'Hillary's Lies Matter' Pins and Other Bonkers Merchandise at the RNC

The merch section of the Republican National Convention is great—if you hate Hillary, love the idea of bombing ISIS, and prefer your accessories to contain sexist messages.

Are you looking for a "Hillary's Lies Matter" pin? A "Donald Fuckin' Trump" shirt? A hat with a gun on it? Well, you're in luck, because at the Republican National Convention, hoards of unofficial vendors are selling hats, T-shirts, and other elephant memorabilia.

Some booths offered offered the ubiquitous Make America Great America baseball caps, while others marketed to Republicans' baser desires. Two guys sold shirts that said, "Hillary Sucks but Not Like Monica" (the back read, "Trump That Bitch"), and many people hawked pins that said "BOMB THE SHIT OUT OF ISIS." Many of the sellers disagreed with the politics of their merchandise, but what's a better place to act like an unrepentant capitalist than at the Republican National Convention?
