Some MAGA supporters who paid for Donald Trump watches are seriously ticked off. The majority of reviews for GetTrumpWatches on Trustpilot give the company just one star, with some people complaining that it is a “scam.”

The timepieces are made by TheBestWatchesonEarth LLC and range from $499 to $2,999 per watch, or $5,389 for the “Ultra Mega Collector Set.” The president has been criticized for hawking them on cable TV as a government shutdown drags on over healthcare funding.

On Jan. 8 Lemme be Frank, from Switzerland—a country famed for its watches—wrote, “Absolutely horrible customer service. Do not buy any of these garbage products. Avoid like the plague!!”

    They go to religion every week, where some asshole liar just lies to them for an hour or two, until they’re so used to being lied to - they just can’t tell the difference anymore.

    You want less stupid suckers? Less religion.

    the christian nazis want more stupid suckers. They want more religion.

    There’re solutions for this shit. You gotta stop supporting religions. All of them.

      You are anti-religion, and although I am in the majority and have had a social advantage for ages, I feel that you are attacking me and that I am persecuted for judging everyone that is not exactly like me.

      Seriously, can the aliens abduct us any quicker?

      Even as a child I was puzzled as to why God finds blind faith virtuous. Among many other questions, the adults and preacher couldn’t satisfy me. Figured I was just a kid and would understand later in life.

      When you’ve had faith = virtue beat into your head from childhood, you’re worldview is going to be stunted.

        Something makes me doubt they were trying.

        …jokes aside, most people in that sort of position don’t want to convince you, they want to force you.

          They honestly tried because they believed! These were white-bread Presbyterians, salt of the land, morons. But it’s a hella indictment on your belief system when a 9-yo don’t buy it.

      It’s not even uniquely American, it’s the same right wing, nationalistic, authoritarian, traditional rhetoric used as everywhere else, it’s just more religious believing countries like the US tend to be more susceptible to this type of ideology rhetoric because it usually uses the same language and feelings as religious belief.

      Compare a maga politician’s speech with a conservative preacher’s sermon, the phrases and words and lack of justification through evidence. Faith, specifically Christian defined faith as belief without evidence, is negligent thinking those beliefs are justified knowledge and while many people can participate in religions without becoming extremists, it also leads to extremist cults stuff like David koresh, maga, Jim Jones, etc. it is also being worsened by the more liberal, less fundamentalist believers leaving churches or splitting to a different church like the recent Methodists schism.

      Don’t believe fairy tales or sermons or stories about money.
