We've touched on some of the bizarre promotional products that President Trump has produced in the past (like dog accessories), mixed in with some of his more normal swag (like hats and shirts). His most recent store addition, however, is a promotional item that shows he's tapped into the zeitgeist; it's a set of eco-friendly reusable straws.

1. Trump promotes recyclable straws.
2. Eco-friendly products showcase sustainability.
3. Customisable reusable products appeal to eco-conscious consumers.

Eco-Friendly Trump Promotional Product?

Now it might seem a little odd that Trump would be pushing a set of straws labeled both reusable and recyclable, given his stance on environmental protection is straight out of the 12th century. But it turns out that there may be shared ground between POTUS and his opposition, as Trump's supporters are avidly purchasing these newly available straws. Not only are the official Trump-branded straws able to be recycled, but they're also BPA-free and come with laser-etched branding of his name (a name well known from his failed real estate ventures, his failed university, and his appalling steaks). So why are these promotional straws selling like hotcakes?

It turns out that a lot of Americans are frustrated by paper straws (a popular single-use alternative to disposable plastic straws). Rather than pushing the message that his straws are better for the environment than the disposable plastic straws, Trump's marketing team has instead opted for the angle that Trump's logo-branded straws are superior to the "liberal" paper straws commonly in use across the country. While left-leaning voters aren't more likely to use disposable paper straws than we know of if there's one thing Trump supporters love more than red caps, it's a fight against the perceived establishment. As of this writing, the Trump straws have sold almost half a million dollars worth of product for the president.

Regardless of your opinion on Trump and his divisive politics, the launch of his custom-branded straw is the latest in a long line of personalised reusable straws entering the market. Here at Cubic Promote, we sell customised metal straws, folding metal straws, reusable silicone straws, and custom paper straw sets all of which are popular options for large events and expos. Reusable straws are becoming a true alternative to the disposable plastic options we used to see all over the place, which Trump's straws illustrate perfectly.
