Florida Governor Ron DeSantis recently became the subject of an online memefest after a photo of him wearing white Go-Go Boots went viral on social media.
Reports suggest the photo was taken on October 5, 2022 when DeSantis visited Fort Myers to survey the damage caused by Hurricane Ian. In the image, the politician can be seen wearing jeans, a blue sleeveless jacket and a blue shirt with the now-infamous white boots.
As DeSantis’ picture surfaced online, several people pointed out the resemblance between his footwear and Nancy Sinatra’s iconic white Go-Go Boots. One Twitter user even jokingly said, "Nancy Sinatra called. She wants her boots back."
Those are hazmat boots.
Yuk! He’ll never live that one down.
It’s not fair, but that’s politics these days.
good point
He was touring hurricane damage.
I’m no fan of DeSantis, but I think something like this is really silly to focus on.
Petty.
Images are in many ways shallow ; but also important .
His people shouldn’t have let this happen
But that’s the game. Your opponents are looking for any excuse for ridicule, because it is the most potent weapon. You have to plan accordingly.
Agreed.
I’m 100% pro-Trump, but this is just silly.
Childish
That’s probably one of the reasons Trump always chooses to wear a suit, you can’t go wrong there. |
No doubt. Cause when he wears a sport shirt, his 215 315 pounds is kinda wrong.
“I’m no fan of DeSantis, but I think something like this is really silly to focus on.”
But, it gives MAGA something that makes them happy until embarrassment 2.O come November of next year.
Bayou boots
Stalecracker on YouTube wears them in his crawfish businesses
Feeds thousands of people with them too
No Self-Respecting Man would EVER be seen in White Boots like that!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
No woman would either.
he should have traded boots with the other guy.
more of a john kerry bunny suit moment
This is the same kind of thing that was done to Trump over and over. Non-supporters all over the political spectrum were trying to make a fool of him.
The white boots are common for commercial fishermen for visibility purposes. When my Dad was still commercial fishing he wore them for years.
