Trump pitches watches, crypto and his wife's book in the campaign's final weeks

A new cryptocurrency platform.

A new cryptocurrency platform. An upcoming memoir authored by his wife. A set of NFT trading cards. Watches that cost as much as $100,000.

With just weeks left before the November election, former President Donald Trump has taken to promoting items and businesses that are not at all connected to his presidential campaign.

“You’re going to love them,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform last week of his new line of branded watches, which cost anywhere from $499 to $100,000. They’re being offered through a vendor that has a licensing agreement with him. “Would make a great Christmas gift.”

While running for president this cycle, Trump has also promoted a sneaker brand, boots and even Bibles — all of which are business and not campaign ventures. He has long mixed business with politics; prior to his legal battles that have raged for years now, those potential conflicts of interest were the subject of far greater attention.

But the fact that Trump is promoting his business interests again in the closing weeks of the campaign has his Democratic rivals saying it is proof he is unfocused, and even some of his allies saying the effort is unwise.
