Is that Joe Biden next to Jackie?

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 month ago

Yes, he was always old and he travels through time. There’s a picture of him at Julius Caesar’s coronation.

No but seriously who is that dude? He has a cool hat.

Pretty sure JFK wore a top hat to his inauguration too but he took it off for the speech.

Cool bit of trivia

Looks too young

I honestly believe that the show has been moved inside due to safety concerns, having nothing to do with the cold.

We already have one CEO gunned down. Can you imagine the target having Trump, Musk, Bezos, Zuckerberg, and however many other billionaires and government officials makes?

I think it's more realistic that he is not there for "the people" but only a select group and he would rather spend his time with them getting donations for favors.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

Yeah he’s sucking dick in the champagne room. Fuck those broke ass dollar bills.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

That is a good point and I'm sure it's a factor.

Who would be the designated survivor?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

It's not about who, but how many until we get to Bernie

JFK is two things DJT is not: a good president and shot.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago

Both unfortunate

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 month ago (1 children)

JFK wasn't old and frail like Trump.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago

Biden was and was cold during his swearing in. Trump big pussy baby and wish he could see this post, or the one where Nixon was sworn in when flags were half staff.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 month ago

I seem to recall it being cold during Biden's inauguration too. Just ask Bernie.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 month ago

Yeah, but magats are pretty sensitive, a bunch of balls, actually. Their whole persona is being sensitive to anything they didn't experience between the ages of 5 and 14. They don't like new information or opinions nit expressed in the 5 miles radius of their depressed community.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago

The 80+ crowd's joints start hurting in the cold.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago

you forget that is went we didnt just elect grandpa that could die because just because their body cant even regulate their own heat to keep themselves alive.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago

But was JFK surrounded by his oligarch tech bros after a surprisingly large number of people voiced that they do, in fact, support the public shooting of a CEO?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Meh. Maybe we'll get a repeat of Harrison's term.

~~My guess is that Trump fears assassination.~~

others have started a thread on that here.

To be fair, lizard people are cold blooded and don't do well outside in the winter.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Jesus Fucking Krist that’s cold to be giving a speech.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Oh hey, a man.
