How very appropriate.

trump did not trust his "hair" to cover up his balding head and so wore a baseball cap to this ceremony. trump put his personal appearance over the honoring of these troops

Donald Trump came under fire on Saturday for his behavior during a solemn moment in which six fallen soldiers killed in the president's onslaught against Iran were honored.
The president was seen during the event standing upright while others bowed their heads. He was also wearing a white baseball cap during the typically solemn event, which was broadcast in complete silence on CNN.
That Trump behavior didn't sit well with numerous analysts, including Assistant Watergate prosecutor Jill Wine-Banks, who wrote, "Head unbowed and baseball cap in white. Total disrespect."

If it were up to him; he would not have been there.
Optics.
He was there to be seen; nothing more.

They mean nothing to him. To paraphrase him in 2017, "They knew what they signed up for".

He has skin cancer on his bald spot?
