Fox News host says Trump’s $399 gold sneakers will make Black people support him because ‘they love sneakers’ – DeadState
As Newsweek points out, the “Never Surrender High-Tops” are shiny gold high tops with an American flag on the back, and have since sold out on the website they were promoted on.
Two words Money Laundering
That’s four words
It could be more.
Wouldn't that be a pretty terrible way of laundering money though since inventory and sales are pretty easy to verify? Like how would one inject dirty money that would wouldn't be blantly obvious?
You overpay for a trash product not because you're willing to buy the product at that price, because you believe that is what it is worth, but because an investigator can't prove you were just doing it to transfer funds.
For another example, all these political talking heads pumping out a ghost written book no one will read that sell out immediately and make the best seller list because a PAC buys all the copies.
I don't think that's what's happening here though. A thousand sneakers at $400 isn't hard math, and while that's a lot of money on a personal level it's nothing to a man that just ate a $300 million fraud judgement.
Nice try FBI, but you’re not getting me to confess.
All kidding aside. Everything Trump does is the terrible way of doing things.
Yes, that sounds exactly like something a FOX(FAUX) News host would say.
It also sounds exactly like something a racist would say
Why are you repeating their comment?
The most depressing part is he legitimately might win.
And if he doesn't legitimately win, he will make damn sure he wins illegitimately.
Comically evil levels of racism.
Why isn't he marketing to us Jews? I want two-for-the-price-of-one pennies!
When I see how many of my relatives are actually considering voting for this monster, the question answers itself. I'm simply stunned seeing Jews defend a man who openly supports Hitler.
Well, the shoes are gold, so I think they were doing their best to appeal.
And, I’ve got a cousin who is amped for Trump and calls Musk a genius (I’m black, so it hurts even more).
Don't feel bad. Unless you're trump or ivanka, he has no loyalty, so anyone voting for trump is having the leopard eat their face.
That whole discussion... Just... Goddamn.
I 100% believe that they believe this
I thought this was an onion article..
Oh man, he sunk to Hilary level pandering
I have no dog in this fight but the sneakers don't look that bad.
They look like they got taken out of a time capsule from the 80's. I wouldn't have been surprised to see Kid and/or Play rocking something like that back in the day.
can a black person please tell me if this is true or not
Trump's republican party reminds of DC's Gotham universe.
Anyone who genuinely loves sneakers is gonna look at those tacky pieces of shit and pass immediately.
But sadly anyone who collects sneakers is gonna buy them for the lols.
I mean, yeah, if I I were into collecting sneakers and had the money, I'd totally do it for the meme.
Maybe auction them off once they sell out and donate the proceeds to some lgbt/minority/feminist org?
I mean, fuck it, most revenue he's going to make off of them was around half a mil anyway iirc.
These will hang on a power line soon enough
They look like gold shoes you can buy from China on Amazon

People said the same about Kanye's EVA foam marshmallows
