What has also received air time? The "Official USA 45th Presidential Hat," for sale by Trump's campaign for $40.

The watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, or CREW, points out that the president has been pictured wearing the hat, both in red and in white, in two official photos released by the White House. He wore the white version on his trip to Houston Tuesday.

"Even removed from the hurricane, it's pretty inappropriate," CREW spokesman Jordan Libowitz said. The issue at play here is free advertising for Trump products, according to CREW.

“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint and dill and cumin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law: justice and mercy and faithfulness. These you ought to have done, without neglecting the others. You blind guides, straining out a gnat and swallowing a camel!” - Jesus, Matthew 23:23-24

Who gives a crap, we have things with Mao, Che, Trayvon and no one seems to mind. Is Trump producing them for sale? If he was wouldn’t it be like selling a book written by him?

The only appropriate response to that is: “Suck it!”

Are we supposed to take Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, or CREW seriously about this or anything else? They must have run out of real ethical issues to investigate.
