Fox News host Raymond Arroyo is predicting that black voters will happily cast their ballots for failed one-term former president Donald Trump in November because he just released his own line of tennis shoes and black people “love sneakers.”
According to Newsweek, Arroyo remarked, “This is connecting with Black America because they love sneakers.”
“This a big deal, certainly in the inner city. So when you have Trump roll out his sneaker line, they’re like, ‘wait a minute, this is cool.’ He’s reaching them on a level that defies and is above politics. The culture always trumps politics. And Trump understands culture like no politician I’ve ever seen.”
Arroyo added, “Anybody willing to put 400 bucks down for a pair of sneakers? Yeah, I think that’s commitment and love. It’s something… it’s affection.”
The $399 per pair “Never Surrender High-Tops” are shiny gold and have an American flag on the back, along with a “T” for Trump. To call them gaudy would be an insult to the word gaudy. Trashy would be more accurate, but even that doesn’t do justice to how incredibly hideous the sneakers are.
But black people are gonna love them, according to Arroyo, who has probably never had a person of color as a friend since he was 2 years old.
Social media users took delight in destroying Arroyo for his blatantly bigoted comments.
