Maskless and late, Trump keeps veterans waiting in rain, oblivious of significance of time of event

...the cermony marking the anniversary of the 1918 end of World War I is always to begin at exactly 11:00 a.m. on the 11th day of the 11th month. This isn't the first time Trump has been late to the commencement.

POTUS has nothing else on sched today but is nonetheless late to Arlington National Cemetery to honor veterans on Veterans Day, keeping decorated veterans, their families, and others waiting in the rain, not understanding the significance of the day, hour, minute of commemoration

...stayed 7 minutes less than last time.

When kneeling had always been a sign of respect in other circumstances until the moment Donnie declared it otherwise.

Meanwhile donnie commemorates the eleventh minute after the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month of the eleventh year... by missing the key moment....

Will the right wing acknowledge how disrespectful that is?

Not a chance.
