Trump never ceases to surprise!

Donald Trump never ceases to surprise us! After all who else would launch their own sneaker line just one day after being ordered by the courts to pay the state of New York a cool $355 million for fraud? Donald Trump might be the shameless king of attempting to monetize on his fame!

Never Surrender

As reported by CNN, Donald Trump unveiled his shiny golden Trump Sneakers called the "Never Surrender High-Top Sneaker" at Philadelphia's Sneaker Con on February 17. The price to wear a pair of Don's shoes isn't for the faint of heart, each pair will set you back $399!

 

13 years in the making?

Trump spoke at a podium as he showed off the sneakers for the first time saying,“This is something I’ve been talking about for 12 years, 13 years, and I think it’s going to be a big success.” Perhaps the former-President of the United States is hoping to pay back the state of New York with his shoe sales?

Limited edition

According to the BBC, one thousand pairs of golden sneakers were produced and sold out almost immediately Saturday on Trump's newest website, 'Get Trump Sneakers'.

 

 

No, this isn't a joke

Anyone who thinks it's a joke just has to go to the 'Get Trump Sneakers' website and confirm that this is all true.

Will they become collectors items?

Now the resale of these golden high-tops has triggered speculation they may become a collector's item. Others claim that the loud shoes will be collecting dust in the attic before long.

"Budget friendly" Trump shoes

As for those who want a pair of Trumpy shoes but just can't cough up nearly 400 dollars? Don't worry, Trump thought of you too. On his website you can also find two more economical models of Trump sneakers which will only set you back $200.

Who wouldn't want to smell like Trump?

You can even smell like Trump too! For just $99 you can purchase a bottle of 'Victory 47' perfume or cologne. Naturally, after this unexpected announcement, lots of hilarious memes about Trump's latest business venture started to pop up everywhere.

Insane resale: $9,000 for a pair

This Trump fan paid $9,000 for this pair of sneakers signed by the former president. This man obviously really adores Donald...or has plans to resell them for even more!

Resale skyrocketed

It really didn't take long to have numerous pairs of Trump sneakers available via resale to those who have a bank account healthy enough to afford the payment.

 

Glorious memes

Considering that the NBA celebrated the All-Star this weekend, it was logical that someone would come up with a meme related to basketball, but nobody expected this masterpiece!

Furious criticism

Obviously, just as many Republican followers have celebrated this initiative, but many others have criticized it, although some have done so with memes that are a bit too rude.

The repeated meme

And lots of people enjoyed taking the chance to poke fun at Trump with the use of clown shoes, which is almost too easy of a joke.

 

One more

In fact, there are more models of clown sneakers in the memes that swarm the internet than there are models of sneakers on Donald Trump's website.

Expected guest

Naturally Joe Biden had to accompany Donald Trump in this collection of memes.

Another from Biden

A book could be made of the Joe Biden memes with the gold sneakers.

More star appearances

Of course, the current US president has not been the only guest at this meme party. Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama have also been included.

A letter with many options

The 'T' on the side of the sneakers is Trump's initial but many people have made their own interpretation and, in this case, alluding to the alleged quality of the sneakers.

Not exactly Trump's style

Yes, gold can be associated with Donald Trump but seeing the former US president next to the sneakers, one can say, without fear of error, that Trump's sneakers are the least Trump-like sneakers one could imagine.
