    i really don’t understand how they didn’t immediately send aides to buy correctly fitting pairs. maybe these pictures are all from the first day Trump gave them the shoes?

      Nope. See AernaLingus’s comment here. This has been going on for months.peltier-laugh

      I think that not only is the oversize a totally intentional choice by Trump, but that also his sycophants know he’ll be looking to see if they are in fact clomping around in shoes too big, so they have to wear them as proof of their deference to him.

        He’s SO fucking good. Like he’s also a massive piece of shit but when he’s just being catty to his sycophants it’s hysterical.

        that’s great.

        imagining Trump’s court as a contemporary Louis XIV’s, and all the players and courtesans and eunuchs buying and wearing increasingly large and ill-fitting shoes in an attempt to curry favor and signal craven devotion.
