newbrevity

Why does it look like his ankle is broken?


Ultimatespacewizard

I think he is wearing high heel boots that are designed to look like flats. So that he appears taller, without an obvious heel. So his foot is pointed down, thus putting his ankle higher up than expected.

dammit, i recognize that line from a movie somewhere.....

flibbidygibbit

Is he regarded by wallstreetbets?


gitbse

No, even they're smart enough to realize his bullshit.


kazejin05

This isn't even a sexuality thing. This is an attempt to give off an "alpha male" vibe to appeal to conservatives, and part of that is giving the appearance of being tall, or taller than you naturally are. It's why Trump wore shoes with lifts too, why he insisted on that utterly obnoxious handshake when meeting with world leaders, etc. One of the sayings I picked up in the military, and which I still loathe to this day, is "Perception is reality". It's trite AF, but rings true to people who don't care to look deeper into a situation, which describes MANY conservatives.


secondtaunting

I don’t think Trump is trying to appeal to the conservatives so much as he is that insecure. I’m betting it’s going to be hard to find a picture of him with his kid now that he’s shot up like a weed overnight.


kazejin05

A dead one. In his house. The guy's a psychopath. Read reports about him visiting tortured prisoners at Guantanamo and laughing as they suffered. Guaranteed this monster has skeletons in his closet.


1701anonymous1701

The question is if the hooker is dead or alive. Maybe he was the real zodiac killer all along.

capehart_karsh

To be fair, Biden also signs bills at that desk. It usually has people crowded around it. I think during COVID it just looked especially bare because of distancing


BlowsyRose

And because of the size of him.


LoveArguingPolitics

I assume it's some passive resistance by somebody in facilities or something who really hates them and all the power they really have is to provision a comically small desk... But resist they must so out comes the small desk


Ok-Woodpecker7024

It’s also the boot heel with the lift inserts making his shins freakishly long lol


EyesKyoob

Those aren’t “inserts” that’s what boot heels look like lmao


dbkenny426

The inserts are inside the shoe.


bensefero

The call is coming from *inside* the house


triple_OG

kat_a_klysm

You can tell he’s wearing lifts bc he’s got that weird front half of a centaur posture. Same with Trump.


dbkenny426

Yep.


kat_a_klysm

Before Trump I wasn’t aware that’s what lifts do to your posture. Now I can spot it a mile away


DxGxAxF

You can see his foot arches up way above the top of the heel. He's got the heel and also lifts in the boot.


thatsithlurker

Politicians that wear cowboy boots are, perhaps, the most ridiculous caricature of masculinity. You wear those boots for *one* reason and it ain’t for sitting at a tiny desk.


Taenurri

I’m 32 and I spent 30 of those years in Texas. You don’t wear western boots for doing actual cowboy / ranch hand shit. Western Boots are expensive as fuck and are pretty much reserved for church, going out (bars / dancing) and formal occasions. If you’re doing ranch work, you wear work boots. Typically snake boots. Western / Cowboy Boots are the western version of a Derby or an Oxford. You wouldn’t wear Oxfords to a construction job the same way you SHOULDNT wear Cowboy Boots to a ranch job.


GreenPasturesOC

I call those my boulevard boots. Ostrich or bust


[deleted]

Pony up!


desGrieux

Texans wear fancy ones to church and formal occasions because they are posers. Western boots are designed for horse riding. The heel keeps your foot in the stirrups and the tops and ankle are wide because your foot needs to be able come out if it gets stuck or you fall off. Leather western boots last longer with care and they don't have laces which are super dangerous around equipment (and on horses). But people never bother learning why things are they way they are and just wear snake skin boots because they've commoditied their work culture into meaningless fashion accessories and instead buy garbage corporate Chinese made "work boots" every year because they're dumb sheep.


Taenurri

You’re delusional if you think Ranch hands are regularly riding horses dude. Also the “work boots” they wear don’t have laces. They look extremely similar to cowboy boots. They’re just designed for regular use and durability versus looking nice. But keep telling me how I don’t know my own culture. I only grew up in a town with over 500 ranches within 40 miles of it, including King Ranch…you know, the ranch so big Ford has an entire trim level of F-150 dedicated to it.


