Donald Trump, who seeks to win the U.S. throne again, appeared at a commercial event on the 17th to promote his own brand of sneakers.
At the sneaker trend show in Philadelphia, Trump, USA, suddenly appeared to endorse the sneakers launched for the first time under the Trump brand.
There are two types of "Trump" brand sneakers launched this time. One of them is a high-top, gold with an American flag motif. Mr. Trump held the shoe at the show, saying he had been waiting for the moment for more than a decade and that the sneaker was "going to sell well."
A newly formed Trump-branded shoe monolith** has called the gold sneakers "limited edition" and has been typed "sold out." In addition to shoes, this ** also sells Trump-branded perfumes.
This is the second time Trump has engaged in for-profit business activities since he announced his candidacy for the 2024 U.S. election in November 2022. He has launched digital trading cards with his own image and published books.
The Associated Press mentioned in the report that the day before the launch of his own brand sneakers, Trump was sentenced by the court to a fine of 3 for financial fraud and other crimes$5.5 billion, and he was also sentenced to more than $83 million in damages in a defamation lawsuit last month.
The Associated Press said it was "unusual" for Mr. Trump to show up at a sneaker show to promote his brand's sneakers, and he was seeking to win over more young and minority voters, especially those of African descent. Once elected as the Republican nominee, the support of this segment of voters will help Trump face off against Joseph Biden, a Democrat seeking re-election.
The new **, which sells Trump-branded sneakers, claims to have "no political position and nothing to do with any political activity." However, according to the financial information released by Trump last year, the company that runs this ** is owned by Trump. **The product introduction is also full of "fighting" atmosphere, such as naming the golden sneaker "never say never", calling it "Trump's first official sneaker", like him "bold" and "tough".
The Biden campaign sneered at Trump's "shoe selling", saying that he peddled pirated shoes and copied the designs of sneakers from other brands. (End) (Hui Xiaoshuang).
