Trump Loudly Booed While Hawking $399 ‘Never Surrender’ Sneakers At Event In Philly

Desperate for new sources of cash to help him pay the massive court-imposed fines against him for defamation and fraud, failed one-term former president Donald Trump has now launched his own line of sneakers that he’s trying to sell to his gullible minions for $399 a pair.

CNN reports Trump began hawking the tennis shoes at an event in Philadelphia on Saturday.

The former president unveiled “Trump Sneakers” at Sneaker Con in Philadelphia. He placed a pair of gold sneakers, which a new website has listed for $399 and named the “NEVER SURRENDER HIGH-TOP SNEAKER,” on the podium as he spoke.

“This is something I’ve been talking about for 12 years, 13 years, and I think it’s going to be a big success,” said Trump, who is marching closer toward the 2024 Republican nomination and a potential rematch with President Joe Biden.

If you listen to the audio on that clip, you can’t help but hear the sound of loud booing in response to what Trump is saying. Some who were in attendance even reported that the disgraced ex-president was “booed off the stage.”

In response to the boos, Trump remarked, “A lot of emotion. There’s a lot of emotion in this room. Thank you. The nice thing is… we have lines… I want to thank Chase and I want to thank Allen. But we have lines going all around the block.”

It didn’t take long before social media was alight with mockery.

Donald Trump And His Sons Could Soon Face Tax Charges From The IRS

Having been found guilty of bank and tax fraud and fined $355 million by New York Judge Arthur Engoron, things could be about to take an even nastier turn for failed one-term president Donald Trump and his two oldest sons, Don Jr. and Eric, according to a former prosecutor.

After Engoron’s ruling, according to NBC News, New York Attorney General Letitia James issued a statement.

“Donald Trump is finally facing accountability for his lying, cheating, and staggering fraud. Because no matter how big, rich, or powerful you think you are, no one is above the law,” James said in a statement, calling the ruling “a tremendous victory for this state, this nation, and for everyone who believes that we all must play by the same rules — even former presidents.”

The Friday ruling could also serve as the basis for new legal problems for Trump and the Trump Organization.

Legal analyst Catherine Christian told MSNBC host Ali Velshi that AG James has made it clear she will be passing along the findings that served as the basis for her case to the U.S. Department of Justice.

“If now the federal government, the Southern District of New York sort of passed on this publicly, but that does not mean that they can’t, as long as it’s within the statute of limitations take another look,” Christian explained.

“And clearly, the federal government, the Internal Revenue Service, they sort of never stop looking at you, and so yes, the AG’s office referred to it to other authorities, and it could be possible that each of the defendants, not just Donald Trump, his sons, [Allen] Weisselberg could be in legal jeopardy, even criminal jeopardy.”

If Donnie thought he had a bad day in court on Friday, just wait until the IRS starts seizing his bank accounts and properties to pay any taxes and penalties. By the time they’re finished with him, he won’t have a proverbial pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of.

Trump Whines About His Ongoing Legal Problems In Bizarre ‘Valentine’ To Melania

Ever the romantic, failed one-term, twice-impeached former president Donald Trump used the occasion of Valentine’s Day to whine about his ongoing legal problems and suggest that his supporters should send money to him as a way of honoring his wife, Melania.

The Trump campaign sent out a blast email Wednesday morning which featured as the subject line “I love you, Melania!” according to Mediaite.

Once opened, the email revealed a tender message of love and legal persecution:

THIS IS A VALENTINE’S DAY LETTER FROM DONALD J. TRUMP:

Thomas, this is a Valentine’s Day letter to my beautiful wife, Melania!

Dear Melania,

I LOVE YOU!

Even after every single INDICTMENT, ARREST, and WITCH HUNT, you never left my side.

You’ve always supported me through everything.

I wouldn’t be the man I am today without your guidance, kindness, and warmth.

You will always mean the world to me, Melania!

From your husband with love,

Donald J. Trump

Please leave some kind words for the First Lady this Valentine’s Day!

SEND YOUR LOVE
May God bless you,

Donald J. Trump

45th President of the United States

The email also contains repeated urgings for recipients to send $47 each. If you try to click off that message, another pops up that reads:

WAIT, BEFORE YOU GO!

No matter how many vicious lies and attacks they throw our way, President Trump will NEVER SURRENDER our great country to the Left’s tyranny! But the Democrats will spend billions and billions of dollars to try and stop our movement, and we’re counting on YOUR support to finish what we started.

Together, we will DISMANTLE the Deep State, WIN BACK the White House, and SAVE AMERICA in 2024! Please consider completing your contribution today. Thank you!

Need to feel the love? Here’s a video of the Valentine’s Day message from the disgraced, indicted loser ex-president.

Larry David Trolls Trump By Recreating His Georgia Mugshot On ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’

This is the last season of Larry David’s brilliant HBO comedy series “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” and the show is going out with a major bang based on the first episode which aired Sunday.

The episode, “Atlanta,” mocks new election laws in the state of Georgia which make it a crime for anyone to provide water to voters who are standing in line to cast a ballot in the Peach State.

According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution:

 “At the end of the episode, David was arrested for inadvertently breaking state law by providing water to a friend waiting in line to vote. ‘I was just being cordial!’ David screams as he’s dragged away.”

Executive producer Jeff Schaffer noted that the episode was shot in Atlanta around the same time disgraced former president Donald Trump was forced to show up for booking and a mugshot.

“Trump gets caught with one of his many hands in one of the many cookie jars, and I remember just walking in and I said to Larry, ‘This is crazy. You’re in Atlanta, he’s in Atlanta, you just got arrested. Let’s do this!’ We had to wait until the strike was over to even be able to shoot Larry looking like our former Oompa Loompa. So it came completely afterwards.”

Here’s David’s mugshot:

Rachel Maddow Has A Brutal Fact-Check For The Trump Faithful – And It’s Perfect

Even though he coasted to an easy 30-point win in the Iowa caucus on Monday evening, things are not all rainbows and unicorns for failed one-term, twice-impeached ex-president Donald Trump.

As MSNBC host Rachel Maddow noted while the results trickled in from the Hawkeye State, Donald is facing some major obstacles to winning a second term in office, and most of those can be found on the legal front.

Referencing a poll from Iowa that shows 63% of Republicans think Trump is fit to serve as president even if he’s convicted of a felony, Maddow explained that means there are still more than a third of GOP voters who believe Trump shouldn’t be returned to the White House if he’s convicted.

Maddow added:

“They’re going to nominate him nationwide?” Maddow asked incredulously. “When even a third of Iowa caucusgoers say, ‘No, he can’t be president if he’s convicted’?”

“I’m sorry. But he’s gonna be convicted.”

Legal analyst Ari Melber was quick to interject that while there’s “overwhelming evidence” in the four criminal cases Trump is facing, one can’t “say what’s going to happen” in those.

Maddow: “I can. He’s gonna be convicted.”

That prompted a torrent of comments on social media.
