Let’s get the deficit in order before circuses.
I think there were many victory parades for the First Gulf War. We went to a big one in Denver.
I’m psyched!!
I’m actually shocked some random judge hasn’t said Trump can’t have a parade.
Look at the unpatriotic Anti-American, anti-Trump/anti-Military responses in the Keywords section above:

You people should be ashamed.
It’ll be like May Day in Moscow.
(Let’s get the deficit in order before circuses.)
This is about celebrating the US Army’s 250th Anniversary with pride and patriotism. I guess you’re against every Fourth of July celebration too.
(It’ll be like May Day in Moscow.)
Even better!
I don’t like the optics of this idea. Too much like what China and North Korea do.......
Military parades are for dictatorships. They are innately a threat to the populace. “Stay in line, or this gets aimed at you.” They have no place in America. They are unpatriotic. You should be ashamed.
I’ve decided that my decorations will run from the 12th, through the 8th of July.
For the preppers out there, check your preps now, terrorists would love to have an event during this next month.
We shouldn't have them every year.
But a parade to celebrate the Army's 250th birthday?
**** yeah!
We shouldn’t have them.
There were more troops than this the last time I was in D.C. the 82nd alone had 4,000 paratroops there.
When the Isreali jets came back from pounding Northern Iran, they came back in formation. I would have loved to see that.
When jets come back from fights over the Nevada desert, they often come back in formation. When they take off, it is fun to see a jet gear up going around 400 knots 50’ off of the ground.
It’s not about the numbers. It’s about the form. Military parades exist for one reason. They are a display of strength to threaten all comers. Especially the local population. There’s a reason why dictatorships LOVE them and have them all the time.
I’m looking forward to this display of force. Screw those pussies that whine about the cost. The benefit to recruiting will be worth every penny. Even though the recruiting numbers look great currently, the various branches can demand more qualified candidates as wait lists grow. Democrats will never get behind spending cuts so Trump is doing the only thing that will cut into deficits. He is right to attack the problem by stimulating growth. Lowering energy prices, tax cuts, tariffs and curbing inflation will add billions in revenue. Sustained growth at 4%+ will cure many problems once spending is throttled down.
“Kyiv can’t guarantee safety of foreign leaders in Washington DC for the military parade” Zelenskyy says
250th anniversary of the Army is pretty epic. I won’t be around for 300. Why are people complaining?
