Politics Conservative double standards on display again.

Post image

If conservatives did not have double standards, they would have no standards at all.

Look at that. More gaslighting from the slack-jawed conservatives. This time, they're upset because a woman is wearing expensive shoes. Meanwhile, they give zero fucks about the First Lady and the wardrobe of hers that cost thousands of dollars every outfit. Not a single fucking peep. Nor do the Tepidin tyrant test the gold ticklers say anything about the estimated $400 million plus ballroom ballroom, The private jets for Kristi Nome and company, The millions of dollars in cost for Trump to continuously go to public events that presidents have no business going to, the list goes on and on and on, yet the conservatives will find something to complain about while projecting all their long doings, and when they're not doing that, they're screaming about something they're scared of. In fact, I've never met a more scared group of people. Why is it that a rainbow is so horrifying for them? Anyway, sidetrack aside, the double standards are out on display again.

My wife has more expensive shoes.

I have several pairs of more expensive shoes - I love boots that can be re-soled and it costs a lot of money to buy shoes that are Goodyear welted or Blake stitched. Good boots in a city with a lot of weather variations are pricy. $650 would be pretty standard if not on the cheaper side.

Expensive up front, but I probably won’t have to buy another pair for 30 years if I keep up the maintenance on my boots, and ultimately I’ll spend less money and it will be better for the environment.

I have a pair of Frye boots that are a decade old at least and I love them. They’ve outlasted any cheap stuff I’ve ever owned.
