    Ha!
    Funny to watch guys freak out over this shit.

    Would you rather send maybe 37,000 to their final ass kicking contest?
    Or have Trump just Kiss their ass a couple times and be done with it?

    Stupid optics, but I don’t care about this. In fact, if little things like this end up helping actually getting NK on a real path towards getting rid of their nukes then I’d be fine with it. I doubt it would have any effect one way or another.

    Ironically I was on Reddit looking for new documentaries to watch and this North Korean one on the summit popped up. Skimmed through it and found this clip of this exact moment. So while you spin it as "oh well hey trump just saluted the guy and that's it". Well if you look at the clip, it was a gesture that was just out of respect. he went to shake this North Korean generals hand and he didn't shake Trumps hand, he went to salute Trump first and Trump did it back I assume out of respect and then the general shook his hand. So there is that. Timestamped it at 23:36

    Oh, wait...so you believe that context matters?

    Seriously, very nice catch.

    Saluting a military guy and bowing to a King aren't remotely the same thing. I don't give a shit about either but let's be real.

    Just heard about this. I had to interrupt my cigar and off-season life just to come here and see if idiots were freaking out about this "blown out of context" salute.

    Yep.

    General saluted first, AFTER Trump offered his hand.



    Anything to make Trump look bad. As long as it's out of spite, it's okay.....that's the Liberal way.

    "Worried"? No. Concerned that the Emotions Brigade is going to win in the mid-terms? Slightly.
