At the direction of the president, Pentagon generals have begun planning a grand parade on the streets of the U.S. capital to showcase American military might.
Kim jung trump not gonna get a bigger one, we’ll see 'em.
What I’m going to enjoy is the sight of the completely destroyed street in the wake of all those tanks and such.
Maybe one of those tanks will accidentally run over the reviewing stand. 2 times.
I want to see massive protests in the streets during this shit show. Maybe some old ladies holding shopping bags standing in front of a tank. Effigies of Donald burned all over DC. Just when you can’t think this dumb fuck can’t outdo himself, he does.
That’s interesting. I wonder how trump would react. Would he order the tanks to run them over?
Order all he wants, the crew is not going to murder innocent women in an American street.
Is this actually dumber than claiming that HRC got millions of illegal votes? Tough call.
Will the Kremlin be analyzing pictures of the reviewing stand, where everyone is standing and their proximity to Il Douche?
Then Trump will fire them and find someone who will!
I’m slightly of 2 minds on this question. Just slightly.
On the one hand…who doesn’t love a parade? And doesn’t everybody want to support our military? And tanks are cool! And flyovers are cool!!
On the other:
It’s a freaking waste of taxpayer money.
It’s not to honor the military, it’s to feed Trump’s ego.
Countries that hold military parades fall into 2 groups: dictatorships, and France. Not sure we want to be in either.
We don’t do that kinda thing here in the US of A. We prefer to keep our weapons holstered until needed.
Hey, if cheetoid wants the country to look like, and be, a banana republic, let it be one. No, no, I’m serious. What’s one thing banana republics are (in)famous for? Coup d’état! Congress isn’t going to remove the jackass in the White House. Let’s do it with a parade.
This is all it’s about. It’s all anything his presidency is about. It’s all trump has been about for his entire life.
The essential ingredient here is statues and giant posters of Trump all along the parade route, in case there’s any lingering doubt about just what this is supposed to be celebrating. And BTW, Monty, my crack about the US turning into a banana republic in the other thread wasn’t plagiarizing your remark, it was my own thought, but such an obvious one.
No problem. GMTA, after all.
p.s. I’m wondering if Trump even knows U.S. military units are required to display his photo on the chain of command gallery.
Is it possible to find gold lamé uniforms?
Something like this? Or is that the stable of future Trump brides?
The problem is, all that would play into his hands.
GOPFOX like to frame a lot of topics as “Either you are with us, or you’re anti-military. The guys kneeling at football games are, like, spitting in the face of one of the Iwo Jima flag guys”.
People protesting the parade would just give them more excuse to throw out the rule of law while claiming they are trying to protect america.
In terms of the goals of trump and his cronies, this might be his first smart move.
