I’m truly curious how pants like that stay up?

Not to mention how idiotic it looks; but they look like they would just fall right to the ground.
Oh well; I guess that’s like wondering why people support socialism/communism when there are 100 million people dead from it.

socialism for we, but not for thee.

Canadian Biden/Harris voters, along with anti-capitalist Antifa & Marxist-trained BLM!

• Adbusters called on activists to lay siege to the White House on 17 September

by Ryan Fahey
The Canada-based activists claim that ‘inequality has soared’ and that ‘not a single Wall Street CEO spent a night in jail for his role in the 2008 financial meltdown’ in the years since 2011...

by Brian Schwartz

Mike Kempner, the founder of public relations juggernaut, MWWPR, lauded Harris’ fundraising track record.
“She has a strong and active fundraising organization. She will be an important and immediate addition to the Biden fundraising effort. She is a fundraising star,” Kempner said...

3 Sept: CNBC: Wall Street’s big tech sell-off, Biden’s fundraising record, and everything else you missed: CNBC After Hours
by MacKenzie Sigalos

11 Aug: Vox: Kamala Harris is the choice Joe Biden needed to win over Silicon Valley
The California senator has glad-handed with tech elites for decades.
By Theodore Schleifer
One particularly close bond for Harris has been with Democratic mega-donor ***Laurene Powell Jobs, the billionaire philanthropist and wife of the late Steve Jobs. When Powell Jobs was invited to speak at the annual Code Conference in 2017, she brought Harris along with her.
“I thought you would find it more interesting” than having just herself, Powell Jobs remarked onstage. On Tuesday, she tweeted that Biden had “made a great choice!”...

“As senator from California, Kamala Harris was understandably aligned with Big Tech,” said McNamee (a Silicon Valley investor). “As vice president, she has an opportunity to stand up for all Americans.”
Some activists are concerned that her personal ties to tech companies will temper serious regulations. Harris’s campaign manager for her first race for district attorney, for example, now runs the California state policy shop at Google. And Tony West, her brother-in-law, is the general counsel of Uber, where her niece worked until recently.

***Harris also has connections at Facebook, a company at the burning core of Democrats’ ire these days. She has enjoyed a particularly cozy relationship with Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg over the years, helping Sandberg market her book Lean In. Sandberg also sent her a congratulatory note when she won her Senate seat in 2016, as the HuffPost detailed...

She also tried at one point to get tough on Twitter, calling on founder Jack Dorsey to ban President Trump from the platform. That didn’t go anywhere — and Harris dropped out thereafter...

From "Rules for Dating my Daughter:
Rule Three: I am aware that it is considered fashionable for boys of your age to wear their trousers so loosely that they appear to be falling off their hips. Please don't take this as an insult, but you and all of your friends are complete idiots. Still, I want to be fair and open-minded about this issue, so I propose this compromise: You may come to the door with your underwear showing and your pants ten sizes too big, and I will not object. However, In order to ensure that your clothes do not, in fact, come off during the course of your date with my daughter, I will take my electric nail gun and fasten your trousers securely in place to your waist.
