    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

      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?

            Electing Trump does not qualify as “starting fresh” though.

              That would be the burning the country down part, I guess.

                There’s a difference between burning something down and handing control (back) over to a kleptocrat.

                  Genocidal country has choice between genocidal kleptocrat and genocidal Zionist.

        Biden is a flip flopping coward, but I fail to see how electing him would be “more depressing” than wannabe Hitler.

        I think we’re all pretty bummed that we “have to” vote for Biden. He sucks. He’s also the candidate of a party in a 2 party system. We have no choice. It is a shitty system. I’m confident that in a more democratic system of representation (abolish the electoral college, implement ranked-choice voting, etc) we would all spend considerably more time talking about “the best” candidates that match our views most closely, but unfortunately in this country there’s really not much point.

    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).

        You’re not wrong. I can’t help but imagine myself singing “If I Were a Rich Man” in those shoes.

        Just like I assume you can’t stop wanting to watch The Wiz while wearing them. Or, you know, whatever is Fiddler on the Roof for black people.

        In case it needs to be said: sooooooooo much /s

      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.

        Look, I’m all for people feeding their faces to leopards. The problem is that they leave their freaking front door open and then their leopard starts eating everyone’s face in the neighborhood. Some people just aren’t happy until the leopards have nothing left to feed on.
