>Trump's icon hasn’t come cheap.

>The Trump campaign spent $651,731 on hats alone, according to filings with the Federal Election Commission.

>And that’s just the amount Trump spent at Cali-Fame, the Southern California factory printing the “Make America Great Again” hats. An additional $540,163 was spent on items that – while also funding T-shirts and stickers – include the purpose of hat-making.

>In total, Trump has thrown down a whopping $1.8 million on merchandise, the most within the Republican field. The only other candidate who comes close is retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson, who spent $1.1 million on merchandise.
>>
People buy the product though and it most certainly is priced for profit of to break even.

That hat has already become a cultural icon similar to the Obama poster or "I Like Ike". He is doing ridiculously well on the merchandising front. Wouldn't having to spend more on merchandise be indicative of them needing more inventory you fucking halfwit?

This is retarded. He doesn't give them away for free.

So? Thats good.

He has a lot of money to spend on hats? Money he will certainly make back tenfold once he gets the nomination.

I won't buy one until he makes the nomination.

Not to mention, he hasn't spent hardly anything on ads. The media does the publicity for him.

And yet it managed to reach more people than adverts ever will.

That's a sign of good business sense there; and people call trump retarded...

Are they implying he's not making profit off the hats? That's why you sell campaign gear, to raise money for your campaign.

If he's spent more than anyone else, he's also made more than anyone else (presuming everything sells, which is likely in Trump's case and not so likely in, say, Jeb's)

This whole thing reeks of not an argument

How much money has been generated selling the hats. how much has been earned with the production and use of the hats?

There is a reason why 1.8 million on merchandise seems questionable to some people, and why to others its completely reasonable. There is a reason why 1.8 million seems like alot of money to some people, and to trump, while non trivial, is a very small amount of money.

He would have made even more profit had he let foreigners buy the hat, but have the proceeds go directly to another of his businesses instead of his campaign.

He has spent less than any of the candidates. His hats alone are a bigger marketing success than anything the other candidates can even come up with.
Trump is great at coming up with slogans. He's good with words in general.

You do realize he earns a profit on every sat hold, right?

Thats how business works. That $1.8 million is an investment, which will return more than $1.8 million to the campaign, when he sells all the hats.

No wonder you people want communism, you don't even understand the most basic fundamentals of business. I suggest you start by selling weed and learn how to work your way up from buying less than half an ounce to several ounces, all from the money you used to by the half ounce.

Maybe in your country. Still, it matters the structure of the cap and how you wear it.

Yes, unless you're just building up inventory that doesn't move, input costs are usually a sign of a successful enterprise.

He's moving the product, so he needs to buy lots to sell lots and keep up with demand.

Also, Carson had to fire people because they were spending beyond their capabilities. I bet you that 1.1 million he spent was considered far too much at some point.

Trump has the money though, thanks for posting this story, it reminds people hes making his hats in the US and that people are undercutting him by making them in China... ironically proving his point about needing to make it more expensive for people to make shit overseas to bring jobs back home.

A hat is $25 and I paid $8 in shipping for it to get to my house.

>Donald Trump’s hats have quickly become a signature totem of the 2016 campaign, a kitsch magnet that serves ironic hipsters and sincere supporters alike. The red-and-white caps are emblazoned with the real estate mogul’s oft-repeated slogan, “Make America Great Again.”
But look around the factory floor where these hats are being made by the thousands, and you’ll find faces that don’t seem to fit into Trump’s America.

>Yolanda Melendrez is one of them. Melendrez, an immigrant from Mexico who was brought to the United States by her parents when she was a baby, has worked at the Carson-based Cali-Fame headwear company since 1991.

>“When we first got the order [for the Trump hats], I said to myself, ‘Just wait until he sees who’s making his hats. We’re Latinos, we’re Mexicans, Salvadoreños.’”

>Melendrez, 44, started out as a machine operator, stitching the seams of baseball caps. She now works as a lead on the floor, roaming as she checks on the flow of work, supervising other sewing machine operators and embroiders. She became a citizen when she was 20; her parents are permanent residents. Melendrez was 14 when she had her first child, and the job has helped her pay rent and put food on the table for her kids, she says.

Why are these people unaware that this was intentional? Do they think they're the only clothing manufacturer in the US?

It's just another Trump trap. He was waiting for the media to go "REEEEEEEEEEEE! HE IS USING ILLEGALS TO MANUFACTURE HIS HATS! HYPOCRITEEEEE!!"
And then he'd point out it was made by legal immigrants. In California.

Only issue is that since these are campaign contributions private individuals are forbidden to "donate" more than a certain amount. So with this kind of demand that individual would reach market cap quickly.

I'm guessing this is $10 a pop delivered to Trump Inc. so that means he has sold 65,173 hats.

At a potential profit after shipping and handling he's likely to have made $10 per hat, so he earned a 50% profit selling hats.

Total proft generated from hat sales: $325,865
