A Thread For ClydeR

Never before in history has a major national political party in the US nominated a presidential candidate as old as the candidate nominated today by the Republican Party. Last stand of the Baby Boomers.

Stop being an ageist prick.

OH, and you still remind me of this every time you start another ridiculous thread.

And yet, the Republican nominee is still 3 years younger than the presumptive Democrat nominee & sitting president. More important, the Republican nominee has control over his mental faculties & was deemed cognitively fit for the job of President by a medical professional. Let that sink in.

I realize you are math challenged (like everything else) but the Baby Boomers were born between 1946 and 1964.. which means that there is still plenty of time to have either party nominate a member of this generation.

Born near the beginning of the Baby Boomer era, Trump is nearly, if not, the Oldest Boomer. Does the most elite and Oldest Boomer share the characteristics of younger members of his generation? Is he mostly concerned about himself? We'll see as the Republican Convention progresses by noting its focus.

Shut the fuck up loser ass attention whore.

Nobody talks about the roof of that building. On commercial buildings like the one from which the shots were fired, having anybody walk on the roof is very bad. Just walking across the roof can cause it to leak. Can you imagine how many people have walked all over that roof since the shooting? I bet if you went there today, there'd be an investigator from some agency on the roof. All that walking will probably void the roof warranty and cost the owners of the building $1 million for a new roof.

What does this have to do with anything?

The complete breakdown in security was a collosal failure and the head of the Secret Service should lose her job.

This is what happens when you worry too much about being woke and counting the number of minorities and women you have instead of hiring the best people to do a job.

I've never seen so many women on a service detail before and it wasn't a good look to see them throwing their bodies around Trump to protect him.

And for fuck sake.. if you are going to have people do that.. at least have them tall enough to actually take a bullet for the person they are guarding.

Trump is 6'3" and his detail should have people that are at least that tall.

cLyDeR rarely makes sense and usually brings up the most unimportant details in every situation.

This is what happens when you are socially inept and try to make yourself sound "worldly" from under your bed with 13 masks on.

I would think a job requirement of a Secret Service agent would be that you are able to physically carry the President (in this case a large man) something like 25 yards all by yourself. If that’s not a requirement today, it absolutely should be. Can a woman do it? Perhaps some could, and good on those that can & they shouldn’t be barred from the job if so, but the overwhelming majority of women cannot. I seriously doubt that one woman standing in front of Trump after he was shot could carry him away to safety alone.

Edit: One of the many reasons we don’t have women serving in combat roles in the military is they can’t carry/walk/fight with a 150+ pound rucksack.
