Calling Trump’s sneakers a “big deal” in the “inner city,” Raymond Arroyo leaned into racial stereotypes about Black people to suggest they will go MAGA in 2024.
Now I'm no political expert, but "black people will actively vote the Nazis back into power because they want sneakers" just doesn't quite sound accurate to me... Maybe I'm missing something here?
Can you be sure though? We really just don't know how WW2 would have turned out had Adolf rolled out a line of slick high-top basketball shoes.
It would have been economical too, as after killing the wearers he could regift them.
In all seriousness, there's something darkly hilarious to the notion of a bunch of racists trying to take over the country ending up foiled by the inaccuracy of their own dearly held stereotypes.
I mean at this point in the timeline I wouldn't be surprised if this actually happens. Not because of racism, but because humans in general always do the stupidest possible thing at any given opportunity.
Bet a dollar that the campaign bought all the stupid shoes. Watch for them being handed out a donor events. Nifty little way to have the campaign pay his legal fees.
Yeah some sort of shenanigans like that would not surprise me, especially because the shoes don’t even exist. The fine print claims they might ship in July lol.
That's not how money laundering works. Russia buys the shoes through a shell company and then donates them to the campaign for their actual value of almost $0. Then the campaign hands them out and trump gets the Russia money.
This is nothing new. A lot of "political " books end up on best seller list because PACs pre-order them in bulk then give them out to donors. About twenty years ago the NYT started putting an asterisk Next to books on their best seller list that got there using this method
Jesus man, these folks are addicted to lying. They adore their dear leader's lies, and must perpetuate lies amongst each other (and to themselves) to maintain the faux reality.
This part of history will be called "the dark ages of politics" or something similar...
You’ve lost Fox News viewers at “(not all, obviously)”. Nuance isn’t allowed, people can’t be varied and have different interests within a particular group. All sneakers are the same, so Trump shoes equal grandpa’s New Balance shoes equals shoes from the latest brand collaboration with a celebrity that isn’t Trump.
