Former President Trump's high-top sneakers sold out hours after their launch Saturday at Sneaker Con in Philadelphia.

And she has nothing to do with being President except for being Mrs. Trump and a beautiful terrific First Lady.

Yea you’re right. We shoulf keep pumping money into the hands of those who would see him die in prison.
It’s like the idiots who demand “green” tanks. So many on “our side” still to recognize the threat. No willing to fight the war. They’ll see us all enslaved if it were up to them.
That you don’t see the connection is ehat makes your thinking dated. You’ll thank us all if we manage to save the country and You’ll regret that your thinking won the day if we don’t.
I only see one malcontent whining.
Just like Jebby, Christy didn’t make the cut and Nikki is losing against “none of the above.”
You are in love with losers but at least you got Creepy Joe representing your values.
Adios, Troll.
It was bad enough when he sold EFT “trading cards”, but now Trump Sneakers?
........
they will be popular in the hood.
That’s the best you got? What a loser.
So let me get this straight. It's your position that anyone who in any way even slightly questions Trump's actions is automatically a Never-Trumper and a Biden lover?
I support Trump and have done since early on in the Primaries in 2016.
However, I do not support what Trump did with his executive order banning bump stocks after the Las Vegas false flag operation shooting. Not a single pro-2A group agreed with Trump's actions in banning bump stocks, and several cases to overturn the AFT ban are working their way through the courts.
So by your standards all of those pro-2A groups are now Never-Trumpers?
Interesting.
I hope you're right and even more so that such popularity turns into Trump votes from the black community.
If that happens, then I'll admit I am wrong.
You will never be lost in the crowd wearing those kicks.
Wonder who designed the attention getters?
You're not alone. On top of it all, they look like ghetto shoes.
“Trump Sneakers are not designed, manufactured, distributed or sold by Donald J. Trump, The Trump Organization or any of their respective affiliates or principals.”
For all the nervous Nellie’s out there. Trump sold them for $399. The market says they’re worth more:

TELL US ALL HOW YOU WOULD PAY YOUR LAWYERS IF YOU WERE IN TRUMP’S SHOES.
It appears they were made in Chine. Someone posted a photo of the tag on Twitter.
Why couldn't Trump have reached out to New Balance for American-made sneakers? NB has five factories in the United States making shoes and NB's CEO is a Trump supporter and donated to his previous campaigns.
For what it's worth, Trump's famous MAGA ballcap (the official one) is made in California.
The question to you is Why WOULDN’T he do this?
50 years ago, sure, it may seem unPresidentail...but this is 2024. The deep state is doing everything they can to destroy this man.
He fights back and to me, that is VERY Presidential.
I’ll do my best to educate a FReeper bro.
Politics is downstream of culture.
Trump arrested and booked: street cred. Shared experience. PR. “One of us.” Expands the base.
Trump shoes: what people have their own shoes? Celebrities, top athletes. Also great American branding. Expands base. Big waves in a sub culture that would ordinarily vote democrat.
NTF: same strategy. Young culture and voters, happening area.
All of these are cultural events that make huge waves in communities that expand the base.
Politics is downstream of culture.
