ReplyDeletehoot and holler sure... clap? Not that I have seen or heard.
ReplyDeletenot that I frequent the establishments though.
in the army we used to say you are not a man till you get the clap
ReplyDeleteIt makes sense, actually. Pence is an obscenity.
ReplyDeleteCNN reported it, nough said, more fake news from them.
ReplyDeleteI was told to clap like i saw VP Pence rally at a strip club.
ReplyDeleteWeird.
Its takes a stern and creative Chief Petty Officer to coax 7am enthusiasm out of a bunch of 19 year old sailors.
ReplyDeleteIt's common practice - like literally 100% all the time this is told to service men and women.
ReplyDeleteBUT, people are disrespecting this administration so much so that they are making a story out of this nothing burger. And all lefties join in and go "wow , this is so crazy". No, it's not. It's just that CNN and MSNBC didn't report on it during the Obama times - people were told ALL the time to clap for Obama as he was deeply unpopular with the armed forces. But very popular with the media. It's the same again and again and the leftist mind is so easily manipulated
You should have seen the email that went out to everyone in the USAF (late 2016/early 2017) soliciting congratulatory/thank you messages of farewell for President Obama. It was made clear that only positive messages were welcome.
