I wouldn’t mind seeing a Russian parade. They do a parade to mark the sacrifices Russians made in WW2. I don’t know how they do it. Such precision. I was in a marching corps and it was all about precision. No corps ever looked like the Russians, even the national champions. No one ever looked like American troops either luckily.

I’m late to this thread-what’s the consensus on why there was such a left shark vibe of the marching?

Wait, no one sang him happy birthday at this thing, did they??

Yeah they did

From Hollywood? But Hollywood is full of liberals...and Jewish people and gay people!! The shock. The horror. /s

That was an expensive laugh, but yay Army for expressing absolute apathy and misery with every bit of their body language.

Fox added the cheers BTW. It was pretty quiet in real life.

Army recruitment is at a record low so I guess this was one big advertisement.

Actually it started surging last fall, up from record lows under President Autopen. When it became clear that America wanted Trump back in the White House, young people started joining up again.

But don’t take my word for it.

Actually, many of the programs to increase recruiting were done under Biden. They are starting to take shape.

Wow. She can no longer fake it. She tries, but fails every time.

She’s been doing this facial expression for 10 years. Obligatory smile immediately followed with grimace. 1st term inauguration to present. Can’t find the short clip when he accentuated Pwwertto Reeko. She was deadpanned. Couple of chuckles from audience. Quick smile. He said it again. She looked at him like this 😳. YouTube scrubbed a lot of them.

Russians trolling Trump's parade. Comedy gold. Be sure to watch with the volume on.

Yes, the parade was a bust. Empty stands and a bunch of maggots wearing their MAGA garb. Soooo tacky.

The no king parades were much more fun, festive and united. Now, we need to go out and VOTE!!!
