“Tanks for the memories!”
And now I’ll go back into seclusion at an unknown location.

The man’s skill set seems unencumbered by the limitations that plague normal people, like fear of making yourself a laughingstock. One day he’s planning a reception for a championship sports team, the next directing the firefighting operations at a renowned cultural site, the next expanding the vision of where tanks can go and what bridges can hold.

And he’s passed that trait onto his daughter, who is so laughably clueless in that clip with May and LaGard, it almost seems like a doctored video. I think Melania might be the only one who has a sense of how the family is truly perceived - which is why she begs off frequently.

While I think this whole July 4th Trump takeover thing stinks like a rotting fish, the Army can almost certainly get a tank to the event. The army’s M1070 truck can safely haul a M1 Abrams tank over roads.

Gonna be a damn shame if they try to drive either on the Mall, though. I imagine any large truck or tank would tear up the turf to a fare-thee-well.

Probably true, but I dislike her just as much as the other Trumps.

The more I read about this latest tribute to the “great orange” the more I sense a flop. It is slapdash, as usual. In fact all the hoopla Trump tries to stir up it feels like things are way off. There is a palpable fear running just under the surface with this presidency.

There’s nothing worse than a tacky, infantile, spoiled egomaniac.

If they cut the tanks in half it would be only thirty tons. Maybe then the Army could get them over the bridges.

You mean like his buddy Kris Kobach?

Again, repeating myself.
This grand vision he has is dwindling down to an open house display you see at any base with that type of event. (I do hope they disable the fire extinguishing systems if they let the kids play inside them. Memories, clue in the 60s they had a foam based system)
But back to the point. So far I have read maybe six vehicles. Does anyone know if they brought anymore in worthy of a grand military procession? I think Trump has a Russian May Day parade in his head.

Well, it’s Trump planning this, isn’t it, in the face of a lot of headwinds and slow-walking. (With thunderstorms predicted there may be actual wind as well.) We say “tanks” and envision those Soviet parades from 1961 when in fact there will be five armored vehicles tops, and they’ll be static. Kind of meh, right? Planes flying over, in overcast and possibly stormy skies, might not come off impressively or at all. And the whole thing is just off. There was always a clownish, overdone quality to Trump’s grandiosity, and that’s been a consistent theme all his life. Trying to graft that onto a longstanding Washington event is just going to seem grotesque.
