October 29, 2017 Do you have your 'Trumpy Bear'? By Rick Moran
Is it real? Or is it a spoof?
That question is being asked about a product that's been available since July, but is only just now being marketed on TV.
It's called "Trumpy Bear" and it appears to be a genuine effort by Exceptional Products, Inc. to appeal to Trump fans. Either that, or it is a scathingly brilliant put up job.
The teddy bear features a mop of blond hair that you can comb so that your Trumpy Bear's hair is never out of place. It also comes with an American flag blanket you can wrap yourself and your Trumpy Bear in to keep warm and cozy.
The commercial on YouTube - it has nearly 400,000 hits - features a picture of a grizzly bear with a voice over deeply intoning:
Zitat The wind whispered through the forest a storm is coming, you can not defeat the storm. From the trees rose a resounding voice, I fear nothing. I come when the Trumpet sounds. I am the Storm.
TRUMPY BEAR
The great American Grizzly introducing the original Trumpy Bear. The fearless super plus American Grizzly.
Does Trumpy Bear look like a grizzly? No, but it's great marketing. As for the rest, decide for yourself if this flag waving, patriotic display is for real.
What makes this product so brilliantly concieved is that it appeals to both pro and anti Trump Americans. If you're a never trumper, you can always buy it in order to deface or destroy it.
But if you're looking to get your money back, the company is one step ahead of you.
Sorry, we cannot accept returns of intentionally damaged bears.
I urge you to buy Trumpy Bear. You can put him on a shelf next to your Chia Obama.
