Just gonna take this opportunity to recommend Solovair, the original makers of Dr. Martens. Still around, still making excellent steel-toe boots, still great for kicking Nazis in the stomach and groin.
Trump leaned back in his chair and remarked: “You can tell a lot about a man by his shoe size.”
Like what? It's not like anyone has any influence over their shoe size. How dumb do you have to be to think that shoe size makes any difference in a person's life?
Shoe size does make a difference. Walk a mile in clown shoes and you'll know what it's like to be the sitting/always standing at weird angles president.
This just sounds like he purposely ordered his like 6 sizes bigger than everyone else's and is flopping about in some Sideshow Bob ass monstrosities just to try and convince everyone he has a big dick.
Oh good, my tax dollars going to this bullshit as well
I'm sure they were a donation from Florsheim. [Mostly I'm surprised Florsheim is still in business, as I don't think I've heard about them in years!]
I'm not certain how long, but it's been a very long time since I even heard this shoemaker's name. Boycotting will be so easy.
His voters would have bullied him
Trump is a material girl, in a material world.
We are at the buy random shit give it to the grandkids when they visit phase. Next week you will get a nice pen and pencil set.
So team USA women missed more than just Big Macs
Read the article and I have to say, while this is definitely just a puff piece, it's one of the most harmless, humanizing things I've read about Trump all year. This shouldn't have been an article in the first place but no one ought to be upset by it either
What?
One female White House official observed wryly: “All the boys have them.” Another added: “It’s hysterical because everybody’s afraid not to wear them.”
Edit: The more I think about this, the more I love it. All of the republicans are probably in ill-fitting shoes and very uncomfortable. Noice.
Hysterical. Don't want to upset dear leader
It's probably somehow a dick move on his part, like flood the zone is for the media. If the republicans are uncomfortable, they're less likely to talk back, maybe?
Unless, of course, hidden in the souls of every shoe is government secrets.
Shoes don't have souls. That's fine because neither do these guys, they already sold them.
