In reply to the discussion: Trump laughs and jokes during solemn "Retreat" ceremony honoring flag while on military base [View all]Stonepounder
(4,033 posts)12. Mrs. Stonepounder was married to a career military.
She informs me that when Retreat sounds, if you driving on base, you turn off your engine, get out of the car, and face the direction the music is coming from.
We have NEVER had a President who is so disrespectful of the office, the military, the Constitution or the country as a whole, as the shitgibbon pretender in the White House. He doesn't give a flying fuck about NFL players taking a knee, he's trying to get his revenge on the NFL for not letting him into their club. Oh yeah, also, he doesn't really like anyone who is not a WASP, and preferably a well-to-do WASP.
God, I hate him.

As far as respecting the flag goes...he's basically grabbing it by the pussy.

Okay, you have GOT to post this on the Video and Multimedia column! It deserves a post of its own.

That all the service personnel were standing at attention and saluting might have been a hint.

Moron Trump: "You cannot disrespect our country, our flag, our anthem, you cannot do that."

Trump thought the bugle was to honor Sean Hannity's "ratings." It's to honor the flag. And he sat.

It was never about the flag or anthem. He could care less about those things.

Just like they could care less about email servers. Just a way to demonize Hillary.
