US presidential candidate Donald Trump presented a pair of golden sneakers at the "Sneaker Con" convention in Pennyslvania a day after he was ordered to pay nearly $355 million over a New York civil fraud conviction.
What’s truly sad about this is that the same people who would buy golden sneakers from Trump will have already lost one or both of their feets to the diabeesus.
These are going to sell out regardless of if anyone buys them. This is just a way rich people launder money.
Sell something that costs a minimal amount to make for an outrageous price. They don’t have to worry about whether or not a consumer would buy it because the object is trivial. It’s about legally passing money from one place to another in a way that looks like business.
The same thing happens when you see obvious trash make it onto a ‘best seller’ list.

Like all those terrible political books by candidates which are then bought en mass by super PACs and others to funnel money into the campaign.
