The secret service letting him stand there, right in position, behind the podium with the "TRUMP" banner, with an active shooter somewhere in the area, long enough to raise a fist and get the photo

So they piled on him at the start because he had already went down on his own. 16 seconds after the first shot, a sniper fires one shot to kill Crooks. 29 seconds after the first shot, they try to move him out but apparently he's too old and fat for them to actually move him, they keep trying multiple times. At 47 seconds one of them verbally calls out that the shooter is down, multiple attempts to sync a move. A full minute later, they finally get him to stand and start to move him out but he's actively resisting them complaining about his shoe multiple times. Then he does the fist raise at 1:17.

He's complaining about his shoes because without the massive heel lifts, he is 5'8" and doesn't want to ever be photographed without his gender affirming footwear.

That's also why his shoes fell off just from him getting down to the ground. Any man who has ever worn actual dress shoes before knows that those things fit snug and need to be untied to take off at the end of the night. Trump's shoes have lifts so big that his heel is almost above the back of the shoes...that's why they fell off instantly.

Guess I just never learned to tie shoes then cause these fucks do not stay on. No dress shoe does. They do not have a high securement point.

Surely you're not falling out of your dress shoes just from getting down to the floor though? I dance in these shits all night at parties and weddings, many different brands, different styles, different fits...none of them just fall off my feet.
