It’s the truth. I would be against this style parade for any president. It is how dictatorships worked. It’s how they’ve worked my entire life. And I don’t really care what people who aren’t smart enough to recognize that truth think now or 10 years from now. Cuba, USSR, Egypt, Angola, Zaire, Chile. I know what kind of countries have these parades. We shouldn’t imitate them. Ever. Even with the best intentions.

Dictatorships hold military parades in their capitals every year, the US Army does one in 250 years and you complain?
