A photo of Secretary of State Marco Rubio's oversized shoes is going viral after the Wall Street Journal reported that President Trump bought his male aides the same shoes that he wears, and they're all "afraid not to wear them."

Secretary of State Marco Rubio is getting roasted for wearing oversized shoes following a Wall Street Journal report that President Donald Trump has given his male aides the same pair of black dress shoes that he wears, and they're "afraid not to wear them."

According to the publication, Trump has been handing out leather Oxford shoes to staff members, agency heads, lawmakers and other political allies. Trump has even asked Cabinet officials during meetings, “Did you get the shoes?” He reportedly favors pairs from Florsheim, which are relatively inexpensive, with many selling for around $150.


Photos of Rubio’s feet went viral after observers noticed him wearing a pair of shoes that were too big.

According to the Wall Street Journal, Trump "has taken to guessing people’s shoe size in front of them"—he even "asks an aide to put in an order and, a week later, a brown Florsheim box arrives at the White House.”

It's clear Trump's guess for Rubio's shoe size was way off—and late-night host Stephen Colbert couldn't resist weighing in:

"Take a look at JD Vance and Marco Rubio's itty bitty ankles drowning in these clown shoes. Here's another picture of Marco Rubio looking like he's trying on dad's shoes to be secretary of big boys."

You can hear what Colbert said in the video below.

The mockery was swift.


Vice President JD Vance previously shared that he was with Trump and Rubio in the Oval Office when Trump suggested they had "sh***y shoes" and were in need of new pairs.

Vance recalled that Trump "runs us through this incredible shoe catalog. The President is gifting us with four pairs of shoes.”

Indeed, per the Wall Street Journal, “recipients have taken to wearing their Florsheims around Trump, some apparently begrudgingly," even complaining in private about having to "shelve" their Louis Vuittons.

She said it was “awful” that Trump was golfing while the U.S. is at war with Iran and facing rising prices, arguing he should be focused on his responsibilities instead.

Tucker Carlson Issues Somber Apology For 'Misleading People' Into Supporting Trump: 'We're Implicated In This'

Acknowleding that he's "implicated in this for sure," former Fox News host Tucker Carlson lamented his support for President Donald Trump on his show this week and issued an apology for "misleading people" into supporting him.

Carlson has broken with Trump over different issues over the last several months. His remarks come shortly after he criticized Trump for launching a war with Iran and urged U.S. military aides to refuse any orders involving the killing of Iranian civilians. Trump responded by calling Carlson and other high-profile conservative critics “stupid,” attention-seeking, and out of step with his political movement.

Karoline Leavitt Gets Brutal Reminder After Claiming Trump 'Follows Through' On His Promises

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was quickly reminded how easily President Trump waffles on his own decisions after she claimed that Trump "does not bluff" when he says he's going to do something.

Leavitt appeared on Fox News to defend Trump's handling of the war in Iran and to criticize media outlets who reported that Trump's claims of progress—which include threatening Iranians with further destruction for not fully opening the Strait of Hormuz—don't align with what's actually happening on the ground.
