Just be be completely safe from airborne toxins, they should make it a completely airtight cage of bulletproof glass.

I prefer presidents who don't need to cower behind bulletproof glass.....like Harris.

Be thorough! Surround him with bulletproof glass from all angles, and make sure there's no air holes where bullets could get through. He will be completely impervious to both bullets and oxygen!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 weeks ago

Produce my own oxygen. So true. People call me the best oxygenator ever. Did it and will do it again. So true. Best ever.

Isn't bulletproof glass woke? Should just have more guns there. Then everyone would be too afraid to shoot him

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Nah, not enough good guys with guns. They should provide free gun to every attendees just in case.

Just extend an arm out, you won't miss. It's yuge.

[–] [email protected] 41 points 1 month ago

Why? Is there some sort of problem with gunfire in America? I wonder why that might be.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Hopefully it is not transparent glass.

I hope it is really a 2 way mirror. He can look at himself and the crowd will see him.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago

I'd rather the crowd have to look at themselves as he rambles on, clueless to the whole arrangement.
