Watched it again!
Still the same standard oath.
The little hand sign I have seen before in the military, the government & in corporations for years.
First time I think I saw it was when I was a kid watching the Mercury Astronauts.
You are reading things into that sign that aren’t there because you want it to be true !
It’s called “confirmation bias”.

And you notice I said all that without resorting to insults ! An adult would accept that others might see things differently.

“””Watched it again!

Strike three, you’re out.

The oath you posited is:

[“I, AB, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.”]

But Gen. Flynn and those with him in that video **quoted** a modified oath:

“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God. Where we go one, we go all.”

At that point Gen. Flynn lowers his right arm from the oath position at the end of his oath and transitions to the the thumbs up and says “God Bless America”.

“””The little hand sign I have seen before in the military, the government & in corporations for years.

So you’ve missed Trump’s iconic use(as is his rally dance moves) of thumbs up and the context he has used it in all this time?:

Gen. Flynn and company are mimicking their president in agreement and support of him.

“””You are reading things into that sign that aren’t there because you want it to be true !
It’s called “confirmation bias”.”””

And you notice I said all that without resorting to insults ! An adult would accept that others might see things differently.”””

I noticed your confirmation bias intersecting your cognitive dissonance as well as your hypocrisy. I have much stronger adjectives to use but am restraining per Boss’s decree I read this morning. :)

You are welcome to express your unsupported opinion based on choosing to ignore other’s(not just my own) evidence which doesn’t fit your bias.

But back to Flynn’s “God Bless America” as a comparison to a *team* of people who post as “Q”:

WARNING! PSY-OP AHEAD:

“God Bless America”
https://qanon.pub/?q=god%20bless%20america

“GOD Wins”
https://qanon.pub/?q=GOD%20WINS

“GOD”
https://qanon.pub/?q=GOD

“pray”
https://qanon.pub/?q=pray

After you have glossed over the above also you can get back to slandering those patriots on the Q threads as communist plotters, of which I haven’t posted to and rarely read in months due to lack of time and method, and keep fomenting division and strife among FReepers.
