Though president-hopeful Bernie Sanders opposes super PACS, a super pack of local artists took another route to raise cash for the Democratic candidate this winter.

Disillusioned by Donald Trump “spewing words of hate and division,” three self-employed Portland artists created a silk screen image of Trump wearing a cap that, instead of saying “Make America Great Again,” simply reads “Chump.”

Portland glass artist Brian Owoc plunked down $315 to start the project dubbed “Through the ignorance of some comes inspiration to others.” All proceeds of the $20 locally made tees are donated to Sanders’ presidential campaign.

Owoc, aka KGB Glass, and girlfriend, artist Sarah Mobsby, were inspired by a popular tee from a past political season made in Portland 10 years ago.
