I recall at a church meeting someone said the best way to figure out people’s gifts is to spill a cup of coffee.

One person will step in to clean it up - they can be on the facilities crew. One person will go get another cup of coffee - they can be on the fellowship team. One person will sit with the person that spilled it and make them feel better (”oh it happens to everyone, why once I ....”) - they can be a deacon.

>>This is an unscripted instinctive display of the mans character. President Trump is the embodiment of the Matthew 23:11 passage. He who is the greatest among you shall be the servant of all. This is an act of respect and compassion for this marine that a politician would never lower themselves to.

BINGO! You, my friend, have perfectly described the character of our President. And I believe that is why millions of patriotic Americans support him 100% and despise the leftist scum trying to undermine him 24/7.

I hope CINC didn’t smudge the spit shine on the bill of the Marine’s cover.

“The libs are saying this was all for show”

I guess they believe that DJT has the power to summon gusts of wind on a second’s notice.

If liberals do not have a perception of a canned or planned response, they don’t do a damn thing. They continue on to the planned event.

They would never have the audacity to be kind and pick up this Marines hat. It has no purpose for them. He works for them and should be grateful for his shiny suit.

Believe me, this is how liberals think.

I believe it would have been perfectly appropriate for The Commander in Chief to have said, “At ease Marine. Please retrieve your cover.

Perhaps not. Imagine the immediate response by local and non-local SS who saw the Marine quickly moving out of position.

The first thought would have been "WTH?".
The second thought would have been. "Was that gunfire that knocked his cover off?"
Then, "Was the Marine's movement a reaction when he was hit with a second round?"

All within 1-2 seconds.

And one person will try to tell everybody else what to do - they can be a bureaucrat!

If it were mine, I would have a new cover before the day was out and that one would be protected in a glass case...

Oh, yeah. That young feller will be telling that story to his grandchildren someday. And he'll have videos to prove it.
