MUMBAI: In a stroke of marketing genius, an Assam based tea company has sent 6000 tea bags to Republican Presidential candidate Donald Trump with the message that it’s never too late to ‘cleanse yourself.’
In a video (included below), Kolkata-based Te-A-Me Teas has a clear message for Mr. Trump: “Dear Mr Trump, namaste from India, we are sending you lots and lots of natural green tea. It fights against harmful free radicals. It helps purify mind and body and regain a healthy balance. It has also proven to make people smarter. Please Mr Trump drink the tea. For your sake, for America’s sake, for the world’s sake.”
“The message is simple: Mr Trump, it’s never too late to cleanse yourself,” the company said yesterday, a day after its representatives delivered a consignment of some 6,000 green tea bags to the Trump Towers in New York.
A video by the company details all of the above:
“Donald Trump has the whole world worried… we can’t stop him, but maybe we can change him,” the video says.
Sumit Shah, Managing Director of the company told the Indian Express that “We believe that green tea with all its goodness can help Mr Trump and in turn benefit his country and the world at large” and added that the consignment of tea bags is based on the presumption that the Trump would drink three cups a day.
“If he needs more, we’ll be happy to provide. Green tea has been proven to fight against harmful free radicals and cleanse the mind and bodies, helping one regain a healthy balance,” Shah said.
Now we think the company needs to send our own politicos some tea, no?
