I'm not sure having everyone disrespect the president by kneeling is the answer.

The point is to make those who disrespect the president look like the idiots they are. They already disrespect him, and we need to make normal Americans see how crazy they truly are.

Soooo confused. So, normal people will think those who intended to disrespect the president are actually respecting the president, yet in the disrespectors head, they know they no longer are disrespectful, but continue regardless?

In normal societies it's respectful to kneel before your king. The thought being that you show an act of submission towards them since it's difficult to attack from a kneeling stance before the king's protectors can retaliate from their normal standing stance.
