I see. If you had a gun, would you shoot a person because you believed they were bad?No one, not even you believes Donald is doing this for any reason other than giving himself a Big Boy Birthday Parade. Anyone who asserts differently is either gobsmackingly obtuse or lying to themselves.
I am not a fool to make a statement when I am unaware of the facts over, but there are fools who think they know the facts......But go on - tell me how Donald is spending tens of millions of taxpayer dollars to honor anyone besides himself.
I don't know. Why should I care.While you're at it, tell me you believe Donald when he says he will pay for it himself.
It is obvious who you think it is for.Projection. Exactly who do you think this parade will be for?

I am not arrogant enough to make my opinions fact.
It will be part of the FY25 operations money funded by the continuing resolution.Has Congress approved funding for this grotesque event?
"WHY OH LORD ARE THESE NON-MAGAS SO COLD AND HEARTLESS? WHY CAN'T THEY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT DEAR LEADER IS ONLY TRYING TO HONOR THE ARMY?!?"My God man. Do you not care that 250 years is a very significant mark in history? Does you hatred for the man really make it so you will deny the army their rights?
Current estimates have the Army spending between 40-60M dollars for Donald's parade, and rising.It will be part of the FY25 operations money funded by the continuing resolution.
You mean for the 250th Army birthday parade.Current estimates have the Army spending between 40-60M dollars for Donald's parade, and rising.
Oh course in the age of DoGE it's certainly worth discussing whether our Army is better off spending $60M on equipment, training, and support for our soliders instead of using it to make soldiers march past Donald for an afternoon on his Big Boy Birthday Parade so he can show Vlad he's bigly too.You mean for the 250th Army birthday parade.
Let’s cancel it. Our soldiers don’t deserve a celebration of 250 year of the US Army. /sOh course in the age of DoGE it's certainly worth discussing whether our Army is better off spending $60M on equipment, training, and support for our soliders instead of using it to make soldiers march past Donald for an afternoon on his Big Boy Birthday Parade so he can show Vlad hexs bigly too.
Let's cancel it, and if you're so adamant the Army spends $60M to honor them I'm certain for that kind of money we can find something that genuinely serves and honors them better (and has a longer lasting impact) than Donald's Big Boy Birthday Parade.Let’s cancel it. Our soldiers don’t deserve a celebration of 250 year of the US Army. /s
No, they had that planned months ago and this wasnt part of it.You mean for the 250th Army birthday parade.
Maybe if Donald wears enough medals at his parade it will give the illusion that his chest sticks out farther than his stomach.No, they had that planned months ago and this wasnt part of it.
This is Trump's parade.
I'd prefer the administration spend the $60 million to adequately fund and support the military health system.Oh course in the age of DoGE it's certainly worth discussing whether our Army is better off spending $60M on equipment, training, and support for our soliders instead of using it to make soldiers march past Donald for an afternoon on his Big Boy Birthday Parade so he can show Vlad he's bigly too.
I am shocked - SHOCKED - that anyone would assume Donald was doing this as anything other than a selfless, heartfelt salute to the Army. Just look at the past 79 years of his life - be it fellow man or business or family or wives , Donald's behavior has altruism and self-sacrifice and humility galore!This is really offensive now as the news continues to leak out that the parade is Trump's idea pushed onto the Army's concept which did not include a parade.
The Army's idea was a Festival of activities and presentations at the Washington Monument grounds and that's it. Now though according to new news reports the WH moved in on the Army's idea to expand it into a parade of lethal weapons and troops with Trump as its centerpiece. This is totally offensive and overdone by Trump, for Trump and of Trump.
The parade, according to a U.S. official, was an idea pushed by the White House. The official spoke on condition of anonymity.
The parade’s finale includes the Army’s Golden Knights parachute team landing and presenting a “flag to the POTUS on behalf of the Army,” one planning slide shows. Trump will then preside over a ceremony enlisting and re-enlisting soldiers.
“Begins with the Secretary of the Army and Chief of Staff of the Army reporting to the President of the United States followed by our Nation’s flag carried by the Honor Guard’s Color Guard and the Army Flag,” the planning document states. The parade is scheduled to last nearly four hours and be capped off with a fireworks display.

That is silly.
You are so confused.
I quoted a line from your post in my post.The edited version of my post that you published within your own post, still exists in the thread. Your denial is hilarious,

Typos. Typing on a phone.Another word a "collige" graduate can't decipher.
Typos. Typing on a phone.
That is your arguement?
Lol.There's no need to go much further once you have denied publishing an edited version of my post, when it is an observed fact you did exactly that.
The most charitable conclusion is that you don't know what the words mean.
