[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OMG this is so dictator-y to have a parade for one's birthday in the first place[/quote]

The 250th birthday of the US Army seems like a big deal to a lot of people and many are glad it is being appropriately recognized.  There are actually almost 3 weeks of events with the parade being just one event.  [/quote]

It IS a big deal. Too bad that Trump is co-opting the Army’s planned celebrations to do something very different centering himself. [/quote]

I mean, the guy canceled his own inauguration parade.  Who does that?  Seems like this is legitimately more about celebrating the Army.  [/quote]

You mean the one he “canceled” because it was too cold for him outside— so he could stay inside where it was warm — instead of mingling with his people? That one?  To answer your “Who does that?” question, someone who cares more about his own comfort than that of the supporters waiting outside in the cold.  [/quote]

Narrators voice:  The Presidential parade box is heated…[/quote]
