If true, WHICH ISN’T A GIVEN, I’m becoming very frosty towards this parade.
Those military personnel and military equipment used in the parade are paid whether in parade or sitting in barracks.
Fake news!

I don’t believe the number for a second. The cost is essentially transport cost — and that’s basically fuel and depreciation on the vehicles.
Fuel for the planes, etc.
People feeling patriotic don’t vote Democrat — it’s a proven fact. In fact, American flags in polling places make people more likely to support Republicans.
This is about bringing back pride in the USA -— which Democrats abhor (for reasons political and reasons due to their core beliefs about how horrid the USA is).

The important thing is to believe THIS Big Media article, because it’s not DIRECTLY related to politics.
How much does it cost a General to coordinate a ‘tank’ display? In reality NOTHING because we pay him if he's sitting in his office or working on the parade. But ‘newies’ include that number to make it seem like we're wasting money. It's mostly BS... consider the source.
How much is fraudulent ‘disability’ costing us EVERY DAY?
More. Much more...
If it’s the usual accounting shenanigans, the “cost” has included the pay of every serviceman/woman participating.
They’d get paid regardless, but it’s an old trick to play at inflating budgets.
