Putin doesn’t need to watch or be fearful. He has proven time and again, that he owns Trump. If you think about it Xi proved he owns Trump economically as well. That’s the sad part. This parade isn’t even worth it from a military propaganda point of view…

Military Parade in Capital on Trump’s Birthday Could Cost $45 Million, Officials Say
The parade is scheduled for June 14, the date of the Army’s 250th anniversary, and is billed as the “Army’s birthday celebration.” President Trump turns 79 that day.

A military parade planned for next month could cost up to $45 million and is expected to include up to two dozen M1 Abrams tanks rolling through the streets of Washington, two defense officials said Thursday.

The parade, according to the Army’s website, will be held on June 14, which is both the date of the Army’s 250th anniversary and President Trump’s 79th birthday.

The officials who spoke about the costs said that the estimate, previously reported by Reuters, did not include the cleanup or repairs from damage to Washington’s roads from the tank traffic. They spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss internal planning


$45 million ? Not a big deal; just check under the couch cushions of the gifted plane from Qatar.


The Army already said it would pay if there is any road damage. Stop with the fear mongering.


Where do you think the Army gets its money? Thr taxpayers will be paying for it and I'm also sure there will be some EO banning fixing DC's roads if they don't add Trump worship to the school curriculum or ban fluoride or some similar garbage.

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.


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


Ultimately, this is the problem. What was once purely a celebration of a venerable and great institution has been coopted by Trump to celebrate his birthday.
And even if his birthday celebration becomes muted, the damage is done. Most self aware people (even the most narcissistic of politicians) would have intuitively known that that an integrating a personal birthday in the middle of such a great anniversary would detract from the whole celebration. Tactless.


Just keep reminding yourself that it is also Che Guevara’s birthday that day. That should make you feel more comfortable.


I’m sure that he’d be one of trumps idols if trump knew how to read.

They both loved to demonize and attack of political opponents and advocated for armed conflict, both terrorists in their own way. Both of their views on violent revolution and rejection of democratic processes are authoritarian.

Actually, it’s quite fitting that they have the same birthday. One has a beret and the other has a ridiculous red hat like a little league player, but very strangely similar. They both REALLY love(d) propaganda and silly slogans.

Thanks for pointing this out.

Any bets on who will be on the grandstand and where? That's quite telling in China and Russia.
Vance, Musk, Boer farmers, family of that shot Jan 6 woman, House and Senate GOP shoved back to 3rd row.

An ad hominem fallacy is a type of logical fallacy where an argument attacks the person making the argument rather than the argument itself.
