US EditionTrump Store in Suburban Philadelphia 'Kind of Run Its Course' and Is Set to Close
Owner cites declining sales since Trump’s return to the White House and lease expiration as reasons for closing after six years in business.
- After six years in a Bucks County strip mall, the Trump Store in Bensalem will close on Jan. 31, co-owner Mike Domanico announced.
- Citing falling sales, Domanico said sales declined since Trump returned to the White House, and with the store's lease expiring in February, he will focus on a booming gun-show merchandise business.
- Founded as a kiosk in November 2019, the business sold novelty merchandise like Eagles shirts and Trump 2028 gear, employed two full-time employees, and stayed open during COVID by selling face masks.
- Coming after Democrats swept countywide races, the store as a magnet for die-hard supporters closed amid gloating Facebook comments from apparent Trump skeptics that owner Domanico no longer answers.
- As a bellwether county, Bucks County's narrow 2024 win for President Donald Trump highlights local political stakes, with sales rising during indictments and slowing after his second impeachment.
