Trump hawks $399 branded shoes at ‘Sneaker Con,’ a day after a $355 million ruling against him

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — As he closes in on the Republican presidential nomination, former President Donald Trump made a highly unusual stop Saturday, hawking new Trump-branded sneakers at “Sneaker Con,” a gathering that bills itself as the “The Greatest Sneaker Show on Earth.”

Trump was met with loud boos as well as cheers at the Philadelphia Convention Center as he introduced what he called the first official Trump footwear.

The shoes, gold lame high tops with an American flag detail on the back, are being sold as “Never Surrender High-Tops” for $399 on a new website that also sells Trump-branded “Victory47” cologne and perfume for $99 a bottle. He’d be the 47th president if elected again.

Biden-Harris 2024 Communications Director Michael Tyler slammed the appearance, saying: “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.”

“Hopefully the sneakers work out.”

Posobiec had a post saying Trump’s high tops are sold out.

” $9000 “ I say great play ..... just my opinion.. I would hold em till election day, then put em up for grabs. Of course they would be a nice “family” heirloom also.

It's fitting. Philadelphia's famed Mummer's Parade theme song is "Oh, Dem Golden Slippers". Many of the participants paint high-tops with gold paint for their walk up Broad Street on New Year's Day.

Sounded to me what started with booing ended up with cheering. It’s called “working the crowd.”

I wish to hell you people would spend half the energy you do bashing Trump to actually fixing the problems in your own party. A good start would be Getting rid of Mitch Mcconnell.

“I cannot believe fools actually part with their hard earned money for this salesman.”

I can’t believe Soros bots actually waste their time on this forum. (But it’s your time, so go for it.)

DeSantis is out and the butthurt TDS clowns won’t pick up their deflated balls and find a nikki site to post their venom.

True blue Trump supporters are like fire ants. It just takes a little poke with a stick to send them into a raging fit.

Trump's an imperfect vessel, he's our line in the sand. It doesn't mean we have to genuflect before him.

He's the only reason why I'm voting this year, maybe for Cruz, too. I lost my rep, Beth Van Duyne to redistricting. I'm now in a 75% Democrat district. My available time and money now go to the True Texas Project.

“It doesn’t mean we have to genuflect before him.”

It also doesn’t mean we should not respond to liberal idiots trying to influence people not to vote for him.

It seems there are the anti-Trump liberals who think people supporting him “genuflect before him”. Total BS.
