That's better than the Bundy joke I made on another post about this. 😆

It's okay Saudi Arabia and Russia are going to buy a million pair, then they'll never be produced and transacted. Easy money

Anyone seen wearing those things should be slapped and sent back to school.

Who's producing these hideous things? I wouldn't hold back the urge to point and laugh if I saw them in public

900.000 won't cut it. Even double that won't cover his fines

$399 * 900000 = $359,100,000

You are forgetting that Trump just straight up refuses to pay anyone for their work.
