1. We already knew he didn't know the words to the anthem...

so this is not unexpected. Sad!!!

[tblue37]

34. Yep. He just swayed back & forth and tapped his hand on his chest like a bored, hyperactive

7-year-old. But he was standing, and apparently that is all that matters:

2. What an utter fake.

I really wanted to watch it, but neither CNN nor MSNBC carried it. Shit, I never thought of FOX.

[BigmanPigman]

3. The Un-American president.

[blogslut]

4. He is exactly from the generation that ahould know it by rote.

And yet he doesn't.

5. Such a freaking con

He just closes his mouth and nods to the parts he doesn't know!!

Such a joke

[Cha]

32. Fraud.

36. A ole pilikia!

No problem at all

6. It looks like a lot of government workers on a long lunch break.

Suit and ties? Casual dress? That reeks of football fans... not.

[Hugin]

13. I am awed by the number of minorities present...

Wait!

[gratuitous]

7. Why would he know the words to a song written by a Jewish immigrant?

One who changed his name, no less?

[VOX]

8. Imagine if President Obama's had done this...

The usual cretins would be frothing at the mouth for weeks. They’d probably start a committee to investigate, because as the RW-ers are fond of saying, “the American people deserve to know the truth!” (Note the crossed fingers behind their backs as this line is uttered.)

19. Obama? Articles of Impeachment from GOP congress posthaste.

Meanwhile, there is NO offense or crime this poseur can commit (and has committed) for which those traitors will lift a finger.

9. Here's a twitter link that shows more of his performance in a tighter shot:

(Btw, it’s no longer “God Bless America”, but “To the Prairies”, far as I’m concerned)

holy schnikes man

10. The event today makes me wonder.

Will the military refuse an order by Trump to attack Americans if Trump paints that order in the color of the flag? Once he loses office, will he go quietly, or will he try to use the military to hold on? Really serious stuff.

11. Seriously it's like we elected Frank Drebin!

[smirkymonkey]

14. Yes, exactly! At least they both had a similar grip on the National Anthem.

Frank Drebin was much more competent and likeable, however.

[Mc Mike]

23. The most hilarious part was when the bound and gagged Pallazo

was screaming through his gag, as the chyron identified Drebbin as Palazzo, while he was mauling the song.

Nothing funny about that bloated treasonous hemorrhoid pretending he's America, while he's too stupid and sucky to even bother to know the song, but Drebbin/Palazzo makes things a bit better.

[Initech]

24. HEY IT'S ENRICO PALAZZO!!!!!

[Cha]

33. But we didn't "elect" him.. he was Rigged in by

Russians.

I think we know enough to be able to say that.

12. What we in the UK call a "John Redwood" moment

15. TBH I don't know the words either

It's not a song I normally listen to or sing

[OldHippieChick]

16. Why was this event being held?

What did I miss? Was this just a Trump event to watch the shiny coin?

[irisblue]

20. Replacement for the Superbowl winning Eagles not going to the WH

trump was peeved that most of the players weren't coming, he uninvited them, and this mess was arraigned.

[underpants]

28. 4th of July? Pffft Trump wants his own BEST day to celebrate America

[dalton99a]

17. Because the shithole is a fraud.

[Donkees]

18. Trump's "God Bless America" set to the Curb Your Enthusiasm Theme Song

26. OK I need a new monitor!

[demtenjeep]

21. looked like he said "stand beside me"

exactly what a narcissist would say

[bluestarone]

22. The whole bunch are worthless pieces of shit!!!

All this for his fucking base!!!!

[Initech]

25. Oh we all need a laugh, and i laughed hard at this one!

I mean the holier and more patriotic than thou president can't get the words to God Bless America right! I'm not religious but I know the words to that song!

[Ilsa]

27. He's a self-absorbed idiot. nt

[John Fante]

29. Considering how sensitive Shithead is to criticism

it's remarkable how often he sets himself up to be mercilessly mocked.

He goes on and on about how scary sacred the fucking national anthem is... and he doesn't memorize the words to the stupid song!? WTF? This is propoganda 101.

What a bizarre asshole Trump is.

[Rhiannon12866]

30. Did he never go to school??

He doesn't seem to know the basic rudiments of American history - and we knew the words to that song when we sang it after the Pledge of Allegiance in the second grade.

[Cha]

31. Shocking. It's Fraud's "celebration" for a Divided

America event. Stupid MF.
