  2. I’ve always thought the presidential fitness test in public schools should be set by the actively sitting President

  3. This is how we should treat Trump, if not more hostile however never forget newsome is not an ally of the left. He’s just as corporate controlled as Kamala Harris. Learn from him but do not follow him.

    This is so juvenile and I love it. At the same time, we have to communicate good policy as well as we mock the orange moron. The challenge is finding the balance.

    In the past, Democrats tried to always take the high road. This country proved that the high road can get lonely. Time to get a little dirty, without forgetting the policy us still important.

  5. Embarrassingly condescending. You don’t make General or Admiral by being a fat lazy slob. The few that are overweight most likely just got old, their metabolisms slowed and they can’t train the way they used to after 2-3 decades of physically demanding work.

    Also, people might be surprised what is considered “fat” in the military. A 5’10” male over 190lbs is pushing his luck. Fat senior officers are almost unheard of, and the ones who are out there are probably struggling with some of the issues I’ve mentioned.

  6. A fat orange-painted idiot draft-dodger who thinks MIAs and POWs and KIAs are losers, addressing a bunch of generals…

    There’s something wrong with this picture.

    I do know that Army soldiers and officers must meet specified body-weight and muscle-fat ratios. Donald Trump most certainly would not meet these requirements. In any case, Trump evaded the Vietnam draft by falsely claiming that he had bone spurs. Moreover, he told General Kelly that soldiers, airmen and sailors who die fighting for their country are not “heroes,” but “suckers.”

  8. What kind of clown show you guys running down there. Every day is more ludicrous than the last. President can’t keep his low IQ bullshit to himself, Governors trolling the fat bastard President, and on and on. For the love of humanity please stop all the crazy shit. I get it but by the gods people lets get some adults in the room please. Not that I blame Newsom, it does seem to irritate fat bastard President, but how the fuck did the USA get to this stage of bizzaro land.

    It’s not just Newsom, other Democrats are fighting back too.

    Bernie is having a round table right now with some of the more progressive Democratic senators to explain why they’re shutting down the government. They’re even using the B word (billionaires) and explaining the lies that Trump is saying about undocumented immigrants getting medicaid.

    But corporate media isn’t showing it. Instead they’re showing Trump propaganda.

    >it’s completely unacceptable to see fat generals and admirals in the halls of the pentagon

    Yeah they should really get their priorities together. Fuck work, go sign up at a crossfit gym, lather on so much makeup you look like you’re made out of rubber, and use as much hair gel as humanly possible.
