Donald Trump is criticized for not bowing to soldiers

When Donald Trump was there to honor fallen American soldiers, the ceremony did not turn out as many had imagined.
The Trump administration showed its respect and bowed to the soldiers.
But the president did not, who now receives a lot of criticism, writes the British Mirror.

Donald Trump is again in windy weather. During the week, the US president attended a solemn ceremony at an air base in Delaware. Four American servicemen lost their lives in the Middle East. When the coffins with their bodies returned to American soil, Trump and his administration received them.

In addition to the president himself, there were also Defense Minister Peter Hegseth and General Dan Caine, Chairman of the Defense Staff. At emotional ceremonies like this, it is tradition for the president and his administration to bow respectfully in front of the coffins to honor their memory and deed.

Earlier in the day, Trump addressed the press before boarding Air Force One and said he would attend the worthy ceremony to ”honor our heroes”.
”It's one of the hardest things to do, for me it's one of the hardest things to do as president, but it has to be done”, Trump told reporters, who asked what he would say to the families of the young soldiers who gave their lives in his war in the Middle East.

Donald Trump did not bow to dead soldiers

But during this week's ceremony, Donald Trump neglected to do this. It is British Mirror who reports how the president's administration stood with bowed heads and bowed according to tradition to show respect. However, Trump did not do this, which is now receiving sharp criticism.

On social media, Trump's actions are singled out as cold and disrespectful.
”No insight. No respect. The man is a confused puppet”, wrote a user commenting on the photo. Another added: ”Can't he even bend his head?”.
