Yes, $400 gold-colored crap shoes. I guess this is how he's going to pay off that $350 million judgement he got nailed with yesterday.

Good grief.....the grift never ends.

The sad part is that if every Trump supporter donated a mere $10, that $350 million target would be hit and then some .

Maybe a few aggressive resellers will hold onto a pair to try to flip later. Regardless of politics, rarity and premiums may be worthwhile.

This is actually a very low-risk attempt on his end for some marketing and making some money at potentially very efficient profit.

But lmao @ the possibility that Trump supporters may treat this as a gateway into sneaker collecting and pay for this shit.

Does Slug Virus still think we're in the age of Disco?

Edit-Maybe this isn't as stupid as I thought. Most of the Slug Virus egocult is Boomers who grew up with shit like this and would pay a pretty penny to go back to the good old days. He truly is an idiot savant who can self promote like no other.

Guess it's currently unknown for now.

Donald Trump has not stated where the sneakers are made specifically, although is a known advocate for returning manufacturing to the United States.

No one knows, at least not that I could find.

On the purchasing website, the images of these shoes are an AI computer generated mockup and have yet to be manufactured.

They're not currently real.

That alone already suggests his latest cash grift to be a somewhat shady scam.

No.

They'll receive something eventually.

No promises on what they will look like though.

It says right on the grift site that this "style may differ from the product".

Floating rumors are that they will be $3 Temu (from China) shoes with a T superglued on them. *lol*
