'Make America rake again': Four Seasons Total Landscaping cashes in on Trump fiasco. By Victoria Bekiempis
A gardening firm, situated between crematorium and sex shop, played comic role in final throes of president’s campaign. As Donald Trump’s rise was accompanied by branded merchandise – steaks, ties, boxers and red Maga hats – so his descent may come to be known by the stickers, shirts and hoodies now being sold by an obscure Pennsylvanian landscaping company that wound up playing a comic and widely celebrated role in the final throes of the president’s re-election campaign.
Four Seasons Total Landscaping – a Philadelphia
grounds-keeping company situated between a crematorium and a sex shop where on
Saturday Rudy Giuliani somehow held a press
conference about baseless claims of
voter fraud – has swiftly sought to cash in on its newfound fame, selling
merchandise emblazoned with Trump-inspired puns.
“MAKE AMERICA RAKE AGAIN”, read one sticker on sale on the company website on Monday. It also featured the phrase “LAWN AND ORDER!” The stickers were selling for $5 each. The company’s apparel seemed meant to look like political campaign gear. On a $50 hoodie, an American flag was positioned below the shoulder while the company’s name, in large letters across the chest, sat above an even larger “92”. That number appeared to refer to when Four Seasons Total Landscaping was founded – not the year Bill Clinton beat George HW Bush for the White House. A range of $25 T-shirts featured the same design.
Four Seasons Total Landscaping’s rise to fame was as
precipitous as it was, to the world, hilarious….
