Former President Donald Trump pushed $100,000 watches on the same day his wife Melania Trump told Fox News people are struggling to afford basic necessities.

Trump posted to Truth Social on Thursday his latest product which is the Official Trump Watch Collection, which consists of 147 gold watches that each have Trump’s name on them. The limited collection runs for $100,000 a pop.

“You’re going to love them. Would make a great Christmas Gift. Don’t wait, they will go fast,” the former president wrote.

On the same morning, Melania Trump appeared on Fox & Friends to promote her new memoir. Speaking with Ainsley Earhardt about Vice President Kamala Harris replacing President Joe Biden at the top of the Democratic Party ticket, Melania Trump said people are not able to buy “usual necessities” due to high inflation and her husband was “great for the country.”

“How I see it is, the record speaks for itself. The country is suffering. People are not able to buy the usual necessities for their families,” Melania Trump said. “We have wars going on around the world. Soldiers are dying. They were dying under this administration because of weak leadership. The border is open and dangerous.”

She added that people were “prospering” more under her husband’s administration and argued that everything is “great” when it comes to Donald Trump, but that you’ll have to accept some “strong tweets.”

“I think the American people need to decide what they really want. Maybe some strong tweets, but everything else great for this country,” she said. “So it’s all in the American people’s hands on November 5.”
