After inviting internet celebrity Adin Ross for a live interview, Trump not only received a Tesla Cybertruck and a Rolex watch that the latter had criticized earlier but also may have violated the campaign finance law.
Trump’s campaign has sought legal advises from the Federal Election Commission as to how to deal with the gifts.
23 year old gamer streamer Ross unknowningly played and streamed a video game with homophobic slurs and racist insults for which he has received a ban on twitch.
He since transitioned to Kick, a Twitch rival, to host his streams.
The president showed admiration for the Tesla Cybertruck and the Rolex could be in violation of campaign laws.
However, Tesla Cybertrucks can cost as low as $60,000, depending on the model, and as high as $100,000 if you add the trimmings on top of it; Rolex watches, on the other hand, begin from $5,000.
Trump’s campaign recently aimed at young male voters and did everything to enlist the support of an eccentric personality like Ross.
Trump has appeared with other loosely-filtered personalities who boast a large inherently largely Gen Z male viewership including Jake Paul, pro wrestler Logan, and vice-presidential candidate JD Vance.
The twin internet personalities have a huge following, and Trump informed Ross that he knew that the young people are generally Democrats.
