Has a sitting president ever run an online store selling stuff?
Campaign web sites often sell merch. But the money belongs to the campaign, not the individual. And it's treated as a donation by the FEC, so you can't use it to get around campaign finance limits.

I recall that there was a lot of complaining that Obama made a fair bit of money on book sales while in office.

Made in America?

I don't think so.
