Trump shirts sell for about $40.00.
As a business man I would do the same as Trump if I could make the same margin selling the same shirt for $40.00. (DOn't care about labor cost. I am in business, remember).
Not surprised Clinton would associate herself with a maker of shirts that only the elite can afford.

What, a classic captitalist like yourself doesn't know about economies of scale? Here's a lesson for you: The more you make, the less each piece costs.
Here's a luxury American shirt company I never heard of that sells X numbers of shirts at $100 each. Make a deal with Trump to put his name on it and use the many, many retail outlets that sell his shirt line, and this company starts making 50X numbers of shirts. That price is going to go down, down, down.
I remember years ago reading about a high end phonograph cartridge, (yes, they still make them even today), that was selling for $1,000. The manufacturer got bought out by a much larger high end company, they sold many more of them at $300. This is not unusual-economies of scale drives prices down precipitously, if the market demands more.
