If a left-wing New York City judge’s $354 million ruling against him has devastated former President Donald J. Trump as some pundits claim, he isn’t showing it.
On Saturday, the day after Judge Arthur Engoron’s obscene financial punishment of the GOP frontrunner, the unbowed Trump dropped by a sneaker convention in Philadelphia where he unveiled his new $400 “Never Surrender” shoes.
In a surprise appearance, Trump took the stage at the Philadelphia Convention Center to an emotional reception as his theme song, Lee Greenwood’s “God Bless the U.S.A” was played, giving a short – at least by his standards – speech and introducing the sneakers which are already selling like hotcakes.
“That’s the real deal,” Trump said as he displayed a golden pair of the must-have sneakers to cheers mixed with a smattering of boos from unpatriotic sourballs.

“This is something I’ve been talking about for 12 years, 13 years,” the former president said on Saturday. “And I think it’s gonna be a big success. Your influences have been very positive. They’ve been real influences and they love it and they love what we’ve done.”
“I have some incredible people that work with me on things and they came up with this … and I think it’s gonna be a big success,” Trump added.
The crowd chanted “We Want Trump” and “F**k Joe” Biden during his appearance in a city that the Democrat leader has staked a claim to but the resistance runs strong in the City of Brotherly Love
President Trump arrives to speak at SneakerCon (!) in Philadelphia. (Biden could never.)
The crowd erupts: “We want Trump! We want Trump!”
He remains an absolute phenomenon. Which is one of the many reasons the System hates him.

“Donald Trump showing up to hawk bootleg Off-Whites is the closest he’ll get to any Air Force Ones ever again for the rest of his life,” huffed the Biden campaign’s communications director Michael Tyler, according to NBC News.
The $399 golden with an American flag super limited edition high-top sneakers were available for pre-order on the website gettrumpsneakers.com where they sold out in a matter of hours and according to some reports, were already going for thousands of dollars on eBay.

Also available are low-topped shoes $199 T-Red Wave sneakers emblazoned with the letter T and a winged “45” as well as POTUS 45 in white for the same price. Both also proudly display the American flag. There is also Victory 47 cologne and perfume for sale at $99 a bottle.
“Trump Sneakers are not designed, manufactured, distributed or sold by Donald J. Trump, The Trump Organization or any of their respective affiliates or principals,” the website states.
Adored by Americans who are inspired by his defiance of an establishment that is rotten to the core and its decrepit figurehead leader, Trump’s resilience will surely frustrate his enemies who have burned down the entire legal system to pursue their vendetta against a man who has transcended mere politics to become a living legend.
