The white voices of amerikkka

The one he wanted first term was 92 million. They could not justify the expense. But Donald never forgot his military parade. This one includes over 6,600 military personnel, over 50 aircraft and 150 vehicles. It is around 50 million projected, but that does not include building stands, civilian police and and the FBI and secret service people . It is a huge waste. It is something America does not do. But Trump is in office. It is not America anymore.

Show me how those figures were arrived at. I call bullshit on them.

At $92 million, it;s far cheaper than the billions spent on left wing propaganda taxpayers spend on PBS and othe media exclusively peddled by the Democratic Party.

It isn't $92 million. My bet is they included every sunk, indirect, and opportunity cost they could find no matter how tenuous with the real costs involved being a tiny fraction of that.

You and your peers need to flee America immediately, before its too late!!! you can camp out on Ellen's lawn there in Britain!

Wonder why the two white lezzies didn't flee to Africa or the ME? Don't they like black and Arab people???

You need to quit working for the overthrow of American values. Trump does not have to defend the Constitution. He does not care about laws and regulations. He is splitting America from our long-time allies, again. He was an embarrassment with Canadians today. He says so many stupid things. Why he appears in public, I cannot guess. It is always a disaster. Trump said countries are calling him up "kissing his ass for deals'. That is repulsive. He talks about talking to countries begging for deals. That comes after saying he signed 200 deals. That would mean all deals were already made. It seems none were.
He says our trade balance is bad with Canada. We have 10 times the population. That guarantees that the trade balance will favor them. They are selling to almost 400 million potential customers. Any 5 year old could tell you why the trade balances are not even. It is too difficult for Trump to understand though.

Probably not that much. Fuel for the vehicles, some security costs related to crowd control, etc., and stuff like that. Maybe 2 to 3 million... I could see maybe 5 at most. It certainly won't cost $90 million + That's just a bullshit SWAGPOOYA figure there.

So you don't mind spending $5M taxpayer dollars for Trump's vanity birthday parade. Awesome. Thanks for your guesses.

He spends a million bucks a weekend playing golf. No doubt MAGAts don't have a problem with waste, fraud and abuse when their dear leaders says it's okay.

That amount is fixed costs associated with security, an entourage, etc., and goes for any President today. If you have heartburn about it, did you when Biden did the same sorts of "vacation" things? How about Obama? Same thing, different president.

Yes, I did. While I understand the need for both security and vacation, I disagree with once a month much less every fucking weekend.

You act like I voted for Obama and Biden. This is a repetitive error on your part which I attribute to cognitive decline. It's why I forgive you. You see the world in stark black and white; your side and the enemy. There's no gray. No perspective other than your side is 100% right and everyone else is wrong. While I'm just an anonymous stranger on the Internet, I know that such mental issues cause problems with family and friends.

You need to quit pretending you're an American. Nobody gives a shit what left wing Canadians think any more then they need to care what any other deviants think.

Those soldiers and the equipment are already paid for and require maintenance whether they are used in parades or not. The only extra expense would be police overtime on traffic control and sundry other expenses.

But that isn;t what the assorted faggots and other deviants are sniveling about, it's the public display of patriotism they hate.

Fuel and other expendables, any additional stuff done to the vehicles and equipment to make them parade ready, that sort of thing count too.

Yes, maybe some banners and other sundry stuff. Selling memorables and what not can offset most of it. Some Veteran organizations can usually provide support as well.

Care to wager on this, Terry? You think the entire cost will be $5M. I say it's at least over $20M and I'm hedging from the estimated $90M+.

Trump Military Parade: Patriotic Celebration or Costly Spectacle?

Explore the controversy surrounding the proposed Trump military parade in D.C., its costs, logistics, and public reactions as the U.S. Army turns 250.
www.military.net www.military.net
President Donald Trump’s vision for a military parade initially surfaced during his term. This was after being greatly inspired by France’s Bastille Day celebrations. After witnessing the French spectacle in 2017, the Associated Press reported that Trump enthusiastically declared, “We’re going to have to try and top it.” Logistical challenges and astronomical costs led to his plans being scrapped....

...One major hurdle for the 2018 parade plans was the staggering price tag. Estimates suggested the event could cost up to $92 million. Widespread criticism of this figure led to Trump canceling the event.

Trump blamed local politicians in a tweet at the time. He stated that the local politicians who run Washington, D.C. poorly know a windfall when they see it. When asked to give a price for holding a great celebratory military parade, Trump claimed they wanted a number so ridiculously high that he cancelled it.

The question of cost remains central this time. With economic challenges and ongoing debates about government spending, critics argue that a lavish military parade is an unnecessary expense.

Organizing a Trump military parade presents a logistical nightmare beyond financial considerations. It calls for meticulous planning and execution in coordinating between multiple government agencies, military branches, and local authorities.

Key challenges include:

  • Traffic management and road closures across two jurisdictions.
  • Security measures for high-profile attendees and the general public.
  • Accommodation and transportation for thousands of military personnel.
  • Potential disruptions to public transportation, including Metro services.
  • Environmental and noise pollution concerns.
These logistical hurdles are compounded by the short timeline. The proposed June 14 date is only weeks away....

...The 250th anniversary is a significant milestone for the U.S. Army worthy of celebration. However, military leadership must balance commemoration with fiscal responsibility and operational readiness.....

...Conclusion​

The debate over the Trump military parade continues. It’s clear that this proposed event is more than a celebration of the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary. It touches on national identity, the military’s role, and government spending priorities.

Whether the parade happens remains to be seen. The discussion around it will continue to reflect debates about patriotism, power, and America’s image. As we approach June 14, all eyes will be on Washington. The question remains if the streets will rumble with a Trump military parade or if this vision will remain a dream.

Both Terry and I are retired 20 year+ US military veterans. How long did you serve, Ms. Edwina?

It is an exercise in truth versus bullshit. I call bullshit on that figure, massive bullshit.


Why indeed. Of course, we piss money away on social programs that don't work and never will, that are rife with fraud and likely aways will be, and in general are a massive leech on society, so there's that too...

A military parade is an exercise in truth versus bullshit?

Health and Veterans programs are pissing away money? Seems contradictory, having a military parade while cutting Veterans programs
