Maybe this IS how Donald Trump will pay off his judgments?
The guy HAS a loyal following of suckers….
And Donald Trump HAS ways to get their money….
He’s always been able to hustle his ‘Brand’…
But they come with a disclaimer……
Former President Trump‘s high-top sneakers sold out hours after their launch Saturday at Sneaker Con in Philadelphia.
The big picture: The shoes, called “The Never Surrender High-Top Sneaker,” sell for $399. The pair, along with two low-top sneakers, and a $99 bottle of “Victory47” perfume and cologne were available for purchase on a new website.
What he’s saying: “I just want to tell you, I’ve wanted to do this for a long time,” Trump said Saturday when unveiling the sneaker line.
- “I have some incredible people that work with me on things, and they came up with this, and this is something I’ve been talking about for 12 years, 13 years, and I think it’s gonna be a big success,” he said.
Zoom in: Only 1,000 pairs of the gold shoes were available, per the sneaker website, which described the sneakers as “Super Limited.”….
