The satire targets the former president's new sneaker line and his penchant for making baseless claims, while also poking fun at President Biden.

  • 'Saturday Night Live' aired a parody skit mocking Donald Trump's new $399 gold sneakers, featuring Shane Gillis and James Austin Johnson.
  • The skit, titled 'White Men Can Trump,' humorously suggests the sneakers give the wearer the ability to make baseless claims with confidence.
  • Trump's sneakers, part of a broader 'never surrender' merchandise line, were announced following a $355 million fine for financial misrepresentation.
  • The parody also takes a jab at President Joe Biden, introducing 'Bidens' sneakers in a humorous nod to his age and physical condition.
  • Despite the satire, Trump's sneakers have sold out, becoming a collector's item and reselling for thousands of dollars.
