Me, too.
In fact, I’m a little surprised at how much I’m cheered by this small bit of good news.

He’s going to have play more than his usual six rounds of golf this weekend to get over this burn. But he’ll be thinking through a response and so Monday be ready to stand back and watch for the incoming.

Trump will show everyone, just you wait and see! He’ll hold his parade in a low-cost, low tax country using rented foreign troops, who he will then pay ten cents on the dollar.
Such a negotiator!

A day earlier, the Pentagon said Mr. Trump’s parade to celebrate the military could be postponed to 2019, as officials acknowledged that the event could cost more than $90 million.

They don’t even have to be mayors, just being a strong black woman is enough to send our racist, misogynist pres. off a cliff!
Can’t wait to see his next mispelled tweet! We may get to see the "N’ word yet!

Not thinking as the word is understood, but impulsively reacting? Forming a string of insults? How to reference the mayor’s gender and race? It’ll be a lot to choose from for him.
Followed by “Warmest Best Wishes” as he wrote in memory of Aretha.

As punishment for this disrespect and uppityness, he must consider moving the seat of national government out of D.C. to Trump Tower in NYC. Think of the rents he could charge.

According to CNBC -
The parade, originally slated for Nov. 10 but now potentially set for 2019, is estimated to cost $92 million, the official said. The figure consists of $50 million from the Pentagon and $42 million from interagency partners such as the Department of Homeland Security.
From the Mayor’s comments about spending money on DC citizens and not on the parade, Washington DC may not have been considered an “interagency partner” - so the parade’s actual price tag could have been much higher.
Also, I found an article in Slate that describes the impact to Washington by the last military parade:
If I worked for the people of DC, I’d be celebrating the parade’s cancellation too!

You can see Honest Don’s point. The Mayor didn’t use Donnie’s special “cost-saving” techniques.
–> It costs as much as $92 million, only if you intend to PAY THE WORKERS.
