The Trump Campaign released a statement on Tuesday reacting to "bootgate," the viral topic discussing whether or not 2024 GOP presidential candidate Ron DeSantis has inserts in his boots to increase his height.
"A scathing new article from POLITICO about Ron DeSanctimnonious’ high-heeled shoes comes on the heels of an embarrassing interview on the Patrick Bet-David show that led to #bootgate trending on X," the statement from Trump spokesman Steven Cheung began.
"When asked directly about why his boots look like stilts, DeSanctus offered up the implausible explanation that he just wears off-the-rack Lucchese boots, doing major brand damage to a great American footwear company. If there are any enterprising journalists willing to contact the Lucchese press team for their thoughts on DeSanctus, they are reachable here."
