Apparently there were 1,302 cadets and they were expecting about 1,000, so, 1,000 more or less. I'm sure after salute 498 it was starting to feel like much more, lol.
Could you imagine if Obama had ragged on an Army General like that, painting him is a aloof and out of touch, and blaming the general for his own frailities. OMG, Fox news would explode if Obama had disrespected Westpoint like that.
You guys keep using the "he was joking" excuse.
You think 120k dead Americans is a joke
You think that propogating military incompetence is a joke
You think mocking the handicap is a joke
You think telling uneducated people that injecting chemicals can cure their lungs is a joke
Say what you will about Obama, and really about any POTUS in the last 50 years. Like them, don't like them, but NONE of them felt that our country, our citizens, our military, or our national security was a joke.

i don't doubt that.
i'm curious if this has been the standard when a POTUS addresses west point grads or if this was a one-off. my guess would have been a single held salute by the POTUS during a procession but..... obviously wasn't the case this time.
When someone posts something about Biden it must be because the Trumpers are scared...well, by their own logic, the myriad of silly anti-Trump threads must mean they are petrified!
Dumb arse Trump should have realized he didn't have to salute the grads. There is no requirement for the president to salute the grads. Rather, the grads are required to do the saluting.
Trump is too dumb to realize this. Even when his arm got tired, he was too dumb to realize that all he had to do was STOP saluting and continue with the rest of the program. So he kept....on...saluting. Trump can't even think on his feet to make a simple decision about saluting.
Talk about missing the point. Your president, during his Great American Comeback Celebration (that's the campaign's term), spent 10 minutes of the audience's time on making excuses for having trouble walking on a ramp, before drinking a glass of water one-handed, to thundering applause. That's the great comeback speech?
But are there hats saying GACC - complete with a retching emoji?That pretty much sums up my thoughts for the past 3 years..GACC!
No doubt Trump can be a baffoon. I would still rather him as president.....then creepy Uncle Joe.....who dosen`t know where he is half the time. Plus we all know Biden would be president in name only. His VP, would be running the show. The Dems don`t care who, as long as it`s a black women.
