Trump wants a Military Parade . .

Trump is trolling the democrats. He's pitiful. But also funny.

He's certainly the best source to comedians around the World . .

It's not our El Presidente wanting to salute the military, he wants the military to salute him . . that's his real desire. The cost of a parade would be enormous, if, tanks were included, the streets of DC would get torn to shreds . . and I'd bet (wait, thats a bad word around here, sorry Nukkee) that the Parade route goes right by the Trump Hotel . . ;)

Nope. The J Edgar Hoover building.

Oh God, I pray it so, there'll certainly be a lot of these signs plastered all over the building, rooftop and the lawn :

Lol this reminds me of the stupid person on Facebook comment sections who tries to say they're just "trolling" after they make themselves look stupid.

The idea of a parade seems stupid, wasteful and useless to me, but I'm not understanding why I should be outraged.
From what I have read he was very impressed with the military parade that was held in France(of all places) and said he'd like to honor our military the same way. I had to use the interwebz to find it because I haven't heard anything about it.
 
I don't see the point either, but there's many things that Washington does that I don't see the point.
Trump does a lot of shit to troll/piss off liberals because he knows it will excite his base. Just another president who refuses to be a uniter. I kind of thought he was going to tone down all the silly shit after he gave a great acceptance speech. He was very thoughtful and poised. Oh well.

How many other presidents Have Not pandered to their base. In your lifetime which ones have been uniters?

I'm not sure I would consider the Bastille Day parade the same as doing something like this. That's been going on for over 100 years and celebrates the turning point of the French Revolution. I guess if he were to do it on July 4th that might make some sense, but it still seems pointless to me.

I totally agree with what you are saying here, but you know Trump, he's got to try to do it bigger and better. I don't think it will happen.
 
This is why many folks are outraged .

From the article linked:

“Donald Trump has continually shown himself to have authoritarian tendencies, and this is just another worrisome example,” his barrage opens. He was just getting warmed up.

“For someone who just declared it was ‘treasonous’ to not applaud him, and for someone who has, in the past, admired tactics of everyone from Saddam Hussein to Vladimir Putin, it is clear that a military parade isn’t about saluting the military – it’s about making a display of the military saluting him.”

“The military is not Donald Trump’s to use and abuse in this way,” Eaton’s statement continues. “Our military is the very best in the world – they are not the be reduced to stagecraft to prop up Donald Trump’s image.”

“Any commander in chief who respects the traditions of the military would understand that. Unfortunately, we do not have a commander in chief, right now, as much as we have a wannabe banana republic strongman.”

~ Retired Army Major General Paul D. Eaton

Agreed.

Had France's Bastille day Parade not have been an ongoing tradition since 1880, Then they wouldn't be starting this up in 2018 . .

In my lifetime, none really. Clinton was pretty close.

Trump's pandering, however, has proved to be the most divisive of maybe any President ever.

I don't necessarily disagree with what that guy says, but it's hard for me to get outraged by it. Maybe it's because I've resigned myself to the fact that Trump is going to do/say stupid stuff, so it doesn't bother me anymore.

Trump is Trump. I like the policy Trump much more than the Twitter Trump. The media hates Trump so badly that they are accomplices in the division. Obama was just as bad, Connecticut police, Travon Martin, Ferguson, Baltimore.....He just had the media blowing him at every turn. The media was Obama's Monica.
 
If you won't change your hairstyle in 40+ years, that's a good indicator that little else about you has changed, or is likely to have changed.

I'd be curious as to what his feelings were about Russia back then . . that's prolly changed, a lot.

Cool video tho . .
 
Maybe he'll have some of those giant placards and banners waving, like Mao and Stalin and Lenin used to have.

I'd love it if he started wearing some honorary uniform!
