Conservative internet personality Adin Ross made headlines with former President Donald on his livestream, Trump garnered an audience of 500,000 viewers. During the broadcast, Ross presented Trump with two extravagant gifts: a customized Tesla Cybertruck and a golden Rolex.
Ross, a 23-year-old influencer, initially gained fame through his gaming videos and has since invited a series of controversial figures to his channel, including ex-kickboxer Andrew Tate and white nationalist Nick Fuentes. His provocative content led to a ban from the Twitch platform last year after several instances of homophobic remarks.
The Monday livestream, hosted on the platform Kick, featured Ross gifting Trump a Cybertruck with “Make America Great Again” engraved on the hood. The truck’s doors were adorned with an image of Trump raising his fist, taken after the recent assassination attempt against him. The presentation took place at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate.
According to The New York Times, Trump expressed his admiration for the gifts, calling the Cybertruck “incredible” and the Rolex “so nice” as he examined them inside the vehicle.
The estimated value of the custom Cybertruck and Rolex combined likely exceeds $100,000, far surpassing the legal limit for individual campaign contributions, which is capped at $3,300. Trump’s campaign spokesperson, Karoline Leavitt, informed the NYT that they plan to submit an advisory opinion to the Federal Election Commission (FEC) to seek guidance on how to manage the gifts.
