1. Look at that smirk . . . .

[Trueblue1968]

20. tRump is sickening. He is sooooooooooo stupid. The aphid on my rosebush is smarter than is.

[Patterson]

2. There was a North Korean officer in the crowd.

[Retrograde]

3. How did amazing grace get to be the go-to song

for firefighters and police? And now it’s being co-opted by right-wing politicians?

I’ve come to hate the song based on its new associations: if anyone tries to play it at my funeral I will personally haunt them

[TexasDem69]

9. Why surrender an amazing song to Trump

Fuck him amd his supporters. They aren’t taking that song, or the various patriotic symbols they try to appropriate for their fascist purposes.

10. Make sure to put it in your will etc!

Say it on your deathbed, "No Amazing Grace....."

[Aristus]

21. I sympathize with you that right-wingers ruined "Amazing Grace" for you.

They ruined the American flag for me. Never fly it anymore.

I still love “Amazing Grace.” I hope the right-wingers don’t ruin it for me.

I want it played on bagpipes for my funeral. The definitive rendition was used in “Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan”, and “L.A. Story.”

May you reclaim it from those bastards…

31. Forever young by Neil Young

Is my funeral song, family has been notified.

[Jim__]

4. He probably thought it was the National Anthem.

[Irish_Dem]

16. Yes I think so. He didn't realize another song was being played.

[Takket]

5. does he even know what planet he is on?

[Irish_Dem]

17. That might be the only question he can answer correctly.

But don't make a bet on it.

[patphil]

6. Wow! He hasn't got a clue what he's doing. The guy's a moron.

[Demovictory9]

23. Daikyfails lead article if this were Biden

[Blue Owl]

7. What a stupid fuck

[House of Roberts]

8. He shouldn't have been saluting.

He wasn't in uniform. Not wearing a too-long asshole red tie.

And who is the guy next to him in the white shirt? He kind of looks like Richard Childress, a NASCAR team owner, but I can't tell.

[highplainsdem]

15. I saw him identified as Childress by someone on Twitter, so I'm guessing you're right.

[keep_left]

18. That little stunt also draws needless attention to Trump's...

...biggest (bigly-est?) negative: he never served. Even worse, he's a documented draft-dodger. (Furthermore, he's on record in an interview discussing how VD was his "personal Vietnam" ).

[UTUSN]

24. That's it. His ignorance is an abomination.

[niyad]

27. When has anybody ever saluted to the hymn "Amazing Grace", regardless

of what they were, or were not, wearing?

[SarahD]

11. Who is the other guy?

The one with his hand on his heart? That's a mistake, too.

[highplainsdem]

14. Richard Childress. .Wikipedia link:

12. they both look dorky

[Johonny]

13. He bet on the pace car

It was leading race then somehow it just gave up.

[FelineOverlord]

19. Apparently, he's saluting at everything for future fake videos

OMG

SO EMBARRASSING!

Trump caught staging ANOTHER scam to try to make up for getting booed last night. He’s seen waving aimlessly, staging a fake moment that his editors will likely cut together later to give the appearance that a large crowd cheered for him.

He’s just walking around saluting everything today. He salutes during Amazing Grace. He’s saluting people. Saluting airplanes.

22. Lotta Libertarians at NASCAR, I think he's just trying to hide his face to keep from being recognized.

[LudwigPastorius]

25. Trump is saluting General Jesus.

...an inspirational leader, but one who's not afraid to get his hands dirty leading the troops.

[dalton99a]

26. Dumbass will salute during Jingle Bells at Christmas

The best patriot ever

28. The man who wrote that hymn became an abolitionist
