Has anyone seen how trump*'s Islamophobic fan base is taking his curtsy to King Salman?

I don't know how their thought processes actually function but I suspect it takes a whole lot of compartmentalization and bizzaro world rationalizations.

I can't get too upset about a modest bow when receiving a participation medal from the Saudi King. But a curtsy? That's just embarrassing.

And Repubs made such a big deal out of that during the campaign.

I guess they've all changed their minds?
