Forget the debate between socialism and democracy — the 2020 election is coming down to a contest between paper and recyclable straws.
President Trump’s reelection campaign is calling on supporters to reject “liberal paper straws” that turn soggy and “stand” with the president and “buy your pack of recyclable straws today.”
The website touts Trump’s tubes as BPA free, 9-inches long, laser-engraved with the president’s name and made in the USA.
They go $15 for a pack of 10.
Trump’s campaign manager, Brad Parscale, stirred people’s political appetites for the straws in an email on Friday.
“I’m so over paper straws, and I’m sure you are too. Much like most liberal ideas, paper straws don’t work and they fall apart instantly. That’s why we just launched our latest product – Official Trump Straws,” he wrote. “Now you can finally be free from liberal paper straws that fall apart within minutes and ruin your drink.”
In a tweet, Parscale said “Making Straws Great Again #Trump2020.”

And the pint glasses were sold out, darn it.
Recyclable?
They actually make biodegradable straws out of sugar cane that feel real. I hate paper straws
Countdown til “Trump straws are made in China!”
And of course straws are racist...
But while Trump is making money from straws, democrats are just grasping at them.
Red Robin now has table tents that say, “In order to protect the environment, straws are available only upon request.” F you, Red. I’ll take my business to a restaurant that isn’t a bunch of busybody nannies.
We bought 2 sets, one for us, one as a gag gift.
Why do people even use straws. We NEVER have done it at home. They were really for Sodas....like Ice cream and root beer....in my day.....1950s.
Freedom means: you can use a straw ... just because.
Straws are for girls.
Drinking soda and juice with less danger to your teeth from the sugar.
