During her Tuesday night CO-4 GOP primary victory party – accurate because she successfully pulled off the switch into the safer seat – far right Colorado Congresswoman Lauren Boebert admitted the chintzy gold sneakers she was wearing were not in fact convicted felon former President Trump’s $399 super-limited edition “Never Surrender High-Tops” that sold out quickly earlier this year, but a Chinese knock-off that sells for $99 at “Sporty Slip Ons,” Westword reports.
“These are very China, but I’m ok with that,” Boebert told a Westword reporter. “If I could’ve bought the OGs I would have.” The “Sporty Slip Ons” version of the gold Trump sneaker made the rounds on Twitter a few months ago when some libs mistakenly believed too quickly they were the fat fuck’s official brand. Maybe it was an understandable-ish error at first glance given that the page touts them as “Never Surrender Sneakers” and lists the price as “$399.99 $99.99,” clearly intended to sucker fanboys (and fangirls) into buying some piece of shit that cost a no doubt tiny fraction of that to manufacture, scamming those already scammed into wanting fucking Trump sneakers.
Too bad Boebert didn’t try to lie her way out of it. Would’ve been funnier to see a whole stupid mini-scandal spring from this. Maybe Trump’s campaign will send her a cease and desist warning.
Other Trump ballsucker Congressman Troy Nehls was spotted by Semafor’s Kadia Goba wearing either the genuine article or a more convincing knockoff outside the Capitol on Tuesday.
