Donald Trump Tennis Shoes Sell Out at Sneakercon

One thing about Donald Trump he’s a damn hustler.

The Donald showed up to Sneakercon in Philly this weekend to promote his new kicks and was met with a mix of jeers and cheers from the crowd. Mostly boos.

Trump, never one to let him see em sweat and always one to spin bad press, thanked the crowd for having “a lot of emotion” for him.

WATCH: “MADOFF: The Monster on Wall Street” Trailer on Netflix

“What profit a man to gain the world and lose his soul?”

Today was a Netflix and chill kind of day so I caught up on this riveting limited series about disgraced Wall Street financier Bernie Madoff.

The three part documentary throughly chronicled Madoff’s early life leading up to him becoming one of Wall Street’s richest investors known for running the largest known Ponzi scheme in history, worth an estimated $65 billion.

The fallout from Madoff’s financial fraud crimes was beyond catastrophic, not only for his innocent victims — most of whom lost their entire life savings, but for his own family. Madoff recruited his two sons and his brother to work alongside him in the business but they all denied knowing about the fraud. His sons would eventually be responsible for turning him into authorities.

In the end both his sons died. One son committed suicide and the other son died of cancer shortly after his father’s conviction.

Netflix Series Leaves Out Relationship with Griselda Blanco and Her Black Boyfriend

The new Netflix series “Griselda” is out now and fans are calling out a few omissions about the cocaine queen dealer’s life that were left out of the film — mainly her relationship with a black man named Charles Crosby.

Blanco served 15 years in federal prison before being released and deported back to her homeland of Colombia where she was eventually assassinated in 2012.

During her incarceration, ex drug dealer Charles Crosby is the only black man known to date or even get close to the Colombian cartel queen.

Crosby was in his early 20’s and Blanco in her late 40’s. The unlikely romance sprung from a pen pal relationship in which Crosby initiated by writing the queenpin a letter.
