Hello. I would like you to know that I downvoted your comment from a federated instance that allows downvotes
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?
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.

We'll get to the bottom of this, comrades. We have our top tilt scientists on the case to settle this mater once and for all. Stay tuned!
- 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.
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?
I'm getting a no - low budget indie wrestling promo boots vine
I honestly just wish wearing heels openly was acceptable for people read as male without any mockery. Not because being short is bad, but because heels are slay.
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
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.
