TRUMP LEASES his name and brand. There is NO proof that the Trump organization owns the store!

People are so full of Trump hate that they try to blame him for everything bad!

Trump Tower shoppers scouring gift shop shelves for Make American Great Again merchandise got a shocking surprise, Gothamist reported.

On Monday afternoon a New York City artist snuck into the store, sprinkling Trump-branded KKK hoods, rubber sheets and Russian flags throughout the store.

The packaging on the fear-inducing face coverings suggested they were for "very fine people" — a riff off Donald Trump's controversial comments in the wake of the Charlottesville, Va., Unite the Right rally that drew hundreds of neo-Nazis and white supremacists.


A postcard display was also infiltrated with photos of Vladimir Putin as "the 45th President of the United States" and "First Lady" Ivanka Trump.

"We thought the tourists coming in to buy some stuff, especially people from other countries, should get the whole story of who the president is, because the items in the Trump store don't accurately reflect the person," one-half of the two-person artist/pranker duo told Gothamist.

"My partner was in the back putting in some of the items and he said to someone, 'Oh did you see this?' and they didn't even bat an eye."

According to Gothamist the postcards remained on display through Tuesday morning. The publication sent staffers to attempt to purchase some of the prank merchandise, which prompted a sales associate to have them removed from the store.

Within an hour of the attempted sale, Gothamist reported that the items appeared to have been removed.
