    “These are the new AIR TREASONS. They magically massage your bone spurs to where you don’t even feel them”

    “They are perfect for running away from military service, which is for suckers and losers.”

    “The perfect shoe for marching down Pennsylvania Avenue to undermine The Constitution”

    “Each AIR TREASON is hand made in China— but all proceeds go to Russia” 🇷🇺

    “The shoe of choice for elite athletes with tremendous bodies like Steve Bannon, Ted Cruz and yours truly”

    Can we stop referring to him as “former president” and start referring to him as “current shoe salesman”?

      He never scored the winning touchdown at Polk high, did he? So he’s just a grifting insurrectionist rapist in my opinion.

    ‘In a statement obtained by PEOPLE, Biden-Harris 2024 Communications Director Michael Tyler reacted to Trump’s promotional appearance over the weekend, stating, “Donald Trump showing up to hawk bootleg Off-Whites is the closest he’ll get to any Air Force Ones ever again for the rest of his life.”’

    Same energy as McDonald’s asking you to round up money so they can fund their tax write off charity.

      You write off income, if you give them an extra 30c in income and they donate 30c, they break even.

    Among the items Trump was promoting were shoes known as the “T-Red Wave” and the “POTUS 45,” which are both priced at $199 and feature a “T” and the number 45 on the sides.

    A pair of gold footwear deemed the “Never Surrender High Top Sneaker," which similarly feature a “T” on each shoe, meanwhile, was priced at $399 and is currently sold out.

    The purchase of a pair of sneakers — which are not tied to Trump’s presidential campaign or the Trump Organization, given that his name, image and likeness have been licensed to CIC Ventures LLC — comes with extra laces and a Trump “superhero charm." The website is also selling a “Victory47” perfume and cologne for $99 each.

    The best suckers, folks.

    He probably doesn’t even intend to use this money to pay anything back. He will appeal and delay forever. This is just another opportunity to syphon his supporters money

      I read somewhere that in order to appeal he has to put all of the money up and then some.

        Or just get someone to post a bond. Then it’s only 10% out of pocket. And I would bet he tried to write off these losses on his taxes since IRS has come out and said they will not be looking.

          Who would be foolish enough to issue him a bond at this point? Kiss that money goodbye 👋

              I guess I just don’t see a feasible way this could happen with the regulatory scrutiny he is under right now.

                How about the country that wants influence over him simply buys all the stupid shoes? The shoes could be shipped right to the landfill and Trump would walk away with his bond money.

                There’s still been no repercussions from even more obvious influence examples like guests getting expensive suites at the Old Post office that became the Trump hotel while he was in office, and coincidentally stopped being a Trump hotel in 2022.

    Maybe they weren’t booing. Maybe they were just shouting “LOSER.”

      No that makes sense. They thinned his face a bit in that headshot using aurbrushing probably and Biden is a thinner dude.

    This is something that I’ve been talking about for 12 years minutes, 13 years minutes, and I think it’s gonna be a big success," Trump said
