I assume that it would be just desperately uncivil for people to refer to him as “clown shoes” whenever possible. And we would not want our polity’s discourse marred by incivility.

I hate giving any slack to Desantis - but those look alot like a classic last from any good boot company.
with the exception that his feet appear to be freekishly long.

I’ll defer to the experts.
Ron DeSantis has been gallivanting around the campaign trail spreading anti-LGBT propaganda in paper-thin pants and boots with what seems like room to spare. Conspiracy theories have taken hold of social- media platforms like Twitter and TikTok about the Florida governor’s signature boots concealing four-inch platforms inside them. Stilt-truthers have begun sharing diagrams, hypothesizing where DeSantis’s feet begin and end, where his toes are hitting inside his shoes, how high his own heels are actually off the ground, and why the tips of his boots curl up so horrifically. It takes a great man to stand in his truth, but it takes a significantly less-great man to stand on his tippy toes.

He 100% walks like someone wearing high heels for the first time.
Sad!

Yep, he has a classic case of little man syndrome. My father had it, though not to the extent of the Desanctimonious shitgibbon. Dad played tough instead of wearing stupid lifts.

He’s so insecure about his height he basically has to wear high heels disguised as some ugly ass boots? What a sad little man. (And that’s not even a dig at his height, which is completely average.)

As part of the slightly-vertically-challenged community myself, Ronny Longtoes does not represent us. He should just accept it and appreciate being able to fit into smaller spaces more comfortably.

It looks more like he’s walking with a wedgie to me…

I always wanted to be 6’5". It is comforting to know I can get there in a pair of Desantis boots.

Let the record show that I stopped growing prematurely only because I am scared of heights.

DeSantis once again attempts an area where Trump has had a lot more practice.

Makes me wonder whether he’s wearing Donnie’s hand-me-downs.

There’s clearly no human foot in the ends of those shoes, but I think we’re missing an obvious possibility here - he’s not wearing lifts, he has hooves.

I was the shortest kid in school, had my growth spurt veeeerrrry late, and still only stand at 5’9" — and never in my life have I felt like this would be something I could remotely consider doing.
