Autographed books on hats on Trump website were signed by machine

Donald Trump can’t even be honest about his signature.

Throughout now-President-elect Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, countless money was raised by offering signed items in exchange for a donation.

These items offered on his website, including signed hats and signed copies of his book “The Art of the Deal,” were heavily advertised on social media and by Trump himself. But what some buyers may not have realized is that it seems Trump didn’t actually sign any of the items available for purchase on his website with his own hand. Instead, the autographs all appear to have been done by an autopen machine, a device used to automatically sign a signature.

The use of an autopen machine only became evident to some after Trump won the election, when opportunists who had purchased such items off Trump’s website took to eBay to re-sell what they believed would be a more valuable John Hancock.

What was soon obvious to some was that the Trump-signed hats, offered at various price points during the campaign on Trump’s website, including $125, $183 and $243, all appear to be signed in the exact same place — the lower left of the hat brim, with not a single variance in any signature. Meanwhile, the bookplates in Trump’s “election edition” of “The Art of the Deal” — limited to a run of 30,000 copies, his campaign promised — featured a slightly different signature from the hat, but again, each book signature appears to be identical.

      If I had concern for any of them I would say it is not nice to pick on the mentally challenged. But the fact is, they chose to be that way.

        And they are doggedly staying that way, the more evidence piles up on how he conned them, they more they support him.

          I stopped banging my head over these idiots, they can not be explained. They have become nothing more than constant hypocrites.

    Ok republican donors, now is your chance to sue the tRump. Sue the fool that conned you and ripped you off. While you’re at it, would you please kindly ask him to resign. The trump card, the joker, the fool should not be the leader of this country or any other. We want to live in a world without wild-cards.

    I’ve heard of books on tape, but books on hats?

    “Stop moving your head; I’m trying to read!”
