Trump Plans $92 Million Military Parade—Honoring Himself

Donald Trump may finally get his long-desired military parade through the streets of Washington.

The Washington City Paper, citing an unnamed D.C. source, reports that the president has chosen June 14, 2025—the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army, Flag Day, and coincidentally also his own 79th birthday—as the big day. If it goes ahead, the four-mile procession would go from the Pentagon in Arlington to the White House.

Seven years ago, Trump made his desire for a grand military parade well known after he saw a French parade in 2017, telling people at the time, “We’re going to have to try and top it.” But the idea got a lot of pushback from military leaders as well the D.C. government, who estimated that it would cost the military $92 million and the district over $21 million in public safety costs.

Cool. Are you going Guano?

This kind parade would be more appropriate in honoring Trump for his birthday and would not cost 92 million dollars either?!!

The early 1920s were the gilded age for the Ku Klux Klan, as many successful and powerful people were either openly Klansmen or sympathetic to the cause.

The organization boasted a membership of 3 million nationwide, including prominent community leaders from coast to coast.

The growth was fueled by the 1915 release of the silent film Birth of a Nation, which portrayed members as heroes, coinciding with the widespread xenophobia following the devastation of World War I.

Why? Those are all Democrats...
 
Trump said he liked the people that weren't captured. Was that honoring our brave veteran POW's?
That's not what he said. Trump was referring to people calling John McCain as being a hero. McCain was no hero for
being captured. I saved my point man Platoon member from certain death by warning him that he was about to walk
into a partially covered mine trip wire that I was able to see before he did. What I did there to save a life could be
reason enough for me to be considered a hero, but people calling McCain a hero is just plain idiotic.

Never heard McCain's whole story, eh?
