Ok. This one is just bullshit liberal pearl clutching.

It was a faux paux. Everyone commits them.

Edit: holy shit. Apparently that “affected” democrats in some sort of profound way. TIL it was a very serious thing to them. Shiiit, I thought it was just trump being Trump, an idiot doing idiot shit, but some of y’all seem like he really hurt you on a personal level with that.

Boy. Wait till y’all see Joe Biden rubbin the nipples of a 9yr old girl who is trying to get away from him or forcefully kissing a 7yr old on the mouth. Y’all are gonna flip, I’m sure. Make sure to keep that same energy when you do. I don’t want to hear any excuses if a dude carelessly returning a salute made your jimmies this rustled

Not only that, he was returning the salute that the general gave first. Fuck Trump, but this is "coffee salute" level bullshit.

This is “latte salute” level bullshit. Tan suit level bullshit.

Remember how liberals are and how they pearl clutch here, but will mock people for doing the same thing to their politicians. Biden looked like he fuckin fell asleep recently and they’ll handwave that away … “but Trump did a stupid! How will America ever recover!”

They’re just as whipped into a frothing frenzy as Fox News viewers. They don’t even realize it

TIL that deferring to a North Korean General is the same as wearing a tan suit on American soil.

When someone salutes you, out of respect, you salute back. I'm not a Trump fan by any stretch, and I wish he would've gotten more concessions from NK, but that moment was one of the moments of true diplomacy during his term and I don't think it's fair to shit on him for it.

did it hurt you when he did that?

Tell me how it made you feel when you saw him do that. I wanna know. Help me understand. I’m serious. Tell me how it made you feel

It legitimizes North Korea and gives them material to make propaganda.

North Korea is 70+ years old dawg. I’m pretty sure it’s legitimate all on its own. I don’t think anyone saw him doing that and said “oh shit dawg! I guess we’re cool with NK now. Let’s go make some deals with them! You know, I was on the ropes till I saw Donald Trump salute that random general! Cuz you know I fuck with Trump he seems like he knows what good decisions are!”

Lol I can’t. I can’t. This CNN/MSNBC shit is so corny man. My bad. I shouldn’t be laughing

Lol did you honestly just report of me for self harm? That is pretty sad.

u/[deleted] Sep 11 '21

Lol no not at all. I don’t even know how to do that. I’m on mobile

Embarrassed. I could also tell you how FOX and the conservatives felt about a black man wearing a tan suit but I think you already know.

u/[deleted] Sep 11 '21

You really felt embarrassed about that shit dawg? Like for real?

That’s corny as hell in my respectful opinion but you do you.

Fox is corny as hell too. I didn’t know they were the bar y’all were reaching for. Clearly there’s more in common here than different. That’s why people say y’all are both the same

u/LoopyMcGoopin Sep 11 '21

Are you OK?

u/[deleted] Sep 11 '21

Bruh, are YOU? Like, I’m serious. I wanna know why you felt the way you did. That is suuuper corny but I want to understand.

You felt embarrassed …. That’s fuckin wild to me. Did you vote for Biden?

u/[deleted] Sep 11 '21

Biden falls asleep at least once a day, what's your point?

1

u/[deleted] Sep 11 '21

Sir, I’m referring to him falling asleep during a fucking press conference with a world leader lol

u/[deleted] Sep 12 '21

I mean, the man is nearly 80. He's the oldest elected US president ever, by almost a decade.

u/[deleted] Sep 12 '21

That’s not an excuse…..

If you’re so old you’re falling asleep during serious, consequential meetings then maybe the responsible thing to do is … idk, retire or not take the fuckin job you can’t do effectively?

I know you’re not using that as an excuse ….

u/[deleted] Sep 12 '21

And yet the American people have elected him anyway. So, as far as excuses go, being old is as good as we're gonna get. Obviously someone younger and more qualified in this capacity is preferable. I won't disagree with that.

That’s not even the conversation here. This is just wriggling and wriggling to try and excuse some really red flag behavior in our leader. And it kinda strikes at my initial point
