Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) suggested Monday that Russian President Vladimir Putin has some sort of financial influence over former President Trump.
In an interview with MSNBCās āInside with Jen Psaki,ā Pelosi said Putin is the ārichest person in the worldā and has āstiff competitionā to being named the most evil person in the world.
Pelosi asked āwhat does he have on Donald Trump that heād have to constantly be catering to Putin?ā
Her comments came just after Trump doubled down on his criticism of NATO and said he would encourage Russia to attack U.S. allies who fail to reach the allianceās defense spending goals. Trump has also declined to criticize Putin for the death of opposition leader Alexei Navalny in a Russian prison last week.
Thatās the result:
And trump just sold nearly half a million dollars in cheap chinese shoes in half a day. Idiots are idiots. And the ārepresentativeā of the LLC that was just formed a month ago to sell these shoes is Andrew Pierce, of Cloud Peak Law (which seems to be distancing themselves from that name really quickly lol) https://wyomingllcattorney.com/About.
They are a tax evasion firm. https://www.offshorealert.com/wyoming-asset-protection-law-firm-cloud-peak-seeks-to-quash-irs-summons-for-danish-tax-investigation/
Trump may be an idiot. Or he may be somebody pretending to be an idiot. But his team isnāt. They are excellent at convincing idiots that they are smart by supporting him.
I can almost guarantee you that he didnāt actually sell that many. The whole grift is to sell like 100 pairs, but say you sold 1000, and then put another 100 on eBay for 3x the price to cash in on the fomo
Selling cheap imported designer goods to rubs is half the fashion industry playbook. $400 for a pair of shiny high tops is honestly a steal. Some of these sneakers go for a full four figures. I wouldnāt be surprised if the Trump Shoes get resold at some rally for north of a grand.
The argument that Trump is an idiot keeps running counter to the comic inability for American civil authorities to meaningfully censure or deter him from doing obvious frauds, scams, and crimes. If he looks stupid, it may only be due to the fact that the whole system is fucking stupid and heās just the clown at the front of the parade.
