President Donald Trump delivered a rambling anecdote about how “the head of Sharpie” offered him customized pens—but the company said that never happened.
Trump, 79, took five minutes out of his Cabinet meeting on Thursday to brag about how he got custom-made Sharpies and saved American taxpayers thousands of dollars in the process.
“So I came here, and they have $1,000 pens. And, you know, you hand pens out, you’re signing, and you hand them out. You’re handing them to all these people. Sometimes you have 30, 40 people, and they are $1,000 a piece,” Trump complained. “Beautiful pen, ballpoint, $1,000. It was gold, silver, gorgeous. But I’m handing [them] out to kids that don’t even know what they are.”
