Stupid son of a bitch.

Trump: “Do we shake first?”
NoKo General: “No, we salute first.”
Trump: “Oh, sorry. I salute you and your country and Dear Leader.”
NoKo General: “That’s better. Now we shake.
… fucking dotard.”
But at least he didn’t have a cup of coffee in his hand!!
FYI, Trump’s an asshole. Sad.
Paying homage to a regime that makes Stalin look like a piker?!! Words fail me.
Sean Hannity’s head will explode all over the…
No wait, it wasn’t the black guy. Never mind.
“Breaks with American Precedent”
That’s his fucking middle name for christsakes…
Donald J Breaks with American Precedent fucking Trump…
Almost forgot, at least he wasn’t wearing a tan suit when he did it…
Amazing how a pot belly with an arm attached to it can salute.
The story is a substantive nothingburger except as a highlight of the GOP’s treatment of every last little thing in starkly partisan terms.
Republican brainfarts and commits a minor faux pas: focus on the issues, mannnn
Democrat brainfarts and commits a minor faux pas: INPEACH!
Check out the longer and better BBC version. Kyle Griffin has it. It’s hilarious. It could be the sequel to “Two Men, One Destiny”.
It’s my understanding the salute is done to one’s superior so Trump saluting a NK general is appropriate for him personally.
American presidents used to be proud of American independence to the point of arrogance. A lot of previous American presidents must be spinning in their graves.
If Teddy Roosevelt had been present he would have slapped Trump’s hand. The servile ignorance of the current occupant is disgusting.
Gosh, you would think that Cadet Bonespurs would have learned all about military protocol when he spent those tough years at the faux military school.
Slap his hand?!
More like kick his ass so hard that his boot would get stuck…
That’s what Teddy would do…
He wasn’t bowing … there was a dollar on the floor.
Understanding this kind of protocol is part of the job, you lazy fuck. But never mind. Just throw more torn-up official records on the floor.
“As circulated by North Korean state media, footage shows President Donald Trump saluting a top North Korean military official, a stunning display of respect from the American President to a hostile and oppressive regime.”
As Trump, himself, is so fond of pointing out: THE KOREAN WAR NEVER ENDED!
So Trump – literally – saluted an enemy combatant during an actual state of war.
And this un-American traitor has the nerve to curse NFL players who kneel for our national anthem…
One could have expected that his very painful bone spurs would have made saluting impossible.
The NYT opinion page has helpfully informed me that #wellactually Donald Trump has been studying up on saluting DPRK generals for his entire life.
