Ever notice the salute of "dear leader?" All officers that are in the same photo or video of 'dear leader" have a recognizable hand salute. The fingers (officers) are aligned and meet either the eyebrow or the headcover brim. KJU's salute doesn't come close. Somewhere near a Roman salute ala Hollywood and maybe a fascist gesture. Is it a physical limitation or is it contrived?

Interesting. I don't know. Are you sure it isn't just the photo. Have you seen his full salute in video? If that is how he salutes all the time then I wonder if that is how his father saluted? Maybe it is protocol. Like in Japanese culture the younger or "less important" person usually would bow further than the elder or subordinate.

Something tells me that "dear leader" does not view himself as "less important" than anyone anywhere! :)

Much like our "dear leader!"
 
Looks like his dad did it too so I think that is just how it is done there by Dear Leader.
