Military site [URL='http://taskandpurpose.com/president-trump-no-idea-evening-colors-started/'][U]Task and Purpose[/U][/URL] was the first to notice Trump sitting during the song. According to Task and Purpose, uniformed service members are required to stop what they're doing and salute the flag as its lowered during the song while civilians are required to place their hand over their heart. Trump not only does not stand or place his hand over his heart, but instead talks through the song and assumes it's being played to honor him or Hannity. People watching the rally can be seen standing for the song in the background of Trump's interview but Trump seems to not know what the song means. "Are they playing that for you or for me?" Trump joked to Hannity. "They're playing that in honor of his ratings. He's beating everybody."

Although this President received 5 deferrals to avoid military service during the Vietnam War, he did attend the New York Military Academy which one would assume conducted the flag-lowering ceremony on a daily basis!
