Another shameless grift that won't work, or, Donald Trump should've paid attention to LaVar Ball..........

 Donald Trump is on the hook for nearly $450 million in New York, can't really conduct business there for three years, per a judge's decision on Friday. So what does he do?

The Annoying Orange showed up at a sneaker convention in Philadelphia on Saturday to shill his own brand of shoes.

SAY WHAT??

Unlike, say for example, Patrick Mahomes, I'm not a sneakerhead, so I wouldn't have known about Sneaker Con until the headlines started appearing yesterday. However, that's where the Archduke of Affluenza was on Saturday, in addition to a campaign stop in Michigan where he did his usual whining & crying about his legal & political ills.

To his credit, Trump is only charging $400 a pair, as opposed to the infamous Big Baller shoes hawked by LaVar Ball a few years ago for $500 a pair. Still overpriced, and, as I've read, they only look special, but they look like another brand's shoes being repainted, branded, & priced. Seems Trump is resorting to another grift to pay his legal bills because he refuses to pay out of his own pocket.

It was the topic of discussion on MSNBC:


I've this feeling that, like Big Baller, Trump Sneakers will tank. Every other Trump brand died, so why not?
