The merchandise machine: watches, sneakers, bibles, fragrances, '2028' hats

Throughout the term the family ran a continuous stream of branded consumer products sold while in office: luxury 'Trump' watches (some priced around $100,000), God Bless the USA Bibles, Trump sneakers, fragrances, guitars, and 'Trump 2028' hats, among others - many promoted around official events and moments. Trump's disclosures show income lines from these licensing and merchandise ventures.

Individually minor, collectively they form a persistent monetization engine that keeps the presidential brand for sale as physical merchandise during the presidency. The '2028' hats are notable for marketing a third term the Constitution's Twenty-Second Amendment forecloses, turning even that into product.

This is a roll-up card: it does not add a single event but names the ongoing merchandise stream that runs parallel to the crypto and telecom ventures, feeding the family's overall in-office income (FAM-12).
