Clinton campaign sends out email blast for discounted Hillary merchandise
Hillary Clinton may have just lost the White House, but It’s never been more cost-effective to be #WithHer.
The presidential runner-up sent an email blast to supporters on Wednesday offering “deeply discounted” merchandise, ranging from $15 logo t-shirts to $2 “Deal us in” buttons.
The campaign hoped to tap into Republican party opposition, asking supporters: “Still fired up? Time to take the fight to Trump. Get deeply discounted items from the shop and help support Democrats.”
While it may seem like a clearance sale of sorts, quantities still seem to be limited. A week ago -- two days after Clinton’s election loss -- a Hillary for America official told TMZ that they were inundated with orders as collectors rushed to own a piece of the historical campaign.
And the reactions on Twitter echoed this, as supporters expressed their grief at Clinton’s fallen campaign:
I just got an email about all the Hillary Clinton merch on sale on her site and I'm just like 😩

Got an email advertising discounted @HillaryClinton "merch". What a sad way to start the morning. I'm picturing her having a huge yard sale

President-elect Donald Trump’s campaign took a different approach in their post-election email, boasting that their merch is in short supply.
With only 5,125 “MAGA” hats and 475 #BigLeague t-shirts left, Trump supporters should act now if they want to have the right garb come January’s inauguration.
