You just can’t teach patriotism or, apparently, proper behavior to those who hold no interest in it. Most people would pick up on what’s going on around them, note that everyone else was saluting or had his hand over his heart, but a narcissist never really takes note of others.
Also am curious about what was going on when this photo was taken.
Was the National Anthem being played?
Perhaps a "Pass and Review" by the Troops?
"Retire" or "Present" the Colors?
All I know is, this worthless slimebag should know better than to stand their with his Mussolini grin while everyone else is saluting.
I have never, ever seen such a flippant attitude at a ceremony for our Veterans in my entire life.
He knew how to follow what he apparently thought was appropriate protocol for a Muslim who meets the Saudi King.
Typically though they copy others. Like an "Oh I am supposed to show sorrow here" type of thing. The fact that he doesn't even attempt that makes me think he's doing it out of spite to patriotic Americans who hold these sort of rituals as sacred. (he and his base hold them in contempt)
Because while Americans were eating hot dogs, apple pie and letting off fireworks for Independence day, in obama’s youth he was in Indonesia going to Muslim Mosques. Those were his formative years.
He lives in America. America does not live in him.
I don’t think it’s a matter of him not learning or not wanting to learn how to do something ... I think it’s deliberate. His petty little way of showing his contempt for this country and even western civilization.
Maybe he "knows" and is doing this on purpose. After all, it's not the first time.
I'm not saying it's intentional, but have you ever "missed" like this? Or known anyone who has? Or anyone who missed twice? Really. Ever?
