It's 3 AM and your children are asleep. Who do you want running the nuclear football down the forty-yard line: A sanctimonious fraud on his tippy toes? Or a thick-blooded American who aced all his standing lessons?trump-dapper

American presidential benchmark: Can they stand up?

He stands fine, it's hard to see it when the photoshop out the back half of the centaur

Is that photo genuine? Incredible.

Edit: Here's what it looks like leveled.

Does that make a difference? fry

He's wearing lifts, rat boy pete did the same

  • every presidential candidate. Appearing taller on stage makes you appear more authoritative in American politics apparently. There's that famous picture of Trump having the worst posture possible to compensate for the lifts in his shoes.

hasn't there basically never been a president shorter than 6' outside of Madison or something? kinda makes sense why every political figure feels like they have to do this.

[-] [email protected] 22 points 2 years ago

Martin Van Buren was 5' 6". I don't think it mattered much until debates started being televised, they just picked whichever slave owner was loudest

The photo on the right looks like he's wearing fucking clown shoes. Anyone have it without the drawing?

All the presidential candidates have lifts in their shoes. It's just part of the game. Americans have somehow got it in their minds that taller = better

Pic 2 is OOP not understanding what being shiny is

[-] [email protected] 24 points 2 years ago

I thought it was less about the shine and that there was a weird crease high up in that area but it’s hard to know with the quality of the photo lol

With a slightly different set of historical contingencies, we could have ended up living in a world where formal attire demanded really ridiculously large heels on all people's shoes, and been able to watch high-powered businessmen prance around on Formal Stilts.