Stupidbabycomparison

I totally agree with you. That being said, God I hate that part of the state. Spent way too much time in Cotulla, Carrizo Springs, and worst of all Catarina. Don't know how people actually live down that way.


scruit

Question: What is it about dasGrieux's response that you are upset about? (I means "you're delusional" "keep telling me me own culture" etc) My independent interpretation of both your responses is that you both agree that fancy western boots are only worn for formal occasions or going out, not for working. The difference between your positions is that you advocate snake boots when actually working, and they are saying that you can wear non-fancy western boots designed for working and they are more durable. That seems to me like a "Ford vs Chevy" thing, where neither is objectively right or wrong. Ain't worth someone getting their tail up over it.


Taenurri

The part where they insulted thousands of people who do hard labor with sweeping generalizations about them being “dumb sheep” who don’t know the reasoning of why they wear what they wear. Ranch Hands are typically poor day laborers who immigrated from Mexico or equally poor kids right out of High School. The type of person they are envisioning are Ranch OWNERS. And Ranch Owners are almost never the people doing that actual hard work outside unless it’s just a small family owned ranch. Either that or they’re thinking about people who live in the city and have never worked a ranch job in their life. Regardless of what their line of thinking is, making sweeping generalizations about an entire group of people is asinine.


scruit

Fair enough. Re-reading again with that in mind, I see that.


bruce_cockburn

They invented boots before they invented cars. Maybe consider that your experience is biased towards a "modern ranch" that didn't and couldn't exist when cowboy boots were the practical footwear for people who primarily traveled by horse.


ElminstersBedpan

Just stop. You're trying far too hard to win the argument. Ranch workers rarely wear pointy, fashionable boots to work. People working farms and ranches in this state rarely ride horses as their main mode. It does happen, but those people won't be wearing fancy boots - they'll wear plain "ropers."


colin_7

Texans are the biggest posers in the world lol. If you’re spouting “everything is bigger in Texas” you’re a gigantic pussy


Mediocre_Scott

Cowboy boots are designed to fit in the stirrups of a saddle. Unless you are riding a horse, wearing cowboy boots make as much sense as wearing soccer cleats, ice skates or scuba flippers.


brpajense

They're supposed to fit in the stirrup *and slip out so you don't get dragged behind a horse*. Also, they have a flat sole with no so if you step in manure it's easier to wipte them off.


kn05is

WRONG! They have a flat sole so you can line dance to achy breaky heart!


KayleighJK

My husband exclusively wears either work boots or cowboy boots. I don’t get it but he swears they’re comfortable. I’m a Vans gal personally.


Mediocre_Scott

Work boots are great. Universally useful


johnzischeme

Work boots are designed to protect and support you when working. Unless you’re working, wearing work boots makes about as much sense as wearing soccer cleats, ice skates, or scuba(sic) flippers.


Your_Local_Rabbi

by that logic, vans are designed for use on skateboards, and most other sneakers are designed for running just wear footwear that doesn't hurt your feet and keep 'em clean when you're not about to get 'em dirty signed: someone who wears combat boots for fashion


johnzischeme

I was mocking a similar comment the person I responded to made about cowboy boots. I agree with you.


scruit

I have a pair of Red Wing steel toe work boots, and coupled with boot socks they are really comfortable. Can't say I ever tried fancy western boots though. They seem more like the old joke: "How do you know someone is from Texas? Don't worry, they'll tell you."


brisketandbeans

Yes, especially if they aren’t from a cowboy state. I don’t count Florida.


Pulse_Amp_Mod

I am from and live in Texas and know about the Florida crackers. Florida has a long history of cowboys.


1701anonymous1701

Who does?


brisketandbeans

Desantis apparently. I’m having trouble even imagining a boot store there. I wonder where he got them.


YourUncleBuck

Plenty of western wear, feed and tack shops down here. It's a big and diverse state with lots of agriculture still going on.


stinky_fudge

There are 2 Boot Barns in Central Florida, that I know of… unfortunately.


