I don’t know if Trump is the most pro life but he did appoint three pro life Supreme Court Justices, and Mitch McConnell help get them through the Senate so there is that. Good things happen when people work together for a good cause

In the article published Tuesday, Politico Magazine’s Derek Guy noted that three bootmakers, including Zephan Parker, who owns the Houston, Texas-based Parker Boot Company, said that DeSantis’s boots are altered to accommodate lifts.
“I’ve dealt with these politicians many times,” Parker told the outlet. “I’ve helped them with their lifts. [DeSantis] is wearing lifts; there’s no doubt.”
“3 Expert Shoemakers Say Ron DeSantis Is Probably Wearing Height Boosters”
1. Shoemaker Nicholas Templeman notes this unusually high wrinkle in the boot, suggesting DeSantis’ ankle sits high up.
2. According to cowboy boot-maker Graham Ebner, the leather appears stretched…

Lifts paired with the traditional cowboy boots, which tend to have higher heels, can essentially “turn them into five-inch stilettos,” Parker said, noting that in instances where lifts are used, the heels of the boots are often shortened, as the combination is “too much for the common man.”
“So on a ready-made boot, they’ll cut down the heel about half an inch to accommodate the lifts, which looks to be what happened here,” he said.

Two other shoemakers weighed in. London-based shoemaker Nicholas Templeman told the publication that DeSantis’s boots have an uncharacteristic crease high up on the decorative, weaker parts, indicating a lift on the interior.
Austin, Texas-based bootmaker Graham Ebner made a similar point to Politico,

Who surrounds himself with Bushies? DeSantis or Trump?
Or the pound of orange makeup he wears on his face.
Are you painfully and willfully unaware of the fact that “W” Bush and his pack of rabid globalists hate Trump and LUUUVVVV Desantis!

Seems like the tall gents have the insecurity issues.
What Bushies does DeSantis surround himself with?
Trump staffed his entire administration with Papa and Junior Bush’s JV team.
That he might have done this and some are making a big deal of it just exposes the superficiality of much of our political culture. Stephen Douglas was a foot shorter than Abraham Lincoln. I am not aware that Douglas did anything to make up for that deficiency. He was referred to as “the Little Giant”, which was not an insult, but a reflection of the man’s substance.
I know you meant this as a joke, but it is also true.
At this point I think it is less about attacking DeSantis and more about making fun of Desantis's ridiculous supporters.
This is ron disgruntled®'s bootgate.
You saw it here first.
FFS. Who cares. So some people are taller or shorter than other people. WTF does this have to do with anything? This is simple stupid bigotry to dwell on a person’s height or lack thereof.
That too.
He won’t leave home without it!
Uh, exactly. So what compels DeSantis to wear lifts in his boots?
So what if he does? Personally I’m president Trump all the way. My 5’2” dad wore them and my 5’8” Elizabeth Taylor lookalike mom wore flats;-)
DeSantis has no chance to be the nominee. He's done. Why this idiotic nitpicking over shoes and possibly “lifters”, which in reality is a nothing burger, unlike Tippy Toes Bush...
For what moronic reason does this stupid topic live on? Who is the OCD retard that can't get over this and get to the next topic?
This is as absurd as people ripping DJT for his bad hair.
folks need to grow up.
