There are more designs than Superman, including cowboy Trump, astronaut Trump, and football coach Trump. And because it wouldn’t be Trump without layers of grift, every card people buy enters them into a sweepstakes for a chance to win Trump-related prizes. (As with all sweeps, there is a also a way to enter without making a purchase). There is one guaranteed prize for anyone who buys 45 cards (a cool $4,455): Dinner with Trump at Mar-A-Lago.

By the way, new polling out this week showed Trump doing terribly with voters. A Quinnipiac University poll found “the lowest favorability rating he’s received among registered voters since July 2015.” Those numbers: just 31 percent favorable and 59 percent unfavorable. A CNN poll found basically the same numbers. That CNN poll also showed that 62 percent of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents want the party to nominate someone else.

But hey, maybe this money can help him pay off some of his many, many legal bills.
