re: #93 wheat-dogg, raker of forests, master of steam

Is he completely devoid of any decorum or common sense?

Also, I found it inappropriate for Trump to salute HW as finished “paying his respects” by the casket.

He looks like he’s singing the National Anthem.

And yes, it was inappropriate for him to salute.

Ronald Reagan started the salute thing when the Armed Forces salute the president, and I found it inappropriate then as well. The Commander-in-Chief is being saluted as a mark of respect for the civilian government by the military. The CinC should not be saluting back. If the CinC wishes to acknowledge a salute, he can thank the person, &c.
