Adin Ross ‘gifts’ Trump a Rolex and Cybertruck wrapped in rally shooting photo during unhinged livestream
During a livestream from Mar-a-Lago, streamer Adin Ross gave Donald Trump a Rolex and a Tesla Cybertruck wrapped in a photograph of the former president taken moments after a gunman shot him at a rally in Pennsylvania last month.
Ross repeatedly stated that he was giving them to the former president as “gifts.” While it’s unclear if Trump actually accepted the offering, it could exceed the maximum $3,300 limit on presidential campaign contributions under federal campaign finance law.
The 23-year-old streamer — with a mostly young male audience of more than 1.4 million Kick followers and 4.4 million YouTube subscribers — wore a white “Make America Great Again” hat and red tie as he heaped praise on the former president, who largely rambled through familiar grievances and disconnected thoughts on immigration, crime, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and cryptocurrency.
During the 90-minute stream from inside Trump’s Florida compound, as a small group of supporters behind a velvet rope held up “never surrender” signs and cheered along, Ross gave Trump a Rolex — the first of two “gifts” he offered to the former president.
At the end of the stream, Ross walked Trump outside and showed him a Cybertruck wrapped in images of the American flag and a photograph of the former president raising his fist as Secret Service agents surrounded him after a gunman fired on Trump and a rally crowd in Pennsylvania last month.
“Wow. That’s an Elon,” Trump said, referencing Tesla CEO Elon Musk. “That is beautiful. I think it’s incredible.”
He then suggested that he believes Google manipulated images from the shooting to put smiles on the Secret Service agents’ faces.
“You heard about that? It’s just terrible. It’s a little bit scary,” he said.
