    The 250th Army Birthday parade?  ;)

    I turned it on while I was ironing.  I think it was a nice thing to do for 250 years of Army.  I did not see it as a Presidential birthday parade.  Watching soldiers march got old pretty fast for me but what I did enjoy was the historical information and seeing the troops in the uniforms of different conflicts.  Also, it seemed expensive, but everything government does "seems expensive."

    Yes it was for the Army. Trump's birthday just happens to be the same day, also JD Vance's anniversary.  

    I am sure it was expensive.  But several networks were saying it was likely cheaper exposure for recruitment than advertising would have cost. This post was edited by my2cents at June 15, 2025 4:05 PM MDT

    I didn’t watch it but it must not of been very exciting because Trump fell asleep. Cheers!

    It was a $45 million snoozefest.  Vlad and Little Kim must still be laughing their butts off.

    Maybe Trump didn't realize thar the US military isn't about a flashy performance. This post was edited by Jane S at June 16, 2025 10:58 AM MDT

    If Trump gets it his way he will have the Turrets on top of tanks painted to look like MAGA hats. Cheers!

    Our troops know how to march in step.  I believe this was their way of showing their disdain for the "spectacle" in which they were forced to participate.

    I cannot imagine hating a President so much it allowed me to disrespect our military.

    The president doesn't respect our military.  He thinks the ones who were killed or captured are suckers and losers.

    I don't know anyone who disrespect the military simply because they don't respect the commander-in- chief. In fact, most of the people with my political views are appalled by Trump's lack of respect for the military.

    In my opinion the posts above are disrespectful to our military.

    Perhaps you could have asked for clarification, if you had a problem with the posts,  instead of jumping to conclusions and making accusations of hatred and disrespect. I have never and would never, disrespect the military. You would not accept anyone making that comment about yourself that you just made about others.

    Then how do you explain your video you posted a link to?

    You mean the video showing that our military are trained for combat, not to perform as synchronized goose steppers for their leader?

    In my opinion, the vast majority of your posts are disrespectful to people's intelligence. 

    I wonder which one off our two posts will disappear.

    That kind of hurt my feelings because I have always put a lot of time and thought into aiming my disrespect at Trump – not the American people or it’s military.

    Example

    Trump: Knock knock.

    Low income school kid: Who’s there?

    Trump: Donald.

    Low income school kid: Donald who:

    Trump: The Donald that just had a glorious 50 million dollar military parade. Did you see it?

    Low income school kid: No I was too busy fighting hunger all day.

    Cheers!
