00:00 We're going to remember SneakerCon, you know that. We're going to remember the young people,
00:06 the young people especially that wear sneakers, right?
00:10 Former US President Donald Trump ventured into the sneaker market, debuting with Trump's
00:14 sneakers at the SneakerCon in Philadelphia, following a judge order to pay $355 million
00:20 in a New York civil fraud trial.
00:23 In a SneakerCon appearance, Trump expressed confidence in the sneakers, a project he claims
00:28 to have contemplated over a decade. The event marked a strategic move as he inches closer
00:35 to potentially contesting the 2024 Republican nomination against President Joe Biden.
00:40 The former president's alignment with popular culture through sneaker merchandising reflects
00:44 his ongoing efforts to maintain relevance in the public eye.
00:48 Reportedly, Trump launched Never Surrender, a high-top sneaker priced at $399, and it
00:54 sold out quickly, indicating early success for Trump's latest venture.
00:59 The swift sellout of the $399 sneaker, with 1,000 pairs initially available, suggests
01:05 a significant demand bolstering Trump's confidence in the venture's success.
01:09 Additionally, the product range includes two versions of T and 45 logos priced at $199
01:15 along with cologne and perfume offering at $99 each.
01:20 Despite being marketed under the Trump Sneakers, the products are technically trademarked of
01:24 CIC Ventures Ltd, operating under a license agreement to utilize Trump's name and likeness.
01:30 However, Trump's SneakerCon appearance has drew criticism from Biden's campaign team,
01:35 who has derided Trump's involvement as a far cry from his previous association with
01:39 the luxury brands like Air Force Ones.
01:42 Following his sneaker launch, Trump continued his visit to Michigan, his first public appearance
01:46 since facing legal setback in New York.
01:49 Awaiting his criminal trial in a hush money case set for March 25, Trump also faced a
01:54 substantial financial blow with the recent $355 million judgment for fraudulent property
01:59 valuation practices.
02:02 Including previous defamation penalties, Trump's total fine now amounted approximately $438
02:07 million over the past month.
02:09 Despite this, Trump has decided to launch his new brand.
02:13 Trump's Michigan visit, scheduled ahead of the state primary election, signals his continued
02:18 engagement with his base amid mounting legal challenges.
02:22 Michigan's strategic significance in the GOP nomination process underscores Trump's effort
02:26 to shore up the support as the primary season intensifies, setting the stage for a highly
02:31 contested electoral landscape in the run-up to the 2024 presidential elections.
