It is no secret that President Donald Trump is a bird of a different feather. The man marches to the beat of his own drummer so to speak. This was true in his personal/business life prior to winning the highest seat in the land and it is true after becoming president. Today, President Trump broke another tradition and it is getting people in an ire already across social media.
President Donald Trump boarded Air Force One today from Joint Base Andrews. His destination was Philadelphia for the 2017 GOP retreat where he will be speaking. Traditionally, at least since the late President John F. Kennedy, the president has turned to wave at the press prior to disappearing into Air Force One. President Donald Trump did not do this.
The President of the United States instead simply kept walking when he reached the top of the loading platform, made a right once inside then out of site. Doesn't see like a big deal, right?
Well, it is if you are one of the pundits that feel Trump is not qualified to be the president. On Twitter there are a lot of upset people that feel Trump should be impeached, reprimanded, etc because he did not turn around and wave to the press.
For many of us that have followed Trump and his climb to the most powerful man in the world, this is no surprise. The press, in general, has not been kind to him. That is putting things lightly.
Me personally, I am more concerned with his policies and actions in office than I am over him waving to the press or not.
