He demonstrates this daily. No need for a parade.

A bit OT, but speaking of parades and military and such, something crawled out from behind that radio microphoneā€¦

I canā€™t even crack wise on this. Itā€™s absolutely appalling that the GOP has completely cratered to the ego of this sociopath. Our only hope, Obi Wan Kenobi, is that Trump ends up like Sadat ( apologies to Sadat who actually served in a military).

Our veterans will be so thrilled to hear the two hour speech (in the hot sun) as the trumpenfuhrer extols the number of electoral college votes that were cast for him, the yuuge size of the crowd at his inauguration, the largeness of his hands, and the length of his tie.

Truly, Trump only wants to honor someone who was in combat.

And then they can cast their Purple Hearts at his feet in homage.

And who will attend such a farce?

Keep in mind, we cannot stop people from waving Confederate flags. As far as the people lining the route of the parade, it will be a thin crowd made up of Trumpā€™s base + protestors.

This parade has ā€œbad opticsā€ written all over it. Not that Trump gives a fuck, as long as he has enough people cheering him, he could care less what the collateral damage is.

I am having a difficult time imagining a more depressing way in which a president could politicize the military.

Descent of the USA into plutocracy and fascism in full swing.

And, that little fucker Macron:
(A) Either he does have a real bromance with Olā€™ President Shitstain, or
(B) Heā€™s faking it.

There is no Ā© option.

If (A): How broken a man do you have to be to have a bromance with such a raving overt narcissist?
If (B): He puts on such a good show, how could you trust this little shit in anything?

ā€œThe Secretary would be authorized to expend funds authorized to be appropriated under this Act for the display of small arms and munitions appropriate for customary ceremonial honors and for the participation of military units that perform customary ceremonial duties,ā€ it continues.

If Iā€™m parsing this correctly this is not the parade Hair GropenFĆ¼ror wants. To him it will be like the Stonehenge set in ā€œSpinal Tapā€.

So the tweets after will be glorious!

This cocksucker should be strung up by his balls for expending taxpaying money for this ego bullshit. But then again, amerika fully deserves this greasy, orange little prick.

The Trump economic policy is a policy of defeatism.

Trump wants to carve up the pie now, and lock it in for all time. Thatā€™s his grand vision of himself.

Trumpā€™s ā€œimmigration policyā€ is a limitation. Heā€™s saying the United States canā€™t take any more. That our country is in such dire straits, our billionaires suffering, that we have to offer jobs to Americans to physically pull apart families. To separate children from their mothers. To make America a living fucking hellhole that no one will ever want to come to.

Are YOU happy? Is this your vision of Eden?

How about living in a country where the innocent people of sinful violence are welcomed, cared for, and moved into our society. There is no doubt almost all of them would be the best contributors to our nationā€™s economy. Not to mention the best advocates for peace. (Is that the problem?) The training process they and all citizens could use, the focus on education based on an informed assessment of business needs. These things benefit the entire nation. Imagine an America competing against the worldā€™s best.

Thatā€™s not what Donald Trump and the Republicans want.

They want walls. Theyā€™re done. No changes to gun laws. No notice of environment. This is it. This is everything the Republican conservative movement has been wanting to do.

The media will love it. Look for Matt Lauer and Billy Bush to be rehired by NBC to cover the thing for days.

Has this bill passed? The House? The Senate? Signed by Trump? Since the article doesnā€™t say, maybe someone online knows. I canā€™t believe that Senate Democrats wouldnā€™t subject this provision to a lot of commentary, and threaten a filibuster,if necessary.

OK. This is the Houseā€™s Defense Authorization Committeeā€™s chairman ā€œmarkā€. So, at this point it is nothing. I assume House Democrats will crap all over it, before the House passes it. In the Senate,I think it is probably doomed.

GOP toadies refuse to speak truth to power again.
