'They're Excellent Swimmers': NYC Mayor Eric Adams Suggests Using 'Migrants' to Fill Lifeguard Shortage

[KittyKares]

Is he saying Americans aren’t good swimmers?

[scrabblehack]

Also lifeguards tend to be high school/college students. There’s no need for them to have jobs.

[fuzzylogic]

And they’re prepared to become ‘certified’ lifeguards right? That means, they’re willing to go through the training and continuous physical fitness assessments to continue to be a lifeguard right?

Are we talking about pools & lakes or ocean front lifeguards? Because the latter require even more training.

They do also realize, even after all the training, it really doesn’t pay that much right?

Maybe these are all the types of reasons we have a shortage in the first place right? How will this be any different because they’re here illegally?

Morons.

They might make good lifeguards. Sharks wouldn’t touch’em.

But we all know that Eric Adams can't swim, we can tell by just looking at him.

Why would he be qualified to float a solution to the lifeguard shortage?

Reminds me of what Davy Crockett purportedly said at the Alamo: “Where did all these landscapers come from?”

[gcparent]

I was wrong. I didn’t anyone could be worse than deblasio.

[Rightwing Conspiratr1]

I think Adams would be better at basketball than mayor.

[RedMonqey]

Is this a PC way of calling them “wetbacks”?

[frank ballenger]

Flower Drum Song line said by Myoski Umeki when fiance’s future mother in law was trying to undermine her marriage plans:
“I cannot marry your son because my back it is wet.”

[Organic Panic]

Why aren’t there any Mexicans in the Olympics...

Because anyone who can run, swim, or jump is already in America.

[frank ballenger]

In that case all the world loves him, right?

RE: And Eric gots rhythm.

As he heard from George Gershwin’s song....

I’m chipper all the day
Happy with my lot
How do I get that way?
Look at what I got

I got rhythm
I got music
I got my man
Who could ask for anything more?

[Gene Eric]

[Cobra64]

What a dope. This jerk is disconnected from reality.

[Cobra64]

Operation Wetback was a federal deportation program put in place by President Eisenhower in 1953/53.

[Reily]

Remember he’s the “Law and Order” candidate!

[Scott from the Left Coast]

“ This jerk is disconnected from reality.”

Could pretty much be said of America in whole.

[antidemoncrat]

Is he talking about Wetbacks?
