A U.K. sweets company is sticking it to President Donald Trump by selling lollipops in protest of his reinstatement of the anti-abortion policy known as the global gag rule.
But before you say, “Ew, I wouldn’t want Trump’s face near mine in ANY context,” consider this: Smith & Sinclair, the company selling the limited edition “Trump sucks” lollipops, says “all profits raised will go to the International Planned Parenthood Federation.”
Trump’s reinstatement of the Mexico City policy prohibits giving U.S. funding to nongovernmental organizations that offer or advise on a wide range of family planning and reproductive health options if they include abortion ― even if U.S. dollars are not specifically used for abortion-related services.
Smith & Sinclair want buyers to “take a moment with Trump that’s easier to stomach than any other” and the lollipops come in two flavors: butterscotch and sea salt, and strawberry and mint.
You can pre-order them online here for £5 ($6.25).
