The Only Good Trump is a Dead One
According to a t-shirt now being sold by a third-party distributor through Amazon.com
Yes, this is a third-party retailer selling through Amazon, not Amazon itself, but the distinction is small because all merchandise sold through Amazon has to be approved by Amazon.
Absolutely no way a t-shirt like this about anyone on the left would be allowed by Amazon or anyone else, not that there would be much of a market for one except among the most sociopathic, it would sell to a few on the right and mostly be bought be the extreme left, for whom, as was once (accurately) said about Bertrand Russell "Any excuse is a good enough excuse to commit homicide"

I am not going to link to it, if you want to see it, go to Amazon and search for yourself, it's there. Certain things I just won't link to.

Didn't search for that one, but I did search for Trump t-shirts, and there was plenty of MAGA stuff, so they may just be making a decision on what they think sells. I know they are liberal, but I have no doubt that it's all about the bottom line.

Just went through pages and pages of Amazon listings, if it did exist it does not now.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if some seller got it posted, maybe sold a few (maybe not) and then got reported to Amazon (or got noticed by their AI, or whatever), who pulled the listing. Amazon sells some despicable stuff (and is basically an evil company in general), but it's hard to believe they'd pre-approve a shirt like that. I don't know exactly how the listings work, but there's certainly no person or persons looking through new listings and giving approval before they go up, right?

It could also be that Amazon employs at least some people who would approve such things. Or that it was approved by mistake. Things like that do happen.

Exactly. In doing that search, I saw some shirts that I would not approve in a million years.

Amazon is run by a sociopath. So I'm not surprised this is happening.

Because everyone knows Mr Bezos sits in his office and approves every one of the 350 million items that get sold on Amazon.

He approves of the policy that is used to discriminate.
