Haley Byrd‏Verified account @byrdinator newly-confirmed Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross wore a pair of slippers to Trump's address, which is a very cute old man thing to do

Robert Little‏ @inlanddefense 12h12 hours ago @byrdinator I think those are Belgian Shoes, the brand not the country. Very preppy. Hard soled unlike slippers.

Opera slippers are expensive.

That’s the whole idea of being a billionaire - you can do whatever you want, provided it is legal. You can certainly spend your own money to make your feet comfortable.

Slippergate. Special Prosecuter needs to be appointed. What did Trump know and when did he know it?

Of course ..Daily mail goes into more detail. Despite Trump banning them I like to go to Daily Mail for info , pics, and details.

Stubbs and Wootton offers a variety of patterns on their slippers, which have a starting price of $425, but none on the site feature the Department of Commerce logo, which suggests that Ross's were custom-made Follow us: @MailOnline on Twitter | DailyMail on Facebook

That’s it! We need to start impeachment proceedings! < / Rosie O’Donut Rant Off >

A little class warfare anyone? The same media had no problem gleefully reporting that the Obamas were being offered $60 million to write their memoirs.

Ohhh..the horror. Pffft!

Basically, I am worth Billions so I will do what I want..even in the halls of Congress and I don’t care what you think.

Someone must have fed this information to a reporter. How could they have known where they came from so fast..maybe someone asked him.

Trump will kick his butt because the bespoke slippers are made in Europe.

Great counterpoint.

Odd.

Dang, I only wish they came from the Ivanka Trump line

Heads up Mr Ross, add some Trump ties and after shave to your collection

Wasserman & Keith Ellison(or whatever his name is) were probably wearing galoshes made in Iran, hoping to walk on water when they spouted their anti Trump Venom, after his speech? Trouble is: Their boots were filled with dung and they sunk into oblivion, after President Trump's successful speech?
