Sadly this may be a stupid but legal order instead of a stupid and illegal order.

Saluting them is a thing Presidents rarely did before W Bush and something they should stop doing.

Reagan started it

According to an article on the internet...

quote:

Reagan explained his decision a few years later in remarks to U.S. service members and their families stationed in Iceland:

“I can’t resist telling you a little story that I’ve just told the marine guard at the Embassy. The story has to do with saluting. I was a second lieutenant of horse cavalry back in the World War II days. As I told the admiral, I wound up flying a desk for the Army Air Force. And so, I know all the rules about not saluting in civilian clothes and so forth, and when you should or shouldn’t. But then when I got this job and I would be approaching Air Force One or Marine One and those Marines would come to a salute and I — knowing that I am in civilian clothes — I would nod and say hello and think they could drop their hand, and they wouldn’t. They just stood there. So, one night over at the Marine Commandant’s quarters in Washington, and I was getting a couple of highballs, and I didn’t know what to do with them. So, I said to the Commandant, I said, ‘Look, I know all the rules about saluting in civilian clothes and all, but if I am the Commander in Chief, there ought to be a regulation that would permit me to return a salute.’ And I heard some words of wisdom. He said, ‘I think if you did, no one would say anything.’

“So, if you see me on television and I’m saluting, you know that I’ve got authority for it now — and I do it happily.”

Didn't Carter, HW or Clinton that said the salutes and "hail to the chief" were the most obnoxious parts of being president?

i mean yeah, it was a giant game of kick the can. and despite being a giant slave owning piece of poo poo. jackson probaly would have gone to war with the south if it seceded. i mean south carolina almost did, and he threatened battleships and invasion. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nullification_Crisis

this would've been better because jackson would've burned south carolina and georgia to the ground
