So you posted some images capturing a salute in one moment n time.

Unless things have changed, post a link to a source that says returning or saluting the military is required by the VP.
In an earlier link I provided one source that says it is not. While it is a tradition, it is not required.
 
She continues the behavior

Vice President Kamala Harris is going through criticism for showing to interrupt with precedent and failing to salute the respect guard when boarding Air Drive Two.

Video reviewed by Fox Information confirmed that her predecessors, former Vice President Mike Pence and President Biden, usually saluted the respect guard in the identical state of affairs.

If she salutes critics will say she is usurping/anticipating the role of the president.

Who ever said it was required? I sure didn’t. I asked why she doesn’t return salutes. It’s a common courtesy she’s not interested in doing.

You would have to ask her.
Why did President Trump do improper salutes? Was it his way of giving the finger to the military?
Seems to me if you are going to salute, do it properly.

Maybe the media will ask her. She might start laughing though.
 
You mean the Americans who honor and respect our military rather than the ones that force them to bivouac in parking structures? We know which grown Harris belongs to.

If you take parking lot bivouacs away from the National Guard, they'll have no claim to being hardcore. Tents in parking lots is as tough as it gets in the Guard. It's basically summer camp for grown ups and, once or twice per year, you sleep in a tent.

They can handle it. I, as well, am in the camp that says soldiers can sleep in parking lots. They're tough enough.
 
Yaay, more fauxrage! It's not like over 800 people died from COVID yesterday.

In case no one bothered to look it up...


 
No, I said you are spreading lies. Others have posted the evidence that they are lies. If you believe your allegations, post the evidence - find anyone backing up the claim Trump offered up his hotel to house the thousands of troops in D.C., mostly because of the threat of MAGA terrorists doing more terrorizing. I'm sure I don't need to stay up waiting on that. Roughly none of that story was true. Biden addressed any conditions left over from the administration of your Dear Leader immediately. None of the troops stayed in the Trump Hotel, and no one has any evidence of an actual offer being made, because 'the troops' all had hotel rooms already and didn't need to stay in Trump's hotel.
LOL, I think I’d prefer to just let your little hissy fit fade into obscurity.

The VP is a civilian, and thus doesn't salute. Pence and Biden were just want-to-be's. Now President Biden can salute with authority.
 
When Trump found out he offered to put them up, cost free in his hotel
They already had hotel rooms. That aside, why on earth did the CiC allow this to happen to his NG. Offer to put them up in his hotels? What BS is that....he was in charge.

Why were they sleeping in the parking structure then? I seriously doubt that he thought the NG chain of command would furnish such terrible accomodations to their troops; when he found out he offered his hotel. Oh, and notice the date on this story
 
It's not necessary, and quite frankly, I'd just as well have her not do it. There is no honor or respect there.

I can find pics of Cheney and Quayle saluting too
 
Why were they sleeping in the parking structure then?
They weren't. They all had hotel rooms, that according to the NG commander. They were relegated to the parking garage for their breaks, and that was wrong, some napped on their breaks but that was not their sleeping accommodations.
 
The President is CiC and as such saluting is appropriate. Someone who has never served and has no position of authority with the armed forces would just be obnoxious and arrogant....and if she did the right would be quick to point that out.

Source? Doesn’t jive with any of the major news sources.

I mean, my god, isn't Fox news a news station? is it news drought in the US? larval and frivolous
 
I do...either with word or action.

And I am a Vet.
Thank you for your service Mycroft. It's good to know that you do have at least one shot at moral redemption, (but I am still tempted to ask to see your DD214.)

They were taking breaks during their 12 hour shifts. They had hotels for the other 12 hours.

How about the National Guard Bureau?

The USCP and the National Guard have coordinated their efforts to ensure that National Guardsmen and women are stationed throughout the Capitol Complex are in appropriate spaces within Congressional buildings, including the U.S. Capitol, where they may take on-duty breaks. Off-duty troops are being housed in hotel rooms or other comfortable accommodations.

She is not in the military and should not salute.

Oh she’s so much more smart than the previous VP’s who did salute out of common curtesy. She’s a disgrace.
