Respect for the POTUS

For all of you on here crying about Trump not getting respect. Did you show Obama respect at the Clemson game or did you show your ### by booing?
In an email with the subject line, “Dear Clemson Family: Focus on Positive Dialogue and a Civil Discourse,” Clemson University president James Barker addressed the behavior at the football game.

President Obama booed during Clemson game
CLEMSON, S.C. — The president of Clemson University is chastising those who booed President Barack Obama during the college’s Military Appreciation Day at last weekend's game. During the university’s annual event that was held this year during the Clemson vs. Virginia Tech game on Saturday, a ceremony was held to induct ROTC cadets into the military.
Advertisement The ceremony was disrupted by booing from some fans in the stands. In an email with the subject line, “Dear Clemson Family: Focus on Positive Dialogue and a Civil Discourse,” Clemson University president James Barker addressed the behavior at the football game. He wrote: “Saturday’s football game marked Clemson’s annual observance of Military Appreciation Day, a time when we pay tribute to veterans, men and women currently serving and those who gave their lives to protect us. Clemson has a strong military heritage, and this day is always a special occasion. “Unfortunately, the day was marred by bad behavior from some fans. During the ceremony inducting ROTC cadets into the military, a number of fans booed during the section of the oath they take to obey the President of the United States. “I understand that we are in the home stretch of a heated presidential election and that freedom of speech is a right which makes our country great. Regardless of one’s political leanings, however, this ceremony was a sacred moment to the recruits, their families, and many others in attendance. Many Clemson people have contacted me to express their sadness and disappointment at this public display of disrespect for the office of the President and the young people taking a solemn oath that day. I share those sentiments.

Pointing out hypocrisy in a Positive Dialogue sort of way? People are actually proud of their whataboutism now?

I posted a link to an article about it, what more do you want? People like yourself are tone deaf, you only believe what you want to believe. Did you defend our President during the booing or join in with your fellow Clemson fans?

Everyone in the stadium booed?
Yea that is what I thought you are trying to make statements about people that you dont know. I didnt boo Obama. I didnt like him but I didnt boo him. I also am not attacking Trump even though I dont like him.

And how is this positive dialogue? Reads like "anything you can do, I can do better".

Lucky for us, our coaches and admin in no way resemble most Clemson fans you see on this site.

Yeah, but Obama was a secret Muslim from Kenya and really hated America. Trump is a hero who is selfless and just wants to make America great again. Did I do it right? Seriously though, I thought Trump did a great job yesterday. I thought it was great.
