Tatetopa Posted May 20, 2017 #2 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Good grief! More conservative nonsense. Donald trump is 6'2", Obama is 6'1". Its protocol; both bowed. Good for them. It is not an issue. Judge an action by the action not by whether you like the party that does it or not. That is the essence of equal justice under the law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Sam Posted May 20, 2017 #3 Share Posted May 20, 2017 (edited) Dude... that was no bow at all, he was basically bending as much as he can without bowing his head to the Saudi Arab King while receiving the highest honor. If you notice, he was straining to stand up straight without bowing his head at all, not to repeat what Obama done during his presidential visit.

docyabut2 Posted May 21, 2017 Author #5 Share Posted May 21, 2017 We as Trump supporters know that all he is doing is good for the American people, no matter how the liberal stations want to criticizes and not report it all Obama bowed down to just about every country he went to, but Trump is different and wants to stand up for the American people. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Trump bending down so the much shorter (and elderly King) could bestow an honor to him isn't the same thing that President Obama did. I'd say that Trump showed politeness but not subservience there. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.ZZ. Posted May 21, 2017 #7 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Trump has received a welcome from the Saudis that Obama never did. The King didn't even great him on the tarmac when arriving. Trump was given the highest honor possible and still people look for another reason to give more bad press to him. While we're on the Riyadh visit, Saudi state TV pulled out all the stops with their coverage. They used many cameras on the red carpet walk and greetings. I've seen sporting event with less camera angles. One thing that bothered me though was when they were playing our National Anthem and Trump's son-in-law and daughter didn't place their hands over their hearts which should be customary IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skliss Posted May 21, 2017 #9 Share Posted May 21, 2017 I heard they also shook Melania's hand, an honor they've not given to other women spouses. They normally won't shake with women at all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's all I want. Something good for the American people to come out of this. Will you and I be better off in four years? Will America better off? I don't want words of praise or criticism, just actions. No excuses, can't keep blaming things on Obama or Hillary now, They are the past. President Trump is driving the bus. let's see where we end up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are a few examples that I can pull out of my ****. Not sure I get the first one. Both Trumps wife and daughter did not wear a head dress. Besides as a personal opinion I can`t stand Saudi Arabia and give to craps to there royal family. The UN just appointed the Saudi govm as the womens rights progressive movement wtf. Second, vacation time, huh. Trump has only been in office a few months and has done more in that time than the Obama admin did in 8 years. Your right, you are pulling them out of your anus. Oh and Michelle Obama made kids go hungry because they thew out the lunchs she demanded thay eat.

thedutchiedutch Posted May 21, 2017 #18 Share Posted May 21, 2017 (edited) In my opinion this is really silly. Who cares whether Trump or Obama bowed. It shouldn't even be a topic of discussion. So silly. Looking at the Trump clip however it looks like Trump is just bending down to make it easier for the king to put the medal over his head. Some people claim Trump curtsied to the King but it looks to me like Trump isn't sure he can come up after he receives the medal so he hesitates and bends quickly again. That is just being a bit awkward in my opinion and not a curtsy. So my conclusion is that Trump did not bend down to the King but if he did I couldn't care less Edited May 21, 2017 by thedutchiedutch 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gromdor Posted May 21, 2017 #19 Share Posted May 21, 2017 This is just drama he brought onto himself. His detractors are just parroting his own words and tweets back at him. If you're going to tweet a complaint about bowing, you had better bring a footstool. The slightest nod of the head was going to get his own words throw back into his face. The same with his headscarf tweet about Michelle Obama. But it's just all silly stuff. It's like watching high school teens complain about each others clothes and mannerisms, actually. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Trump is an loudmouth and many times his actions contradict his words. I'm also realistic and can see that in this bowing case, the haters are embellishing. So it is going both ways. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
