Current Events > DeSantis says anyone talking about his boots has a 'foot fetish'

(+) Yeah! (+)

https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2023/11/ron-desantis-boot-lifts-foot-fetish

Responding to questions about his very likely use of height-enhancing boot lifts Thursday, Ron DeSantis said there are graver issues facing this country and suggested that anyone talking about the lengths he allegedly goes to give himself a few extra vertical inches has a sexual interest in feet.

This is no time for foot fetishes, are the words that literally came out of the 2024 hopefuls mouth. Weve got serious problems as a country. Weve got war in the Middle East. Weve got terrorists coming across our own southern border. We have an American dream thats out of reach for millions of Americans because of the Biden-flation and the high energy prices. Weve got schools that are indoctrinating kids, not educating kids, and weve got cities that are being overrun by crime."

" And I know people want to try to divert onto other issues, I know Donald Trump and a lot of his people have been focusing on things like footwear. Ill tell you this: If Donald Trump can summon the balls to show up to the debate, Ill wear a boot on my head. This is a time for substance.

Its not clear that anyone would be interested in seeing DeSantis wear a boot on his head. However, if he offered to wear his boots out onstage, and then take them off for the cameras so people could see once and for all if they have lifts inside them, that might actually put all of this to rest.

Earlier this week, in a tour de force of journalism, Politico ran a story in which some of the worlds leading bespoke footwear makers were were asked their professional opinions on whether or not DeSantis has been wearing boots with heels concealed on the inside. Their expert takeaways? Most definitely yes.

Ive dealt with these politicians many times, Zephan Parker, the proprietor of Texas-based bespoke boot maker Parker Boot Company, told the outlet. Ive helped them with their lifts. [DeSantis] is wearing lifts; theres no doubt.

DeSantis has vehemently denied doing so.

Shortly after the story ran, DeSantis rival Nikki Haleywas asked in an interview on The Daily Show if her heels were higher than the governors. I dont know, she responded. Well have to figure that out.

She added: Ive always talked about my high heels. Ive always said, Dont wear them if you cant run in them. So well see if he can run in them.

Boot licking fetish

I wanna see this.

Why doesnt he just admit it and steal everyones ammo on the spot?

I can't wait for the memes from this interview. It's hilarious how far this dude fell and it's even funnier knowing it's solely because of his awful personality

Its hard owning your insecurities but it is whats needed.

Boots are not feet

As stupid as Trump is, not showing up to these debates is smart.

He has nothing to gain and a lot to lose

So DeSatan has a foot fetish then.

What an awful retort lol he for sure wears lifts

"I need to exaggerate my height due my crippling insecurities and personal belief that no one would take me seriously as a man if I were honest about my physical stature."

Oh man, I sure hope he doesn't say that. Liberals would be so owned.

At the risk of hijacking my own thread, anyone else notice an awful lot of talk about "balls" among GOP politicians lately?

Probably part of Josh Hawley's "masculinity" bullshit.

Florida has a lot going on, but its Governor still finds the time to get some specially made boots because he has a complex about his height.

So this is the tan suit situation, people just find the dumbest thing to be fixated about and why the country is in the shape as it is.

I was kind of shocked to find out he's only 45. Boomer brain in a late gen X body.

A tan suit is just an outfit. Heel lifts are a complex.

I'm sure you knew that though.

So DeSantis has a "woke" fetish because he won't stop complaining about it?

Well if he weren't an insecure **** to begin with he wouldn't even be in this spot wearing heels to appear bigger.

No matter what you right wingers want to try and tell yourselves, no, most the situations aren't the same.

Or he could just say it makes me more comfortable. Why the extremes?

Then he should do something about his state's school teachings.

Ah yes, high heels: notoriously known for their comfort

They can make you feel more comfortable. I dont think its a bad thing to wear certain clothing to feel more comfortable or confident. I feel more validated in certain clothes, maybe thats a weakness thing, but it is what it is. The denial part is the stupid part.

gaslight obstruct project etc.

who wants to bet he has a foot fetish

If Ron DeSantis wants to wear heels because he thinks they make him feel more pretty and comfortable then he's absolutely welcome to. The fact that he tries to make it illegal for others to do the same is the scummy part.

Every accusation is a confession with people like DeSatan

He wore a pair on some late night show and they're real.

He's the fucking weirdo with a complex and he's trying to throw that back on everyone who sees it.

They're very appropriate for him, though. Clown shoes for a clown.

Amazing how much someone is able to hide about themselves until they run for president.

I can't imagine standing - nevermind walking - in those things, just going by that sketch.

Yet another example of GOP hypocrisy. DeSantis wants to ban gender affirming care but buys gender affirming boots.

Yep. Hes such a pervert....

Lifts do make you stand and walk in an awkward fashion, but people manage it all the time.

How obviously insecure. Reminds me of middle school and dudes trying to deflect back with "are you gay?"

Ron DeSantis: "Okay, how can I comment on this controversy in the most awkward and uncomfortable way possible?"

Nah, he keeps wearing boots and it's weird, so people are calling it out. Him trying to brush it off isn't gonna work lol.

Maybe it's just how the shot was framed, but he seriously looks like he's barely 5' here...

As a staunch leftist, I support DeSantis seeking gender-affirming care.
