I suspect they’re trying to bury him with details until he gets distracted/bored.
[/quote]Having options will require him to make a decision. Perhaps he should poll the Mar-A-Lago members, as he did with gun control. I mean, who better to help with presidential decision-making. If only he had, you know…like a Cabinet of advisors or other aides.

AFAIK the US Army has many more than needed M1 Abrams tanks.

(It was forced to buy them by pork-barrel politics,one of the factories is placed in Lima, Ohio )

They could make a special detachment solely for Donalds pleasure, permanently placed in Washington. If Donald should want his personal lifeguard, they would be useful, too.

And Ivanka could create a new DPM colourscheme in the seasons colours…

Pentagon May Solicit Donations For Trump’s Military Parade

These guys at the Pentagon are getting tiresome. I agree that the parade is dumb, however Trump just send their way extra 80 billion, and the cheapskates can’t scrap a few millions go give their beneficiary a parade? Can’t the generals even pretend that they care for anyone other than the Defense Contractors?

I like curry flavor

Great. Another opportunity for corruption and graft.

As if the Trump hotel wasn’t obviously a vector for corruption enough the Trump parade needed to be added to the list.

Stephanie Winston Wolkoff will coordinate the parade. Her company will be paid 50 million, of which she’ll pocket 5. Anything over the 50 million needed will go to “charity” after “expenses”. 100 million will be raised. $5.27 will make it to charity.

JHFC! All we need is a big display of military force brought to you by the Koch Brothers, Sheldon Adelson and the Mercers. I will NOT feel safer!

…or even the least bit proud…

Sorry, those all went to Melania’s BFF “event planner.” Pretty sure the event she’s planning is her life after divorcing 2 Scoops.

Maybe they should run that clip on 'Fox and Friends", might give him other thoughts…

The company that she founded on December 2016 got a 26 million contract on January. That’s Puerto Rico level of corruption. I am actually happy that this came out, we can stop pretending that Melania is a poor woman constantly humiliated by a philandering husband. She may not have wanted to be FLOTUS, but Melania intends to milk the position for all is worth. Just like Jared & Ivanka, and the Trump boys. Bunch of crooks all of them

As long as Johnny Weir and Adam Rippon do commentary on the parade, I’m cool with it.

Since when did this admin start doing competitive bidding? Or, maybe, you know Melania?

When I first heard of the idea i thought of the Tianamen Square tank man. I’m sure it will happen.

The way the Pentagon sees it, if you still have money in your pocket you owe it to them, they do not have enough money to keep you safe.

Oooooooh, now there’s a thought. Women’s March blocking the route and side streets filled with #NoMoreGuns protesters. #ImpeachmentParty providing sustenance to the marchers.

Yep. I like it.
