Cash-Strapped Trump Offers A “Personalized” Pair Of His Infamous Gold Shoes To Anyone Who Gives Him At Least $2.5M In Donations

I honestly can't even pretend to be surprised.

Donald Trump’s deep-seated desperation for cash is truly getting out of hand. As if the weird NFTs, the $400 gold Trump shoes, the $60 “God Bless America” Bibles, and his less-than-impressively performing public Truth Social stock weren’t already bad enough, the scandal-plagued, legal woes-ridden ex-president is now offering up a “personalized” pair of his notorious golden Trump sneakers — for the low, low price of $2.5 million.

According to a new report from NBC News, the personalized high-top Trump sneaker offer is part of a donor-access program shared with the outlet by a source close to the Republican National Committee.

The highest tier appears to be the “Trump Victory Trust” circle. Donors on this tier will receive the personalized sneakers, as well as “dial-ins for monthly updates from the RNC’s “election integrity and litigation” team, VIP benefits at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee this summer, access to national retreats and ‘Victory’ events, and, of course, a signed MAGA hat,” according to NBC.

The report further explains:

Lower levels of giving and fundraising include ‘Ultra MAGA’ at $834,600 for the Trump 47 Committee, a joint fundraising venture that allows the former president and his outside allies to collect cash and apportion it to his campaign treasury, the Save America political action committee that has been footing many of his legal costs, the RNC and a series of state party committees.

‘Team Trump 24’ membership starts at $250,000, ‘Team America First’ requires $100,000 in donations, “Club 47″ has a $50,000 price tag and ‘MAGA 24’ costs a fitting $24,000. Each level comes with some of the benefits, but the high-tops are exclusive to the high-end ‘Victory Trust’ bundlers.”

A significant portion of all donations will, as expected, be directed straight to Donald Trump’s Save America PAC — the same entity that’s been footing his legal bills and fines for quite some time now.

Federal campaign finance laws limit personal donations to a measly $3,300 per campaign committee. However, political action committees and “Super PACs” are beholden to no such limits.
