Donald Trump performs double fist pump as he arrives at 9/11 memorial service to honour Flight 93 victims

Image sparks immediate backlash over how inappropriate many see such an arrival on a day the president should be playing the role of consoler-in-chief

1. inappropriate behavior

The definition of inappropriate is someone or something that is not within the bounds of what is
considered appropriate or socially acceptable.

Wearing a cheerful and revealing outfit to a somber funeral is an example of wearing something inappropriate.

He has no concept that it rises above any individual and is about the collective pain and destruction brought upon the world that day. It is a moment to reflect on the sorrow and loss. It is not about him or any attention he thinks it will bring to him. But he is too messed up in his head to realize that so he does something completely inappropriate and truly believes it is okay. The look on Melania’s face says something different and maybe later she can explain to him (with the aid of this photograph) why he needs to curb the impulse to do that again. It is doubtful he will understand or accept her advice. 😢

what a sick ass jerk he is.

was he commenting on how on that day he saw Muslims celebrating when the towers went down, anyone remember that stupid comment?? also he never gave no monetary contribution to anyone during that horrible day.

He needs to go soon. Exit the People's house please and take your supporters and the GOP with you. Just leave please, you have caused enough damage to the country and people just fucking hate you.

Oh wait! What? Oh that’s right! President Obama never did any such thing!

Trump wants everyone to think that if he had been on flight 93 he would have been THE leader in bringing that plane down. Because he’s more macho!
