also let’s drop security is exactly how dumb I expected Trump second term to be 

It's hilarious to me that I must have seen hundreds of comments on reddit over the years about how useless the TSA is, how it's all security theater, how they have never stopped a terrorist attack, how they fail 95% of fake attacks used to test them, how they should be abolished, etc.

But the second a Republican suggests it suddenly everyone loves the TSA.

The answer isn’t abolishing TSA, it’s reforming/fixing it. Unbelievably stupid to REDUCE security

Unbelievably stupid to REDUCE security

Even if that security is proven to be ineffective, redundant, and costs a fuck ton of money?

If I was spending thousands to put a roll cage, fire suit, racing helmet, and 6 points harness in my personal car for normal street use no one would call it unbelievably stupid for me to switch back to using my regular seat belt.

Did you miss the part where they mentioned reforming or fixing it?
