The news has been so full of tragedy, that I was pleased to find an item virtually guaranteed to put a smile on your face.  Thanks to progressive pranksters, the gift shop in the Temple of Greed, aka Trump Towers, briefly offered items appropriate to the true character of Putin’s Piddle Puppet and his Republican Reich.<\/font><\/p>\n

Ku Klux Klan hoods and urine-proof bed sheets were for sale at Trump Tower\u2019s gift shop this week. <\/p>\n

According to local news outlet Gothamist<\/a>, two pranksters slipped the satirical merchandise into Manhattan\u2019s Trump Tower on Monday.<\/p>\n

The fake merchandise included a KKK hood \u201cfor fine people,\u201d packages of urine-proof rubber sheets, a Russian \u201cTrump\u201d flag, and a postcard featuring Putin as the 45th President of the United States, among other things.<\/p>\n

Gothamist checked to see if the items were still available on Tuesday \u2014 and they were.<\/p>\n

But clerks at the store apparently caught on to the prank after Gothamist tried to buy the items. The reporters were promptly ordered out of the store. Within an hour, all the items appeared to have been removed…<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
