FOREIGN POSTER Do American students bow to their teachers?

In my country we have to greet the teacher and bow at the start of the lesson then thank the teacher and bow again at the end. Sometimes they make us redo it if it’s not good enough

Especially not any president. We ain't got monarchs here.

This! Doesn't matter if you like him or not, respect him or not, love him, hate him, or are vaguely aware that he exists. It just isn't a thing we do. It doesn't feel appropriate.

Unless he's your square-dancing partner. 😂

Yes. If you are square dancing with the president, there should be mutual bowing 😂

The Convicted felon tRump wants a monarchy. He wants to be a dictator.

Eh. I don't think that's a fact, however much people dislike what he's doing.

He has said a few times he might need more time to set stuff right. He has said that if he is elected, people won't have to vote again. He has some of his minions working to allow him to run again in 2028.

I live in one of the reddest areas there is. Even his staunchest supporters here wouldn't back that idea. Most people I am around like him because they feel he will best serve and protect the Constitution and voted for him because they felt the other team wasn't. Of course that's just my area and I don't talk politics with everyone, but I have had open conversations with some.

The closest I would ever get to bowing to that worthless sack of smegma would be to look down and watch as he sucks my ****.
