Thanks for that about the clouds/overcast. I assumed Biden refused the 21 gun salute because wimpy Dems hate things that are militaristic while I am attracted to such things.

The afternoon of the 20th, the MSM said his 21 gun salute was performed earlier in the day in Arlington.
I later watched that footage. Then someone pointed out that salute is performed for funerals. I then watched authentic 21 gun salute for Trump and compared it with the one the MSM pushed and they are very different.
SO now, when I checked for the link, this article says it was performed in the afternoon at Arlington, but it's still the slower paced funeral salute.
This one says it was performed ahead of Kamala and Biden's "visit"
The MSM was laughing at Trump's request that he receive a 21 gun salute at his departure at Andrews Air Base. I think he asked so that people could note what one sounds like. He knew the military would not supply one to Biden.
The volleys in the presidential salute occur closer together - sort of a knuckle biter compared with the funeral one. Ah well, things slow down in death. I also note the video at the link features Hail To The Chief for Trump.
