The message of the video is clumsy and mean spirited, and worse, doesn't make the point it's trying to make. It found a way to say the president is a socialist, an elitist AND a hypocrite. And it's main argument supposedly proving this... doesn't-- and here is why.
The safety of the president's children is a matter of national security. The safety of your children or mine--is not. The same way the president's safety is far more important, inherently than yours or mine. Obviously.
It was a stupid argument, and it makes us all look stupid. It was also apparently unnecessary, since one of the EO's signed by the president promised incentives to hire resource officers, whatever that means. As a political move, the video was a disaster.
