President Trump will address veterans and military officials to open the Veterans Day Parade in New York City next week.

Trump will speak at the opening ceremony of the 100th edition of the annual parade at Madison Square Park in Manhattan, the White House said Wednesday. Trump is the first sitting president to accept the invitation to address the event, which is hosted by the United Veterans War Council.

After delivering remarks at the outset of the parade, Trump will lay a wreath at the Eternal Light Memorial in the park.

More than 20,000 people are expected to participate in next Monday's parade in New York. Veterans, military groups and civic organizations are among the yearly participants.

Are there any patriots left in New York City?

I know a few transplanted ones down here in sunny Southwest Florida, all good conservatives.

I don’t entirely buy into this theory that everyone who moves from a blue state to a red state is a flaming socialist. It’s more like the population sorting itself out and continuing the process of polarization.

We’ve got a guy in a group I’m in that’s a recent California refugee. He’s definitely a conservative.

It’s a little hard to believe that no U.S. President has ever done this before.

Not even FDR, also a New York native?

Good! A lot of undesirables will boycott the parade because of his presence, so normal people won’t have to put up with them.

Boy Cuomo is running around the state taking credit for low unemployment that Trump's policies allowed for nationwide. These Dems are stupid.

Don’t you know, Deblasio and Cuomo think they are the ruling kings of New York.
