Trump saluting a North Korean general.
Weird.
I suppose in the USA it's also usual for the lower ranked person to salute first, then the higher ranked salutes back, higher ranked puts hand down again and then the lower ranked puts the hand down?
So by saluting to a North Korean general the highest man of the US-american army says he's ranked lower than some North Korean general.
But usually, a civilian, or s.b. without uniform does not salute. Or is that different in the US? At least I don't remember any of our (German) ministers of defence saluting a general.
Nah, the president is a civilian and actually isn't supposed to salute at all.
Obama was attacked for supposedly not returning a US marines salute.
Trump salutes a foreign states general - first. Thus indicating that Trump is the subordinate and no one seems to care.
The North Korean general was shocked when this happened.
The general wore such a dashing uniform, Trump just couldn't help himself.
That too of course
Dominated AND weird orange felon/rapist,liar.
