Title: Cap'n America! Courteous Trump puts hat on Marine after wind blows it off

In a light moment, Trump retrieved a Marine's hat that was blown off by the wind before chasing after the cap when it flew off for the second time.

Trump seemed to be in high spirits after he returned home from the G20 summit in Germany, clapping his hands as he approached Marine One in Maryland on Saturday.

While the president was walking towards the aircraft, a Marine who was guarding the helicopter had his hat fly off.

Trump bent over and placed the hat back on the serviceman's head but the cap went flying once more, sending Trump and his military escort chasing after it.

The gesture was commended by CNN, despite the known tensions between the news outlet and the president.

Oh wow, what a kind and honorable man. That completely changes my mind about him. This totally erases all his sexism, racism, xenophobia, sexual assaults, attacks on the poor, mocking the disabled, ridiculing a POW, scapegoating the vulnerable, and likely collusion with Russia.

When Trump took pursuit of that Marine's hat, deep down in my heart, I knew that is when he became President of the United States.

I'm pretty happy that the president did this. It's a stark contrast from saluting a marine with a coffee cup

It's also such a stark contrast from a president that would want to grab women by the pussy.
Oh wait .....

Trump literally had to be reminded by Melania to cover his heart in the national anthem.

It's okay. The cult mentality goes on.

The reactions to your comment got me wondering about how hard it is to be a Republican (or at least a Trump supporter) on this site. I think I'll make a thread about that actually.

Honestly, it's better if you go into these threads prepared for the jumping of throats.

Your comment included more than just a simple "compliment."
And THAT IS WHY you got the responses you did.
Thus, if you want to be a smart-ass with your comments, then expect others to respond in where you little feelings may be hurt.
.... Get over it.

The people who hang onto every little mistake Obama made years ago are the same people who think Trump is treated unfairly.

About as relevant as the handshake-gate with the Polish First Lady. Not that that will stop partisans from trying to make something of it.

Dude. One person commented on your compliment. You're getting piss because you're parroting nonsense.

Trump supports the military, and the military voted for Trump over the loser who thinks our military is full of deplorables.

Isn't Trump's approval under water with military voters at the moment?

Polls are only true if he likes the results.
