Fox News Host: Blacks Will Vote For Trump Because They ‘Love Sneakers’

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.

Joe Biden’s Hilariously Profane Term For Trump’s Speeches Has The Internet Cheering

One of the things people say they love most about President Joe Biden is his brutal honesty when it comes to speaking his mind on issues that he considers to be of greatest importance.

Biden is also known to let loose with some salty language from time to time, and his thoughts on the things failed former president Donald Trump says in his campaign speeches have indeed led him to reach into his bag of profane language, according to HuffPost.

CNN White House correspondent MJ Lee appeared on air Tuesday to discuss how Biden has directed his campaign staff to deal with the Trump campaign.

The key is to apparently let Trump be Trump.

Lee said that Biden has asked senior campaign aides to highlight the “crazy shit” that Trump says in public, according to sources Lee spoke to for a CNN story published Tuesday.

Some examples Lee cited in her piece include Trump’s recent suggestion that he would “encourage” Russia to “do whatever the hell they want” to other NATO members and his attacks on Nikki Haley’s husband, who is currently on military duty.

As Lee explained to CNN host Brianna Keilar:

“What we’ve learned is that President Biden himself personally instructed some of his top campaign aides to be even more aggressive in highlighting some of [former] President Trump’s more inflammatory and wild comments. We’re told that the thrust of the president’s direction was to significantly ramp up the campaign’s efforts to highlight the ‘crazy shit that Trump says in public.’”

Twitter/X users who saw the video were delighted, both by Biden’s strategy and the fact that CNN had the guts to say “crazy shit” out loud.

Mike Johnson Accidentally Trolls Himself And Trump With An Obsequious Online Photo

In a desperate and self-serving attempt to prove his devotion to failed one-term former president Donald Trump, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) posted a photo and message on President’s Day that quickly came back to bite him and the Donald right on their asses.

The posting was made on Twitter/X, which has become a haven for right-wing extremists since it was purchased by Elon Musk in 2022.

Be sure and notice that the photo Johnson shared features him with Trump and both of them are standing beneath an exit sign, which is appropriate when you consider that both of them need to be kicked to the curb in November.

The irony of Johnson’s photo wasn’t lost those who saw it.

GOP ‘Circling The Drain’ As Biden Impeachment Crashes And Burns: Former Prosecutor

The Thursday indictment of an FBI source by the U.S. Department of Justice who provided House Republicans with information used as part of an ongoing impeachment inquiry of President Joe Biden not only means that impeachment is now off the table, but it also signals that Republicans are “circling the drain” as the 2024 election draws closer, according to former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner.

Kirschner was a guest on MSNBC Friday morning, and he labeled House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) and his cohorts in the GOP as “irretrievably incompetent.”

Alexander Smirnov was hit with two counts of allegedly giving the FBI false information about the president and his son, Hunter Biden, during the 2020 presidential campaign, which led Kirschner to note, “Any time you’re dealing with a source, the three most important words are corroboration, corroboration, and corroboration. The fact that the Republicans would rely on somebody like this, who has now been criminally indicted for providing false information about Hunter Biden and potentially, by extension, President Biden, the fact that Republican members of Congress would rely on this raises the question, you know, are they sort of irretrievably incompetent, or do they just turn a blind eye to the credibility of the evidence that they’re using in what is one of the most consequential moves: an impeachment hearing against a president of the United States.”

Kirschner added, “You know, it just shows that the Republican Party, or at least certain factions, continue to circle the drain. You have to wonder, is there anybody in the Republican Party that’s willing to do the hard work of pulling them out from this nosedive?”

“This is beyond embarrassing, it is just not governance. It is, you know, inexcusable”

The Republican Party cannot govern. They’re too busy trying to create smokescreens in a desperate attempt to distract from the 91 felony counts their likely presidential nominee, Donald Trump, is facing. And now their subservience to the Donald is coming back to bite them squarely on the ass.

Trump Goes On Fact-Free Rant During Appearance At Hush Money Trial: ‘Even If Guilty There Is No Crime!’

Failed one-term twice-impeached former president Donald Trump made an appearance at a Manhattan courthouse this morning where he’s on trial for falsifying records and committing financial fraud to hide his payment of hush money to Stormy Daniels, and it didn’t take long before the disgraced ex-head of state began spewing easily discredited lies and conspiracy theories.

The case, which was brought by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, is one of many legal landmines facing Trump as he tries to become the 2024 Republican presidential nominee.

According to Trump, “We’re here for something that is not a crime! Nobody’s ever seen anything like what it is, it is election interference being run by Joe Biden’s White House! His top person was placed here… This is a terrible time for our country. This is a real dark period for our country.”

He then added:

“Virtually every legal scholar says they don’t understand that there’s no crime even if he was guilty of something, there’s no crime! So, I will say that enjoy it. It’s a sad thing. It’s a sad day for New York.”

Despite Trump’s angry protestations, the trial will move forward on March 25, Judge Juan Merchan ruled, according to CNN:

A judge ruled former President and GOP front runner Donald Trump will face his first criminal trial with jury selection on March 25 in New York.

This comes after Judge Juan Merchan denied Trump’s motion to dismiss the charges against him in the criminal hush money case Thursday.

The decision comes as other criminal charges against Trump in other states have yet to be scheduled, as they are going through with pre-trial motions and being challenged in court.

The trial will come in the middle of the ramp up to the general election. 

Trump is also facing charges in federal court for illegally possessing classified documents and insurrection against the United States government for his role in the January 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol and efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election, which was won in a landslide by President Joe Biden.
