Biden Snaps At Coast Guard Graduates For Lack Of Applause, Calls Them ‘Dull’
National File ^ | May 18 | Tom Pappert

Posted on 05/19/2021 10:23:25 AM PDT by RandFan

In the latest of Joe Biden’s history of blunders around the Armed Forces, the American President became verbally abusive when the Coast Guard graduating class refused to clap in response to what seems to have been a back handed insult. After complaining about the lack of applause, laughter ensued, and a few graduates gave a belated round of applause.

“I can only assume that you’ll enjoy educating your family about how the Coast Guard is, quote, the hard nucleus around the navy forms in times of war,” said Biden, laughing at the beginning. It is unclear whether Biden was insulting the popular reputation of the Coast Guard as an unimportant part of the U.S. Armed Forces, despite the fact that – with a shoestring budget – the Coast Guard completes dangerous work in the Caribbean and is responsible for apprehending more illegally smuggled cocaine than any law enforcement branch in the country.

“Wow, you’re a really dull class,” Biden then yelled. “I mean come on man, is the sun getting to you? I would think you’d have an opportunity when I say that about the Navy to clap, but we came here together.” At this point some members of the Coast Guard graduating class began laughing, then prompting a belated round of applause.

None of the vile or rude things this man says are called nasty and mean by the press.

The Coast Guard Cadets are owed an Apology from the sheeple of the United States of America for inflicting this senile son of a bitch upon them. I very seriously doubt they get it, but they were owed one. I myself voted for President Trump who liked, admired, and respected them.

Well, you know how they do it in North Korea: first one to stop clapping gets executed by an antiaircraft gun.

Fundamental...and burning...contempt for the United States Armed Forces is what today's Rat Party is all about.

He doesn’t make sense. Then insults them. Then throws out a c’mon man. Classic Biden buffoonery.

“...It won’t be long before he begins wetting himself....”

He probably already does.
IF not, he should be every time he hears that hideous, evil, joker laugh of the KamelToe.

I went to the USCGA.

When we arrived we were handed a book (about 3/4” thick) with a variety of quotes, stories, instructions and the like and were told that by the end of the summer we were to have it memorized. At any time we could be stopped by an upperclassman and asked to recite, from memory, anything in that book. Among other things it had in it...

Q - “How long have you been in the Coast Guard mister?”

A - “All me bloomin’ life, sir! Me father was King Neptune, me mother was a mermaid, I was born on the crest of a wave, and rocked in the cradle of the deep. Me eyes are stars, me teeth are spars, me hair is hemp and seaweed and when I spits, I spits tar, I’s tough I is, I am, I are, sir!

and this one...

Q - “What is the Coast Guard?”

A- “That hard nucleus around which the Navy forms in time of war.”

In other words, that “joke” is pretty old by the time the Cadets graduate. They have heard it over and over again for 4 years. That someone around the President thought that it would be a good laugh line only shows that the administration is totally out of touch with the military.

Oh, he needs quite a bit more than that for what he has done to the Military in four months.

Lol...Biden is so stupid he thought he was insulting the Navy
Instead he was insulting the Coast Guard
What next: telling the Marines they are projectiles to be fired by the Navy?
And telling them to clap.now.
Tons of laughs
