But a military parade is kind of the last straw for many conservatives, particularly young ones, because Trump has said and done totally authoritarian things. His policy hasn’t been authoritarian, but his personal words and actions have been. When people think military parades, they think of 5 people: Hitler, Stalin, Mao, and the Kims. Do you really want Trump to join that list?


You are such an awful poster

Okay I clearly disagree with this thing but no. The parade is after the midterms and unless he continues to do it no one is going to care about this in 2020.

Its a problem to spend 92 Million to show patriotism?

But it's ok to spend 57.4 Billion on welfare for illegals?

While I don't necessarily agree with spending so much money on a military parade, Trump doesn't make decisions without an end goal.

If I'd venture to guess his end goal here, it was to both get the country together and increase patriotism, boost troop morale, and let the Dems shoot themselves in the foot for midterms when they inevitably denounce this.

But with the cost increasing 10 fold, Trump probably realized the cost was going to be a legit issue and smartly decided to scrap it... at least until they can figure out a way to get costs down.

Illegals cost the US about $180B a year but your point is correct.

I wonder why none of the Dems got their panties in a wad when Mr. frickingwonderfulObama gave Iran a couple of billion.....no I don't wonder.

But $92M is too damn much

Complete horse shite. Nothing Trump has said or done has been authoritarian, unless you're an idiot who doesn't understand that words have meanings..

I fully concede that this country is full of idiots though.
