How Miami Beach traffic stops led drivers to online pitches for Trump 2024 merchandise

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

In Miami Beach, getting pulled over by city police didn’t just mean a ticket for some drivers. Officers also handed them an invitation to check out a website selling Trump 2024 merchandise.

A city police flier in circulation until last week explaining how to resolve minor traffic tickets online dropped a crucial hyphen for a Miami-Dade County courts website, steering drivers away from a bland judicial portal and to an online store selling flags, videos and caps celebrating former President Donald Trump and his potential third run for the White House.

Offerings at miamidadeclerk.com include Trump 2024 camouflage caps, a DVD exploring the possibility of a “one-world centralized government” without Trump in the White House, and two Trump-themed flags featuring the obscenity “F***” (one paired with “Biden”, the other with “Your Feelings.”)

“We’re aware of this typographical error now,” Miami Beach police spokesperson Ernesto Rodriguez said of the fliers on Monday. “We put out a notice to officers to discontinue using them.”

1. I wonder if they were aware of the 'typographical error' before the invitations were circulated.

Perhaps someone on the inside set it up.

4. I agree with the judge.

The judge called it “disgusting” to see political merchandise sold at a web address with a judicial veneer.
