Trump Shows At Philly Sneaker Convention To Launch $399 Metallic Gold “Never Surrender” Trump Sneakers

The Pennsylvania Capital-Star reports:

On Saturday, former President Donald Trump made what appeared to be a last-minute visit to Philadelphia to speak at Sneaker Con. Before Trump took the stage at the Philadelphia Convention Center, people in the crowd waved signs reading “Sneakerheads love Trump” with a URL to a site offering “President Trump’s official sneaker,” gold high-tops with American flag logos, available for pre-order at $399.

A pair of the sneakers was displayed on the stage before Trump was introduced. Trump was only on stage for a few minutes, holding up the gold shoe and inviting a woman in the audience wearing a Trump 2024 sweatshirt on stage with him. It might seem like an odd venue for Trump, but according to filings with the Federal Election Commission, the president of Sneaker Con, Alan Vinogradov, made donations to Trump’s 2024 campaign.

Mediaite reports:

The former president made his entrance as usual to Lee Greenwood’s “God Bless The U.S.A.” but this time he carried with him a pair of metallic gold sneakers and placed them on the podium to cheers from the Sneaker Con audience, who were very loud and involved. That’s when things really got crazy.

Trump said there were some people crying, and in particular pointed out a screaming, crying woman in the crowd who he insisted be brought up.

Trump kissed the woman on the cheek as she exclaimed, “We love you so much!” and “I need you, Trump! I just need you, Trump! Yes, we need him! He’s a Christian, he’s a good man!” she yelled through tears into the microphone. “He’s an honest man! They’re after him for no reason! Go out and vote for Trump! Vote Trump!”

The website selling the sneakers is also hawking $99 “Trump Victory 47” fragrances, in case you want to smell like Glorious Leader.
