What an ass.....an NBA player thinking about wearing tRump's gold sneakers.

Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac, who had the guts and honor not to kneel during the National Anthem amid the Black Lives Matter protests, took to X to hint that he might wear a pair of Donald Trump’s new shoes, known as the Never Surrender High-Top Sneakers, during a game. These shoes are currently available online for $399 per pair.

Those shoes aren't meant for high end athletic activities.
His feet will bleeding before the first half is over.
He's just talking to talk.
