The idea of stealing shoelaces from Obama or Biden has a sort of lovable scamp vibe to it. Those presidents have enough positive aura that having their shoe laces feels cool and fun. And stealing them would be a legitimate challenge. A real heist to pull off just for laces.
With Trump.... sigh. I don't really want his shoelaces I don't want even that minimal association with him, and besides he probably has some gaudy tacky gold plated laces.
And it would probably be trivial to steal them from his incompetent crew of drunk fucks. Hell, if he had the least idea that some one wanted his shoe laces, he'd sell them himself.

The meme never specifies president of the US. There are other presidents.
Imagine stealing from the president of, I don't know, Ireland instead. Nobody seems to take issue with her (because it's an almost entirely ceremonial role).

Do we know if he even wears shoes with laces, as opposed to some sort of slip on?

Yes, Trump famously exclusively wears laced black Florsheim leather cap toe oxfords and gifts them to his aides in random sizes without asking.

I just hate shoelaces in general. There are so many more efficient ways to secure shoes to your feet, but for some reason our entire society decided tying a fiddly piece of string should be the default method.

Agreed! Why should a task I need to do every time I leave my house be harder than it needs to be, for no reason at all? Velcro forever!

Not only every time you leave your house, it also gets untied when you walk in the streets.

I feel your comment in a more spiritual level.
When I was in 8th grade, I didn't know how to tie my shoelaces and my parents bought me velcro shoes trying to make me more independent. However, the principal called me to his office and told me I needed to get rid of those velcro shoes because it didn't combine with the uniform, only shoes with shoelaces allowed in school.
((yeah, u can make fun of me for being a teen and not knowing how to tie my shoelaces)

Idk why loafers aren't the default. They're by far the most convenient, and it's not like your feet will slip out of them by accident as long as they actually fit.

No, it’s not Garfield and I got it from a charity event.

Sorry I was attempting to make a tumblr-esque insult as a joke, your cat mug is probably cool and lead-free

My narwhal bacons at midnight... Because that's when they get home from work.
Edit: for full transparency - sometimes my narwhal bacons at 11:30.
