I am watching it on CGTN on YT. Flawless formations. Even hopping on their tanks, perfectly synchronized. Impressive. And do their troops have flawless skin.

You didn't even show up on Free Republic in November last to celebrate Trump's victory, troll.

Don't go posting pictures of Trump's words to ME - I fought hard for Trump in the FR primary wars of 2015-2016, before trolling on FR was even a gleam in your troll eye.

Honestly, this is pathetic. Reminds of of the kind of empty crap they staged when Yuri Andropov and Konstanin Chernenko were Chairmen.
