polls, she’s polling in the low 40s.

In non-media polls, Hillary is in the high 30s.

Maybe its because no one is excited about Hillary.

Sure people will vote for her but she’s not a draw like Obama - or even Kerry.

In fairness, Kerry did serve in Vietnam (somewhat dishorably) and the half Arab Obama does look black and doesn't cough while reading off a teleprompter.

What is anti-Trump gear - a wig that looks like a bad hair day.

I never questioned Obama’s health. I questioned his birth here and his patriotism and his insanely liberal policies. But I can see he is perfectly healthy.

Hilary is obviously not.

The reason for the difference in sales is simple. The LEFT gives their SWAG away while the RIGHT has to make a purchase.

Hillary is plain nasty — even without the brain damage. She doesn’t even have an amusing style to her lying as her fellow sociopath Bill has.

“In non-media polls, Hillary is in the high 30s.”

Supports my belief that Hillary could disembowel a child onstage, consume the entrails, vomit them back up then lick it off the floor live on prime-time television and still get 35% of the vote.

I don’t want to be a “Debbie Downer” but I went and looked at the 2012 Romney gear and Romney was selling 4 times as much as Obama back then toward the Fall. I hope I’m wrong. BELIEVE me. I WANT to believe that Trump is victorious!
