Donald Trump is a stupid man's idea of a smart man, a poor man's idea of a rich man, and a weak man's idea of a strong man.

The Betsy Ross shoes look nice. They should bring them back, they’ll sell like hotcakes.

I don’t much care if they release the shoes or not. I thought it was f'ing stupid that they would let an ignoramus like Kaepernic dictate corporate affairs.

You can think the shoes are ugly/distasteful and also disagree with their reason for pulling them.

I’ve heard they’re selling ones that weren’t returned for major $. Like $500...

Now the same flag that Obama displayed at his 2008 inauguration is the same as a swastika. Just when you think the left couldnt be more insane. But if you talk to the nolans of the world, there's still no such thing as a slippery slope.
