"My guess is those tires are custom special design. Trump can certainly make the change but it’s not like pulling into a Firestone."

Military grade run flats I suspect, possibly with a bullet resistant sidewall.

Imagine an American company telling its employees that they can’t wear a hat or shirt with the President’s name on it!!!

Walmart has a policy of NO printing of anything on apparel worn at the workplace. I personally have gotten a warning because I had a shirt on that said “US Marines”. We live in a military town and a lot of people wear stuff like this. NOT ALLOWED. You can lose your job over it. All shirts must be plain (no imprint) or Walmart logo’d which can be brought at a few Walmart owned/licensed shops.

“How about waiting until the tires need replacing to switch brands rather than waste taxpayer money on what might be perfectly fine tires?”

Oh STOP IT! You can’t be SERIES?

Ever heard of “TIMING”?

I can’t read 100 comments so if I’m late, oh well.

How much money does Goodyear get from supplying tires to the military???????

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?

Or should I say “used to get”.

“Unfortunately, BLM terrorists would probably start attacking their stores.”

That could be detrimental to BLM health. The guys who change tires carry pry bars and know how to use them. BLM’s toadies primarily attack women, senior citizens, trannys and liberal police punching bags.

Enough for their stock to take a big hit for this little incident.

When I see a BLM sign in a yard, it may as well be a Biden sign.

Do we know if they are even pneumatic? I’m not knowledgeable about the load range of run-flats in truck sizes (what it is), but the presidential limousine is heavy and survivability and performance requirements are unique.

Thirdly, Goodyear has always wholeheartedly supported both equality and law enforcement...

You support a racist, explicitly anti-police organization. Own it.
