You know you’re dealing with sane people when their first response is that genital inspections would solve the problem. /s
Well, it might actually bring these lunatics to their senses if they were forced to strip for inspection before using the bathroom.
Hahaha. That’s the job you signed up for. Repubs treat everyone like shit and you earned their attention by being his detail.
Let’s not blame victims of sexism. Sexism is bad, mmm’kay.
Also there’s good odds they don’t get to choose their detail. The best of the best of the best probably get assigned to the standing POTUS and everybody else probably gets the runner-ups. So you could go into that career (probably years ago) wanting to protect and serve your country and all that martyr bullshit, and then because you got a 98% on your practicum while the other candidate got a 99% now you’re stuck getting sexually harassed by Trump for the rest of your career.
It would not surprise me if Trump requested female agents. He seems like the kind of person that would do that.
I’m laughing at the institution of the Secret Service, not the women within that maga shitheads are complaining about.
The leopards, my face… Oh nooo
Do you think that Trump’s secret service people are there because they’re loyalists? I doubt they get to choose their details.
It’s only leapords meme worthy if it’s someone who was gladly supportive of (in this case) sexism against others beforehand… we have no evidence of that here.
They are somewhat deliberately picked. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/dec/31/joe-biden-secret-service-team-trump-loyalty
And the rumors back in 2020 were that Trump made sure his team were all MAGA people. That way he didn’t have to worry about snitching. Which was later demonstrated when the USSS just magically up and lost records they should have had from Jan 6th.
I imagine that sitting presidents are able to hand-pick their detail, but do former presidents also get the same freedom to choose their own staff? I would assume that former presidents just get who they get, unless there’s a legitimate problem with the assignment.
Isn’t this just a natural thing that would happen in this instance? I can’t imagine the number of secret service agents that want to be specifically assigned to trump is that high.
Conversely I would assume the number of secret service agents that don’t want that detail is fairly high. I assume a sitting president detail is more engaging for most in that line, plus the trump camp comes with its own special flavor of volatility.
I would assume those two things work together to essentially mean that trump did mostly have his choice for who works with him but who knows really
Nobody is forced to do any job when your career is such that you’re working for the president. Resignation is always an option.
And no, they were gladly supportive of someone who supports sexism. And then sexism. Thus, the leopards.
The leopards part happens when Trump throws his own security detail under the bus to stir up his base, which if his past is anything to go by, he’ll be doing shortly.
THEN we can have the leopards meme about the secret service. Pop it back in guys it’s not ready yet.
You think any security at any level actually care about the property or people they’re tasked with protecting?
It’s a job.
Yes, I’m told I need to put my body, flesh and blood, before the president of it seems he may be shot.
It’s a job, okay. Just like any other.
/s
Hey hey, that’s not true! If you have inherited wealth or you hate minorities, they will admire you for life…
One social media post, by a user described as a “MAGA2024 Ex-con deplorable” and viewed 10m times, shows a male officer carrying a large gun next to a female agent in action at the Trump rally.
Its caption says: “Secret service agents: Before DEI vs After DEI.”
As the article says, the first female agent was appointed in 1970.
Someone tell me who the woke liberal pro-DEI president was back in 1970 because Republicans must really hate him.
They started allowing female secret service agents in 1971–firmly in the middle of the Nixon administration.
He must have been woke. /s
Lmao, “women are perfectly capable of defending fascists too!” 🙄🤦♀️
Like, fuck the patriarchy and all its ills, but don’t mistake this bullshit for feminism or anything that deserves any applause, it’s hardly even bare minimum, and they’re all a bunch of bootlickers, not heroes, whatever gender.
It sure seems like there were some serious concerns ahead of the shooting and I’m astounded there isn’t a policy in place where anyone at whatever level of the command structure could call a code word and immediately put the candidate in full protection mode until the all clear was given.
Sounds like another Uvalde excuse where command structure wasn’t clear cut, quick to react, and decisive, but I guess we will see.
I’m sure they do, and the word is probably just “gun”. Seems like nobody called it, though.
That’s because even the secret service is security theater and many are playing dress up. They aren’t actually prepared when shot goes down. A public librarian, social worker, or nurse will react better.
A librarian will react better than someone trained, albeit inexperienced? I doubt it. The USSS agent should act equally or better on average, probably much better.
You have no idea what bullshit public librarians put up with and they don’t carry guns.
Yeah, some dipshit keeps coming in and moving the Bible and koran to the fiction section to take pictures for /r/atheism. THATS NOT HOW THE DEWEY DECIMAL SYSTEM WORKS. This is worse than Dachau.
So they also assume women shouldn’t hold positions in government?
Oh they believe there’s a position for women to hold alright.
Face down, ass up?
thats obscene. missionary only and no enjoying.
In the kitchen.
Obviously. They’d rather women only be tradwives.
Yeah. And we’ll find out when they fulfill their stated goals of firing all federal workers and replacing them with “their people.”
Cool stuff.
I will say those particular women that I saw were a bit short compared to the person they were guarding. When the agents ringed around him, his head was clearly visible above those ladies. That part seems suboptimal. This of course is true for some men too though.
“Aren’t you a little short for a stormtrooper?”
Trump is also just very tall in general, most agents would be shorter than him I imagine
No doubt, but the guy agents they had matched up, making the ladies who are probably reasonable tall look small.
