Good thing he launched a sneaker line today, that'll really turn things around.
Oh that's real! I thought it was an AI image or something.
That's fair, everything about the story seems AI generated.

I love that it was announced at Sneaker Con. The writers for our reality are just messing with us now.
Ah fuck. That's the kicker. I was always off the opinion that we lived in a simulation. Now, I'm thinking we're living in a reality written by AI inside a simulation.
I think the most likely thing given how dumb a lot of the writing is for this reality is that this reality was made as a cheap corporate knockoff of some other handmade reality. It is the only thing that explains both the potential evident in the beauty of our reality and the maddening lack of fulfillment of it in favor of (unbelievably) dumb shit happening over and over again.
Strange you call that a storm. That's a press release for marketing purposes. The media are falling into the same trap as before. Clicks for them equals incomez so all the crazy and stupid stuff trump does that can be monitored, is.
Anyone remember press conferences from trump hotels? Not to mention events, conferences, NFTs etc. It's all a con and we and they need to stop giving it air.

This man (and whoever he works with) does not have an ounce of creativity in his entire body.
"Never Surrender "
Wasn't that Desantis's tag line before he...well.. surrendered?
It was also Trump's tagline sold on T-shirts under the mugshot shot picture that was taken when he surrendered to the police.
These dumbfucks are wearing shirts that commemorate his literal surrender, bearing the slogan "never surrender". They are fucking stupid, in other words.
For the dumbasses that are going to buy and wear these to virtue signal to other dumbasses, no creativity is needed. These are the people that think it's a real knee-slapper to wear "Let's Go Brandon" gear (or "Fuck Your Feelings" or "Trump that Bitch" or....).
If they are spending lots of money to "own the libs" - which really means signal to all family and friends, as well as strangers to stay TF away from them - they are going to spend it on any form of obvious dreck like this.
Really awkward that Jordan's second number was 45
Be pretty funny if Nike held a trademark for sneakers with a 45 on them for that reason…
I read your comment as "45 on them for that treason". Still works.
Fuck me, one of my daughters was randomly assigned #45 for club volleyball this season. Didn't even think about it but now I feel dirty.
Jfc, I’m so tired of this shit.
Jesus Christ on a cracker...I'm going to laugh my ass off at the first moron wearing these
I'm going to feel sorry for the parents that force their children to wear these
If you know anything about sneaker-heads, you know they don't often wear their very expensive sneakers.
Which makes these things even more stupid. But you and I aren't the target demographic for throwing $400 in a trash can.
I know I don't wear my USA made Vans I bought when I was young nor do I wear my North Face Vans....but I couldn't be bothered to think about that trash..hell of but hitops and spray paint them gold first, if I was into that sort of thing.
I thought this was a joke, but nope, the man continues his scams: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/trump-launches-sneaker-line-rcna139334
What do you even say, at this point. Holy hell.
Wow. I just-
Wow.
Those would be prime ATBGE material, if i didn't know that they are produced so cheaply that you get orange feet cancer wearing them.
