Shoegate

February 4, 2020 Blind Gossip

[Blind Gossip] It’s no secret that American politics has become more ugly and divisive than ever.

However, it is interesting that people are always finding new and creative ways to try to make their opponent look bad.

There is a political axiom that you may have heard that goes something like this: “Accuse your opponent of your own sins” or “Accuse the other side of that of which you are guilty.”

Basically, you try to divert attention away from yourself by falsely claiming that it is your opponent who is thinking or doing those bad things.

You should expect a LOT of false rumors to be spread over the next year.

Here is a funny one we just heard about two famous politicians.

We’ll call them Tall and Short. Because they are.

Of course, height does not equate to brain power or leadership ability. However, politicians know that taller people tend to look more in command on the debate stage.

There is a rumor going around that Short may have ordered special shoes to make himself look taller, as shoe lifts can give a man 1-3 additional inches in height. 

Check out Tom Cruise’s shoes.

OK, those lifts may not have helped him Tom as much as he hoped they would, but you get the point.

Back to Tall and Short.

Now, we don’t know if Short actually ordered any shoe lifts or heel lifts or elevator shoes.

What is more interesting is that those who hate Tall have decided to divert the rumors away from Short… and attribute those exact same rumors to Tall!

They are going to spread a rumor that [Tall] is so insecure about his own height and so scared of [Short] that he has been ordering boxes and boxes of special shoes with lifts in them to make himself appear even taller.

They will swear that they have a friend or relative who personally took the order or personally made the delivery to [Tall]. Someone will mock up some receipts or labels or boxes to “prove” this happened.

Of course it’s dumb. But some gullible people will believe the story and spread it because they want to believe it’s true!

There are those who will try to conspiracy theory and shoe lift and Pizzagate the heck out of everything this election.

Think for yourselves, people!

    This is that * Bloomy worrying about POTUS Trumps height, which he should. Trump is a tall one and he uses that to his advantage. I used to love to watch him tower over Kim Jong Un.

    Weird conspiracy is Michelle Obama is actually a man, Michael Obama. Not sure as it could be exactly that.

    Bloomberg is not short. He’s average height for an American male. I’d like to have a president who’s:1. smart 2. diplomatic.

      Except that it’s been proven.
      D’oh!

    • Mama Bear says

      February 7, 2020 at 12:29 pm

      Taracu? They have shown ZERO proof at all of anything against Trump.

      You say they did? What is the proof? The whole of Washington, Democrats and Media sure have not produced one shred of evidence. So? Tell us the ‘proof’????

    • butwhatever says

      February 8, 2020 at 5:13 am

      Russia wanted to hurt Hillary and help Trump. They spent millions on internet ads, trolls and botnets, plus Manafort gave them polling data they could use to target their ads. No, Mueller did not find evidence that Trump himself WORKED WITH Russia, but Russia’s preference was no secret. Trump asked them to help. They did. He won a close election. And now Trump acts subservient to Putin.

      Definitely not the dumbest conspiracy I’ve ever heard.

    Well this one is pure silly, but I think the worst is that Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, George Bush, and more, kidnap babies and small children for the purpose of abusing and frightening them to get their adrenaline up before eating their organs, especially their brains! Who thinks up this stuff?!?

    First thought
    Tall – Biden
    Short- Bloomberg.

    I don’t believe Sanders would fall for this and the other short possibly could be Buttigieg.

    Op- bigfoot sightings. Why are photos always so fuzzy in a hi tech era???

  29. mamacita says

    Bloomberg lying about trump. So stupid, but some will believe anything bad that they can about Trump. Pretty sad really.

    Tall = Trump

    Short = Tom Styer, who is 5’8 1/2″ and petty enough to do that.

    Pizzagate is pretty feckin weird.

    • MinnieMe says

      February 5, 2020 at 8:14 am

      Steyer and Bloomie will just put wads of hundred $ bills in their shoes to make them look taller.

      Bloomie is 5’6″. Steyer is 5’8″ . mayor Pete is 5’8″. Biden is 6′. President Trump is 6’2″.

    This is straight out of the Bill Ayers playbook. It only works when people are asleep and don’t think for themselves.

    Tall: POTUS
    Short: Bloomberg

    Wildest Conspiracy? That Epstein killed himself

    • RobinBanks says

      February 5, 2020 at 8:18 am

      Epstein was too vain, arrogant, selfish and cowardly to actually take his own life. Do I believe he wanted the easiest way out of a bad situation he knew he couldn’t buy himself of again? Yes. At the thought of facing life in prison and losing tons of his precious money, I do believe he preferred death. But I doubt it was by his own hand.

    • Alexis_Rose says

      February 5, 2020 at 1:32 pm

      The sad thing is, there are millions who don’t think for themselves!

  38. sff060512 says

    Tall is Trump
    Short is Bloomberg

    No particular conspiracy theory comes to mind, just funny there’s always at least a small bit of truth to all of them usually.

  39. Gerseychick says

    February 4, 2020 at 2:40 pm

    President Trump and Little Mikey Bloomberg………Bloomberg has NO Chance……..When he was Mayor he banned big sodas in New York City…..Trump will win by big numbers…..

      Oh Bloomberg was “that guy”?! Next!

  40. omgimbackagain says

    February 4, 2020 at 2:26 pm

    Trump and Bloomberg, but now Bloomberg (short) is fat-shaming Trump. This is all so childish.

    There are some conspiracy theories that I believe are actually true.

  41. rexczarina says

    February 4, 2020 at 2:24 pm

    Tall: Trump

    Short: Bloomberg

    The dumbest conspiracy I’ve ever heard is hands down anyone that believe The Protocals of the Elders of Zion.

    • TruePatriot says

      February 5, 2020 at 2:49 pm

      That’s why I found that entire impeachment debacle ridiculous – when that British woman mentioned this in her testimony… I howled with laughter. Is she serious?

  42. stillmb says

    February 4, 2020 at 2:20 pm

    Well, Pete is short, but he’s not the kind of guy who would wear such shoes or accuse someone of such a silly thing. Pete is all business 24/7.

  43. Sleepyandconfused says

    February 4, 2020 at 2:20 pm

    Tall is probably Biden
    Short is Trump (it’s obvious he wears those shoes)

    • blubelle says

      February 6, 2020 at 12:40 am

      Obvious? Trump is 6’3”. Say what you will about his politics, but he is a tall man.

      Mike Bloomberg is 5’8”… I don’t know if he wears lifts, but he is short.

      I can’t find photos of Bloomberg’s lift shoes, only him barefoot in tasseled loafers. Must be a hamptons thing.
