Donald Trump is suspected of trying to influence the US presidential election with his new shoe collection.
A week ago, Trump launched golden basketball shoes called “Never Surrender”, which are decorated with American flags and the man’s own initials.
Forbes according to a Fox News reporter Raymond Arrayo has hinted that black voters in particular would now turn to Trump because they like shoes. The comment has caused a big uproar.
Entertainment website TMZ asked former NBA star Lou Williams about Trump’s alleged election tactics. The answer was to freeze.
– If that (fishing for votes) was his purpose, he must not have understood how intelligent people are. We could see this from miles away, Williams acknowledged.
This is what the “Never Surrender” shoes look like. ap
– And those shoes aren’t even nice. They will not become a collector’s item.
Williams thinks that voters are interested in other things than basketball shoes.
– Are we really talking about shoes, and not about which direction our country is going? Our country, where we live and where our children will grow up? He asked.
