Propagandists tend to inflate numbers and you fell for it.

This guardian article shows a moralistic scale: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jun/15/trump-army-parade

Count me out - JD hardly represents a GOP recovery of brains, balls, and integrity. He turned in his man card to "America's Hitler" (his words) long ago.

You could be continuing your streak of being on the wrong side of political history again.
But, then again, what viable choice do you have right now?

It's quite possible I'll be on the wrong side of political history in 2028, yes.

It won't be the wrong side of ethics and integrity. Small consolation, I know.

Who currently has the political power which the Democrats are still desperately seeking.

Well, that would be MAGATS et al, beginning with KING MAGAT, the worst president that ever sat behind the Resolute Desk.

How is the Constitution being destroyed?

Seriously? Have you put on blinders that thick and large you can't begin to see? Just check out KING MAGATS attempt to destroy our Constitution with Executive Order 14160

There have been suits, counter-suits, and appeals.

Where there never should have been any, if KING MAGAT wasn't trying left and right to subvert our Constitution.

Isn't that the way the legal system is supposed to work?

Thank GOD we still have that Legal system, but even the Constitutionally established legal systems we have are under assault by KING MAGAT.

Of course, as a member of the doom-and-gloomers,

I didn't know you were such a member, but folks who know are aware that I am not any member of the "doom-and-gloomers".
When I speak of Trump's destruction I am speaking from wide open observance of the evidence.

you have to regularly parrot the Left to let everyone know the ski is falling

I am no parrot to the Left nor is there any need to warn them of any falling ski.

and it's only a matter of time before we all get hit by a piece of the sky.

I live in the midst of the bottom of the sky, it is called our atmosphere, I have no worry that any piece of it might hit me.

What a total waste of Taxpayers monies and the Military's time, all to stroke the DICTATOR sized ego of KING MAGAT aka draft dodger Donald Trump.

You are aware that EO was quickly challenged?
Isn't that what the Constitution is supposed to do?

Trump's attempt has not been successful.
Is the Constitution working according to your desires?

Executive Order 14160​

The order was swiftly challenged in court by multiple organizations and states, being blocked by multiple federal judges.

Legal challenges​

At least ten lawsuits challenging the executive order have been brought by various plaintiffs, including 22 U.S. state attorneys general, civil liberties and immigrants rights groups, and pregnant women.

So you wish to totally overlook the expressions of patriotism for our country and our Army.
And you're concerned with how $45 million is spent to demonstrate such patriotism.
So glad you constantly are remaining on the wrong side of the ideological spectrum.
BTW, in case you haven't noticed, that side is constantly demonstrating why Kamala lost and the Democrats are now virtually powerless.

 

[LouC]

<Blah Blah Blah Snipped>

For anyone well read in our Constitution and not trying to destroy our Constitution and or subvert Constitutionally established law they never would have written that EO.

There never, ever, ever should have been any need for immediate challenge to that EO that was clearly aimed at destroying a part and a parcel of our Constitution.

He was wrong.

 

[Hamish Howl]

If you feel insulted by my point above, why are you engaged with the forum like this? I'm not offended, but my point stands. Lots of angry, unhinged replies on this thread.

This is America. We don't need military parades to demonstrate patriotism.

You may have us confused with Russia or North Korea.

Protesters opposing US Army parade occupy Capitol Hill steps​

Mostly peaceful protestors breaking though a barrier fence on Capitol Hill. How ironic.

"Footage captured the moment a group of protesters, including veterans, broke through the barrier fencing on Capitol Hill and occupied its steps during a demonstration against the upcoming U.S. Army parade."

MSN

We learned when Trump pardoned the J6 insurrectionists that breaking through barriers at the Capitol Building isn't a crime or in any way reprehensible.

Well we know from past White House crowd size estimates, they include those watching on TV.

There is no way there were 250,000 in attendance at the parade.

How do you swallow this bullshit without gagging?

 

[Infinite Chaos]

It is an incredible FU middle finger to the millions of people who Trump is busy reducing support for and making poorer through his tariffs and tax cuts. Problem is that many of his supporters are so dumb that they won't work that out until their pantries are bare. But even then Trump will convince them that it is really the evil Dems that are starving their families. As the saying goes, you can't fix stupid!

You just eerily described Farage and all the people he convinced that "Brexit" was a great idea.

 

[Trippy Trekker]

Can’t really assess Trump’s Parade. I thoroughly enjoyed participating in a No Kings Protest in Sarasota FL.

Viva the Anti-Trump Movement!

 

[jaypatriot]

Well, there were a lot of people there.
I didn't personally count them all.

And you know that for a fact?

Some people simply enjoy watching tanks and big guns roll by.

Just pointing out the Constitution is working.
Seems like the Chicken Little's waiting for the sky to fall want to be proven they are right.

You support a man who tried to subvert the Constitution. But it's cool, because he was stopped.

There's another thread discussing the upcoming parade in DC. This poll is a chance to see exactly what kind of support this event has.

Three choices:

4 Choices actually:

1. A waste of Time
2. A waste of money
3. Stroking Trump's ego
4. All of the above

 

[JMR]

And you know that for a fact?

If you read any news (other than Fox) you would know the 250,000 White House estimate is ridiculously overstated. Crowd estimates by event organizers and news organizations put the figure between 50 and 100 thousand, give or take 20 at either end, which puts it at about 75,000.
That is a fact.