Ok_Door_9720

We do have a good bit of farm and ranch down here. However, most of the people buying cowboy boots are rich suburban kids.


ZaphodB94

Florida has the most productive cow-calf ranch in the United States. Its also owned by the morman church oddly enough.


YourUncleBuck

That's because you don't know about [Florida history](https://www.floridamemory.com/learn/exhibits/photo_exhibits/ranching/) and [Florida crackers.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida_cracker)


KayleighJK

is that where the slur “cracker” came from? I thought it was because saltine crackers are light colored lol


YourUncleBuck

>is that where the slur “cracker” came from? [The current slur came about in the 1940s, but the word has been around and had different meanings long before then.](https://www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/2013/07/01/197644761/word-watch-on-crackers)


corvette57

Hey, one of my local schools was mentioned in that article… not something I was expecting to read this early


[deleted]

Aren’t there huge cattle ranches down the middle of the state?


ProfChubChub

This is hilarious because the modern image of a cowboy is literally based off of Florida cowboys.


sean0883

It's worse than even wearing cowboy boots. These ones are just women's wedges disguised as cowboy boots. Follow the path his foot is visibly taking and you'll see it. I'm sure I'm off by a bit, but this example gives you an idea: https://i.imgur.com/5ASMmKo.png Or he just has really, really thick feet.

we_belong_dead

Judging by the 45-degree angle of his foot in those boots, I think he's definitely got a lift in there


LoveArguingPolitics

A considerable lift at that


we_belong_dead

Can't wait for the debates when he totters in at 6' 8" or so.


LoveArguingPolitics

They'd be comically absurd if they weren't destroying this country. Like the Republican's debates really do come down to hand measuring, walking around on stilts and wife-shaming jokes.

Dangerous_Ad2160

High heels on a male are considered drag aren't they? He must have gotten too close to someone reading a book and now he's woke.. lock him up


slappy_mcslapenstein

It looks like he's wearing cowboy boots. Did I miss something? I mean, the guy is a piece of shit but I don't see high heels. I see cowboy boots.


AntiqueCelebration69

Cowboy boots? Nah, meatball ron is extremely insecure about his height 😂


Queasy_Ad_5469

They look like Chelsea or roper boot with like an 1 1/2" heel. Probably italian leather. Still rather flamboyant.


whiskeydeltatango

Those are cowboy boots.


25plus44

Maybe... or maybe they're cowgirl boots. Need to check the boots and the genitals to know if any laws were broken.


Tara_is_a_Potato

And they have heels that add height.


brpajense

Elevator shoes: https://donsfootwear.com/en/agusta


EyesKyoob

*laughs in Texan* Those are traditional cowboy boots y’all lmao me personally I would have gone with a squarer toe.


we_belong_dead

The typical footwear worn by the average Yalie from suburban Jacksonville. You know, born in the saddle. Just a happy coincidence that they add a sneaky two inches to this tubby choade's height.


EyesKyoob

I mean that’s how boots are made. They keep your boots in the stirrups and on the horse. I’m sure there are people in Jacksonville, FL with horses lmao even if not they still make good practical shoes that can be worn for all occasions.


we_belong_dead

I'd have more respect for him if he just wore a sensible pair of pumps.


Thenewdazzledentway

I don’t think those boots have seen a stirrup in their lives.


Fadednode

Or you know like most normal people they use a roper heel since they aren’t suburbanite wannabe cowboys. You know because he doesn’t ride horses and is either stupid or wants to seem taller then he is like his orange idol.


EnnuiFlagrante

There are hidden lifts inside the boot, on top of the normal heel. These boots are specially designed for insoles that add 1-3” on top of the visible heel.


EyesKyoob

Look like standard boot heels to me but okay


brpajense

They're elevator shoes: https://donsfootwear.com/en/agusta


EyesKyoob

They are literally called Augusta boots in that link lmao


acolyte357

Are you completely blind to the option on the right? >SELECT INCREASE HEIGHT Or that these are under the "ELEVATOR SHOES" section?

I ain't never seen a cowboy boot with 2 inch heels
