Do you also think that's disrespectful?

Trump:
Agreeing to show up, and then showed up late, and then completely ignoring the royal protocol.
Prince Charles / William:
Indicated in advanced that they will not show. Then they did not show up.
Gee... really makes me wonder who is more disrespectful here?

Don't remember hearing any republicans squawking about that.

The (not) bowing / curtsy wasn't really the big deal. The really rude thing to do was to walk in front of the Queen when they were supposed to walk together to conduct the Royal Guard inspection / ceremony. Walking in front of the Queen during an official event? Seriously? When paying official visits to the Queen, the Prime Minister of the UK exits the room by walking backwards so as to not show his/her back to the Queen.
And what did Trump do again?
