He did bend down to get the medal. THEN he curtsied.

But, yeah. He's an asshole. Likely a criminal.

Now, shouldn't you get on about Hunter?
No to worry. We have elected officilas looking into that now .
So a thread about Joe and you bring two posts about Don and Hunty.
How did you do in school?

So, now you are a member of the "Thread Purity Police*", eh? Did you get a badge, like Herschel?

Ah, now I've brought another name into the convo. Just call me a recidivist.

*You're sure gonna be busy policing all these threads.

Remember when trump using a fake edited photo mocked President Obama for supposedly bowing to the Saudi king and then said America will not bow to anyone again, that's why he curtsied instead.

Remember when he wanted to get rid of half the SPR in 2017 and retire 2 of the four facilities following a Heritage policy of completely getting rid of it over 3 years? What do you think would have happened if the D's hadn't blocked that one?
Now dig deeper for the reasons why stocking it from small suppliers wasn't going to work when oil was in free fall and would cost the suppliers more to shift to the spr than they would have earned.

No, you don't. What you remember is an RWNJ fairy tale. Not quite the same thing.
Even Fake News CNBC called it

The U.S. Senate's $2 trillion deal to respond to the coronavirus outbreak does not include $3 billion to fill up the nation's oil reserve, according to a letter from Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer to his colleagues.

The Trump administration requested $3 billion from Congress to purchase 77 million barrels of domestically produced crude oil to fill up the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, or SPR, which serves as the nation's emergency stash of oil. A version of the coronavirus bill from Senate Republicans included the funding, but Democrats said they have since removed that provision.

Schumer, D-N.Y., wrote in a March 25 letter to his colleagues that Democrats had "eliminated $3 billion bailout for big oil" from the final bill.
