Jared Kushner: ‘MAGA’ hats made Trump $80,000 per day in 2016

Jared Kushner writes in his forthcoming memoir that the famous red “Make America Great Again” hats earned the Republican’s 2016 campaign up to $80,000 per day — covering the bulk of expenses after an initial order of just 100.

“Back in the summer [of 2015], I was walking through Trump’s corporate office in Trump Tower when I passed by the desk of Amanda Miller, head of marketing and communications for the Trump Organization,” Kushner writes in “Breaking History,” due out Aug. 23. “I noticed a wide-brimmed, old-school red baseball hat with four words in bold white lettering: MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN.

“‘Amanda said that Trump had called her to his office and designed the hat himself and asked her to order a thousand,” former first daughter Ivanka Trump’s husband goes on. “She’d ordered a hundred, thinking he’d never know the difference.”

Not long after, Kushner recalls, “Trump wore the hat on his visit to the southern border, and it became the hottest thing on the internet. The demand was so incredible that I worked with Amanda to create an online store, where we started selling roughly $8,000 in hats per day.”
