Every kink is a kink because the object of the kink holds some specific value or logic within the social context that is then relived or subverted within the kinky dynamic. If foot worshipping wasn't, historically and symbolically, an act of submission in society, it wouldn't be a kink at all.
The theory about foot fetishes is that the nerves between the genitalia and the feet run very close together in the backhaul. If you have crosstalk between the nerves, one stimulates the other. That's how you get sexual gratification from foot stimulation, or toe-curling orgasms.
In fact I was talking about "foot worshipping" and not foot fetish in general, which are arguably very different dynamics.
Again, no reason to shame people for sucking feet
Unless they're into that.
But this isn't about kink shaming foot fetishists - it's about the power dynamic and bruising Trump's ego. It's about as NSFW as you can get without getting into major trouble. Showing dommy mommy fElon in latex holding a leash and Trump on his knees wearing a pup mask on TVs in a government office would be hilarious and amazing, but I don't know if you'd survive long enough to laugh about it.
