Donald Trump Costume for Halloween?
Republican Presidential nominee Donald Trump is proving to be so “huge” this Halloween season that costume manufacturers and retailers are having trouble keeping up with demand from revelers of all ages.
Rubie’s Costume Co., the world’s largest maker of Halloween costumes and accessories, has ramped up production at its factory in Mexico (which Trump has promised will pay for the wall he wants to put on the U.S. Southern border), of the two Trump masks it sells, according to Howard Beige, an executive with the company.
“I am definitely surprised by the demand,” said Beige, whose parents Rubin and Tillie founded Rubie’s in 1951. “We will be in production until the last few days before Halloween on these items. … At this point, we’re behind demand.”
