特朗普20日將舉辦就職典禮，隨著其就任日期的臨近，美國商家再次抓住商機，希望從這位新總統的支持者和反對者身上大賺一筆。有商家推出了昂貴的特朗普就職紀念徽章，也有商家為了迎合特朗普的反對者售賣惡搞他的創意禮品。甚至還有商家推出了特朗普味兒香薰，稱其“融合了所有經典香味”。

There are Donald Trump-shaped cookie cutters, "Drain the swamp" sweatshirts, and candles meant to smell like the president elect - a combination of "all of the classiest smells," according to the product's description. Keep searching among the Trump-inspired flasks, paperweights and peppermints, and you'll find coffee mugs that say "Build that wall" and a penny stamped with "Trump" selling for $2.75.
商店中出售的有特朗普人形餅干模具、“徹底清理門戶”口號運動衫以及特朗普味蠟燭，其產品描述稱該味道“融合了所有經典香味”。如果你接著搜羅，還會發現特朗普保溫杯、壓紙器、薄荷糖、寫著“建高墻”的咖啡杯以及印有“特朗普”字樣的1便士硬幣，這種硬幣單價為2.75美元。

Online shops, street vendors and high-end boutiques around town are preparing for Friday's inauguration with equal parts sincerity and snark as they try to cash in on fans and foes of the next president.
電商、街頭小販以及高端精品店為20號的就職典禮做了兩全準備，試圖在下任總統的支持者和反對者身上大賺一筆。

At Chocolate Mooose, a novelty gift shop a half-mile from the White House, shelves are lined with Donald Trump whoopee cushions and chocolate replicas of the US Capitol. The Donald Trump mask, a Halloween favorite, is back in stock.
距離白宮半英里的Chocolate Mooose是一間創意禮品店，店內貨架上擺放著特朗普放屁坐墊以及美國國會大廈的巧克力模型。萬圣節時最流行的特朗普面具也補上貨了。

"Up to now, absolutely, it's been all about the gag stuff," said Michele Cosby, the store's owner.
老板米歇爾?科斯比說，“到目前為止，店內出售的都是一些搞笑商品。”

The best-selling item so far? Toilet paper emblazoned with Trump's face. "We sold cases upon cases of it," Cosby said. "And at $12 a roll, it wasn't cheap." (But, she added, she has since stopped selling the popular item: "Now that he's our president-elect, we didn't want to cross the line.")
目前最暢銷的是什么？答案是印有特朗普表情的衛生紙。科斯比表示，“我們賣出了很多盒，每卷12美元，不便宜呢。”（不過，科斯比說他們現在已經不賣這種紙了，“因為現在特朗普已經是美國候任總統，而我們不想過線”。）

At the Great Republic, which has inauguration pop-up shops at the St. Regis and Mandarin Oriental hotels, revelers can pick up pens made of wood from the White House and hand-painted with portraits of the president-elect for $1,950 each.
圣瑞吉斯酒店和東方文華酒店里有“偉大的共和國”就職典禮游擊商店，狂歡者可以在此選購用白宮木材制作的筆以及售價1950美元的特朗普手繪肖像。

Over in Georgetown, local jeweler Ann Hand has sold nearly 1,000 inaugural pins bearing Donald Trump's name and a slew of pavé stones. She is also selling inaugural cuff links, charm bracelets and a limited number of mother-of-pearl pins with Swarovsky crystals for $250.
在喬治敦，當地珠寶商安?漢德已賣出了近1000個刻有特朗普名字的徽章和一系列密鑲寶石。她還售賣特朗普就職版袖扣、精致手鐲以及鑲嵌施華洛世奇水晶的限量版珍珠母徽章，其售價為250美元。

"We were astounded by the reaction that we got," Hand said. "All these inaugurals seem to take on a life of their own - there are those who love their candidate and those who don't."
漢德說，“顧客的反響讓我們大吃一驚。所有總統就職周邊似乎擁有了生命——有的是熱愛他們的候選人的，而有的則并非如此。”

Jim Warlick, owner of White House Gifts, says he spent months buying $100,000 worth of items for the inauguration. There was just one problem: He had projected the wrong winner.
白宮禮品店老板吉米?沃利克說，他花了幾個月時間買入了價值10萬美元的總統就職周邊產品。唯一的問題是：他預測錯了贏家（他買的是希拉里的周邊產品）。
