    What a ridiculous waste of the taxpayer's money. If they use tanks, they'll have to resurface the streets. Another juvenile act by The Clown in Chief. Ask the Joint Chiefs what they think about it off the record? The answer would be, "We'd rather have the money to spend on our military."

    I imagine a red state bloodbath of exploded heads if some of the soldiers start kneeling during the parade.

    We need to stop demeaning children and toddlers by comparing them to Trump.

    They might not know a lot, but damn they are curious and energetic, and you know, inherently pretty GOOD. They can be trying but they also bring joy.

    Trump meanwhile is a slovenly mound of profound immoral ignorance, and inherently kind of evil and behaves in a way that we teach children not to (and most don't).

    With 200k, they should have no problem fielding a very attractive formation :)

    One way to save money and appease the emperor is to make the US parade happen in south Korea and Japan. They will pay the bill solutes, women and more.

    Vets and current soldiers in the military need to speak up against this

    The money being wasted is pennies compared to the money the Republicans have wasted on the Tax Bill (5-7 trillion) and the Wall (18 billion).

    To me it just seems creepy. Reminds me of this:

    A total waste of money but it's trump so wasting taxpayer money is just like something he would do.

    A military parade is a really stupid idea.

    I'd like to see a big military parade with flyovers of B1s, B2s, B52s, F22s, F35s... etc -- all sorts of crazy military vehicles driving by it would be cool. Maybe me and Trump could just hit an airshow at Ellington.
