That's just because he's a family man.

this movie is about the people our two presidents are trying to emulate, by the way
You just made me realize how useful calling them our two dads is for pissing off the bigots.
Which movie?
there will be blood
Just about peak meme-ification tight there 👏
He’s clearly using his child as a human sheild.
That's the joke yes
Or as a way to show one kid loves him
He started doing this on exactly December 4
Ah yes, no doubt you are referring to the fact that on this day in 2024, Princess Birgitta of Sweden died? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/December_4
Gotta have a compatible donor handy for a quick blood transfusion in case of an emergency!
I can't tell if he's trying to establish a basis for being like "child labor apprenticeship is actually cool and awesome everyone should be doing it" or if hes trying to bait someone in to being like "Why are you towing your kid around everywhere when you're supposed to be working this is no place for a child etc." and they'll try and spin that in to 'a women shouldn't be in the workplace if they have children to look after' or some shit. Can't decide what the insidious underlying reason could be other than the human shield memes. I suppose it could be all of them at the same time.
He started after the CEO was shot.
He wants to make it harder for a shooter to bring themselves to pull the trigger.
Asking for someone to pull a Thomas Wayne
He's trying to prove someone in his family loves him
Toddler armour.
"Elon and his son, twitter junior or whatever"
Kevlar musk
Does no one want to make a future Batman? Seems like a win-win.
If he thinks his kid will keep him from being beat to hell he is as ususl sadly misinformed
Remember the ending of 'The Dead Zone'? I have a stupid feeling it wouldn't be a career-ender in our reality...
He should ask himself if he personally would find the child shield to be a deterrent. I don't think he would. Why would he expect the people he is worried about to find the child to be a deterrent? Does he think CEO shooters have more empathy than he does? Perhaps it is just about the optics of the event if something happens?
Fuck the shield. If you really want to hit him, you gotta go for his soft targets. Nothing ever changes until it effects those in power, and the current one in power has enough money to deal with anything... Except the things that money can't buy.
If someone is pushed to the point that they are willing to commit murder, they likely aren't terribly concerned about the associates of the victim regardless of age, because every war has casualties. And, if the victim's suffering is the point, then they wouldn't be the target at all, and everyone close to the victim that should be worried.
If more Luigi's figured that out... Well, it'd be interesting to see.
