January was a landmark month for grifting, with high-profile con men launching cryptocurrencies and seizing treasuries all over the place. In fact, the shyster landscape has shifted so quickly that it’s already made our December Grift Guide look out of date!
Essential oils??! That’s so Bidencore.
With Valentine’s Day fast approaching, we feel compelled to recommend a new batch of grifts for potential fraudsters in love, because let’s face it: it’s a swindler’s world, and we’re all just scheming in it. So if you can’t beat them, grift them!
Grift for Him
Is the man in your life full of obnoxiously bad opinions? Are you constantly worried about the embarrassing things he says? This Valentine’s Day, you can solve those problems by nominating him for a cabinet position. The simple gift of a powerful government position that he’s uniquely unfit for comes with a free trip to Washington D.C., where the Senate will officially declare that his controversial past doesn’t bother America. Romantic!
