      ~~Of course Trump is going to make it seem the parade is for HIM, and I’m sure he’ll make sure to make it even „bigger“ to boost his big, fat ego!~~ OR, as someone mentioned, it’s the other way around!!

      BUT:

      >The US Army’s birthday is on June 14th. This date marks the anniversary of the Continental Congress’s establishment of the Continental Army on June 14, 1775.

      Edited to add:

      >The timing and White House involvement in planning efforts have stoked speculation that Trump is using the Army’s birthday as an [excuse to get the kind of grand military parade](https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/trump-requests-pentagon-plan-big-military-parade/story?id=52889562) **he wanted during his first term in office. That event was scrapped after estimates topped $90 million.**

      >**The cost for this year’s June 14 parade is unclear, officials said**, but it will likely be steep. The event will require involvement from several federal agencies, including those requiring security. The Army plans to have soldiers from each of the its 10 divisions represented in the parade, according to a U.S. official. 🙄

      I thought maga was at their breaking point with gas and grocery prices? With a broken stock market? Now Trump is telling us “we need our medicine”, that there is an unspecified period of hardship coming up, and to buy less for your kids – and now he’s planning a military parade? We don’t need a fucking military parade right now. Our military is incredible, we don’t need to show it off.

      And then lining it up with his birthday. Just get absolutely fucked.

      I really don’t understand all the criticism of this. Does no one here appreciate just how much military pomp and pageantry are guaranteed to bring down the price of eggs?

      They are never going to leave either.

      This is now what America looks like.. Tanks on the streets. Called it.

      This only degrades the military. Shame on anyone who takes part in it.

    6. Let’s see, gave the military the right to arrest Americans and put them all over the border. Now, a lot of weapons and equipment are coming into the capital!

    7. We’re cutting fraud and waste from the government, now please enjoy a military parade for a draft dodger.

      Conservatives: Obama and Biden are taking your freedoms away and want to be dictators!!!

      Also Conservatives: Give Trump a military parade like he’s Kim Jong Un.

      This kind of parade for the US president’s birthday is something common in the US?

    10. Last time he requested this, they said no because that’s what dictators do. Now they’re doing it, because that’s what dictators do.

      Any American troops who participate in this outrageously expensive North Korean-style cover for one pathetic man’s endless insecurities should be publicly vilified for the rest of their lives.

      This is actually what dictators do. We are literally going to waste thousands maybe even millions, just so trump can feel like a special boy. Just think about how much coordination, planning, and training that will need to go into this. I mean those poor enlisted are going to waste so much time at the motor pool practicing marching.

      >“The Army is celebrating its 250th Birthday with multiple events leading up to June 14,“ the Army said in a statement Friday evening. „The national level celebration will include a spectacular fireworks display, a parade, and a day-long festival on the National Mall in Washington, DC. The festival will feature displays of Army equipment, military demonstrations, musical performances, and a fitness competition.

      >“Given the significant milestone of 250 years, the Army is exploring options to make the celebration even bigger, with more capability demonstrations, additional displays of equipment, and more engagement with the community,“ it added. „Parade planning is actively underway, and we anticipate approximately 150 vehicles, 50 aircraft, and 6,600 Soldiers to highlight the Army’s 250 years of service to the nation.“

      It’s the army’s 250th birthday but Trump wants to make it all about him, and he didn’t even serve.

    14. This loser wants Putin to like him so bad. „Look now I have a parade as well, do you think I’m cool now?“

      The hilarious part about this is the pavement isn’t suited for the treads of heavy military vehicles. So. Any of them participating will have to just be carried on flatbed trucks. Or, they’d completely destroy the street.

      Poor American children don’t need lunches or healthcare, but we need to spend tens of Millions on a parade for this clown.

    17. McNuttyNutz on

      Complete fucking waste of money and what a fucking joke this country has become

    18. Altruistic_Mix_290 on

      We’re canceling meals on wheels and pediatric cancer research so we can have this birthday parade are going to make great ads in 2026

      I’m from a prior Soviet nation. This is the most backwards shit I’ve ever seen. I also served in the US military and I can tell ya the people I spent time with in the desert for those months wouldn’t be cool with this shit

    20. If we can not afford more than two dolls, how can we afford a military parade?
