President Obama is visiting Vietnam today and paused for a picture with communist party President Tran Dai Quang in front of a bust of Ho Chi Minh.
Perhaps its just me, but given the nature of the diplomatic relationship this specific optic seems rather inappropriate.

Why not, he’s among his true friends.
At least he is not bowing to the statue of Uncle Ho. We have that going for us.
his heroes are clear - Che, Ho......can hardly wait for the “blame America first” speech at Hiroshima. i’d say my blood was boiling - but my circuit board is long-since blown. forgive my mixed metaphors.
Gayest president ever..
Last month it was Che Guevera in the background; today Ho Chi Minh. Will he sneak in a trip to China (Mao) or Russia (Lenin) for the Trifecta?
Let me guess, he did a selfie with ear to ear big grin, didn’t he?
He is kind of bowing to the guy he is shaking hands with.weird pose. I wonder what lib Vietnam vets think of this
Yes, he is bowing slightly.
All that’s missing from the photo are his best friends, William Ayers and Jane Fonda. And where is the “reverend” Wright??

Do you thing the AAA emplacement that shot McCain down is still there?
I wish they’d throw his ass in the Hanoi Hilton for a while.
Somewhere Hanoi Jane is pissed that she wasn’t invited.
He’s not bowing.He started to bend over(his natural response)and caught himself.
I’m sure they have Jane Fonda’s infamous tank somewhere . . . perhaps he can post on that as well - they both inhabit the same cesspool except that one of them rose to a place where he could destroy our (not his) country.
He’s probably hoping someone will erect a large statue of him on the Mall in D.C.
...and on Memorial Day week. He would rather honor our enemies than be at Arlington sharing our losses and their sacrifice. Damned traitor! I’m surprised he didn’t invite Jane Fonda to help with the photo op. His legacy gets stronger every day, it will leave a lingering taint on the presidency.
I’m saying bow. His natural response when confronted with foreign leaders that are ideologically opposed to the USA.
