You're a Marine. Don't you know that Donald Trump is going to make America great again by celebrating how powerful the military is? Yes, it only costs three times as much as any emergency fire that needs attending to. Yes, because this? THIS IS BIGGER than any emergency ever. This is TRUMP Day. A NEW DAWN. And the Military had better tow the line and leave their families for the day to make fools of themselves and Trump parading his ego around a day that is supposed to celebrate freedom not Donald who, incidentaly dodged the draft 5 times with fake spurs that would have NEVER kept you out of service, nor anyone who really wanted a military career.
It's confusing to me, but many Americans enjoy setting money on fire and watching it explode in the sky. (Not to mention traumatizing combat veterans and animals in the process).
We're celebrating our independence from a country who guarantees medical care and several months of paid maternity leave to its citizens. Woo hoo!
