In May 2017 President Trump launched a monthly "Big League Box" subscription for campaign merchandise.
On 29 May 2017, reporters tweeted screenshots of e-mails they received from President Trumpâ€™s mailing list, inviting recipients to take advantage of a subscription called the â€œBig League Boxâ€: < The Trump campaign is taking the @birchbox subscription approach, introducing the â€œbig league boxâ€ pic.twitter.com/41zUCxAlYA â€” Betsy Klein (@betsy_klein) May 29, 2017 > Not everyone was convinced the boxes were legitimate: < IT SCARES ME TOO but fortunately its a joke and not real (i googled big league boxes trump and it took me to that tweet) â€” Nosh (@qqnosh) May 29, 2017 > < President Donald Trump will reportedly take a page from the subscription box business model with his own monthly box full of stuff people probably donâ€™t want. As CNN reporter Betsy Klein tweeted Monday, the Trump Make America Great Again Committee will offer â€œBig League Boxes,â€ packed with â€œexclusive and vintageâ€ (read: old) Trump merchandise and delivered monthly to recurring donorsâ€™ doors. > Missing from all the articles was a link to the purported â€œBig League Boxesâ€ subscription signup page, and Trumpâ€™s web siteâ€™s â€œNewsâ€ section made no mention of the endeavor. However, we managed to track down the originalÂ link: < Get your Big League Box! Every month as a recurring donor â€“ you will receive a handpicked bundle of exclusive and vintage OFFICIAL Donald J. Trump merchandise. Thereâ€™s a limited number of subscriptions available due to supplies. Get your first Big League Box delivered before June 30th [2017] with a recurring contribution of just $49 or more today. > It isÂ true that the web site offers â€œOFFICIAL Donald J. Trump merchandiseâ€ in monthly â€œBig League Boxesâ€ in exchange for a â€œrecurring contribution of just $49 or more.â€ (Some versions of the e-mail reportedly asked for â€œ$69 or more.â€) As of 31 May 2017, no one had reported purchasing or receiving the boxes to describe its contents, but the link and advertisement (archived above) areÂ real.
