Damned if You Don't: MSNBC Criticizes July 4th Event -- Not as Grandiose as North Korea!

When it comes to the liberal media and President Trump, it's damned if you do, damned if you don't.
MSNBC gave a classic example of the phenomenon this morning. In the days leading up to the Salute to America parade, the liberal media had savaged it, and in particular the prospect of tanks rolling down the streets of DC. But when the event actually unfolded, and instead of tanks rolling down the streets, armored vehicles were parked rather inconspicuously on display, that was no good, either.
To the contrary, in place of Morning Joe's first hour at 6 am Eastern, the MSNBC crew kvetched that the parade didn't live up to the ostentatious standards of North Korea or France! Co-host Cal Perry complained that the event wasn't the "massive parade" that had been touted. Never Trumper Tom Nichols said it wasn't "the big Bastille Day thing." And early morning co-host Yasmin Vossoughian added that it wasn't "what we've seen from the likes of Kim Jong-un in North Korea, either."

So now MSNBC is complaining that the parade wasn’t big enough. Pres. Trump can’t win with these people!

I think we all know, if Obama had put on such an event, the media would have had thrills up their legs. It’s because it’s Trump who did this, that they are bitching about it.

The last time I saw a President have a tank parade was in Waco Texas, and no one at CNN complained?

Well, when their heads are so far up their posteriors, the only thing that can come out of their mouths is pure unadulterated POOP!

Well of “cuss” (theirs) they won’t be satisfied. Armored vehicles just sitting on guard? Where’s the tantara? Which they’d excoriate if it was present. But in the meantime half of China’s GDP of fireworks.

More people watched the 4th celebration on FOX and CSPAN in one hour that MSNBC will get in one year.

NBC and MSNBC suffer from #Ameriphobia - the irrational hatred of America.

MSNBC is one of the communists clubs of America.

Official DC also put out the word there would be an ‘embarrassingly small number of people’ who would show up... DC ‘elites’ (White trash with sinecures) are wrong once again...

They’re mulling over having Antifa wear brown shirts while marching with a goose step and right arm extended straight out.

Trump got the North Koreans to celebrate the Fourth of July? I'm impressed!
