The 250th anniversary celebration of the Army was planned before Trump was elected .

[Kilroy2]

More disingenous bs from the trump nut suckers. The Army did not have what's planned for tomorrow as a celebration.

obviously Trump decided to join in and have people celebrate his birthday

He is the Commander and clown

Do you see any tanks?

The emphasis is on the soldier.

In the TWO, only pictures you present, that may be.
However one is from World War one era when the US Army had very few tanks anyway.

From other sources and past parades;

French, Bastille Day 2017

Soldiers, 1935 ;-)
End Part One ....

according to the left , the 250th anniversary celebration of the US ARMY is nothing more than a dictator wanna be "Trump" celebrating his own birthday .. even thought the anniversary coincides with the POTUS's Birthday ,what the left isn't reporting is that the celebration of the ARMY was planned long before Trump was sworn in ..

I see no evidence a parade through the streets of DC was planned before Trump came along.

Was there one for their 200th birthday?

Nope.

The Army celebrates it's birthday every year, as do all the services.

The Navy's 250th birthday is in October. Is there going to be a flotilla on the Potomac?

No. Because that's not Trump's birthday.

This Army birthday celebration is a bullshit excuse. Trump tried to have a military parade in his first term and there was no significant military milestone then.

You are being gaslighted once again.

June 14th is also "Flag Day".

We have a trifecta of sorts on Saturday.

And as the Left has already started and shown, they have no respect or regard for the U.S. Army, the American Flag, and especially for POTUS Trump.

leftist will be burning American flags on flag day during their mass protest .

 

[yidnar]

I g

A celebration for those who served.

Now Trump is in the picture and wants to be part of it as it coincidentally that is his birthday

I think this is a conflict. If this is their day , why is Trump birthday even mentioned?


Typivcal Trump behavior

it is Trumps birthday but he should be spending it with family. This is certainly Trumps idea to celebrate both as the army cannot refuse

Anyway to blow this up

Trump is a draft doger and refused to serve when called

Army must be pulling their hair as what can they do as he is the president.

Was Trump a 'draft dodger'?

With his signature flair for controversy, billionaire Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump challenged the Viet

www.politifact.com

Ronald Kuby, a criminal and civil rights lawyer and talk show host, appeared on WABC-AM in New York City on July 15, 2015, three days before Trump made his controversial comments. Kuby highlighted the multiple student deferments Trump received, and how he finally got a medical exemption that staved off the draft.

So when called to duty , his family pulled strings to get him out of that obligation

Now he wants to celebrate his birthday on their day.

This is going to blow up in his face.

guess the left expects the CIC to skip the celebration of our military because it coincides with his birthday .. if Trump didn't attend the left would be screeching Trump disrespects the military on its 250th anniversary ..

soldiers operate and drive tanks ..

AI Overview


Yes, the U.S. Army's 250th anniversary celebration, including the planned military parade, was indeed planned before the election. Reports from Reuters indicate that planning for the event began at least a year prior, placing it before the November 2024 election. The parade is part of a larger year-long commemoration of the Army's 250th anniversary, with the theme "This we'll defend".

The celebration includes a week-long series of events, culminating in a national birthday celebration on June 14th in Washington, D.C. The parade will feature soldiers in period uniforms, showcasing the Army's history and role in U.S. wars. There will also be a wreath-laying ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery, live music, fireworks, and appearances by senior military leaders and veterans.

While the parade is officially part of the larger anniversary celebration, its timing on June 14th, which is also Trump's birthday, has drawn criticism and sparked debate about whether it is being used to celebrate him personally. Despite the controversy, the Army maintains that the parade is about celebrating the Army's 250th anniversary and its service to the nation.

• What we know about the Army anniversary parade on Trump's ...
  May 20, 2025 — The U.S. Army is bringing 6,500 troops into Washington, along with 150 vehicles and 50 aircraft for the celebration. .

the article you refer to says the army altered the plans to include a parade.
This means before Trump came along, it was going to be a celebration without a parade.

That photo is from a parade in WARSAW, POLAND. It is not a photo of a parade through the streets of our Capital.

This is from the same parade in Warsaw. It is not a photo of a parade through the streets of our Capital.

This was a parade in honor of General Dwight D. Eisenhower for his prowess in WWII for which Bone Spur just the other day tried to take some of the glory for himself.

This was a parade in California. It is not a photo of a parade through the streets of our Capital.

This was a parade in Japan after the Army crushed them. It is not a photo of a parade through the streets of our Capital.

This is a stock photo from overseas of an M-1 Abrams tank. It is not a photo of a parade through the streets of our Capital.

French, Bastille Day 2017

So Trump is saying we should be more like the French?!?

Soldiers, 1935 ;-)
End Part One ....

Ahhhhh...those were the days.

 

[theHawk]

This ridiculous third world-esque parade was not.

^^ lefties just hate America. They see us as “colonizers” that need to be driven out or killed off.

Well yes, it is the 250th.

Next year will be the 250th anniversary of our Declaration of Independence, which we already know will trigger lefties and they will no doubt protest it.

Your nit picks are irrelevant.
The issue was if "tanks" (also AFVs and military vehicles) are ever in parades. Nothing about it being limited to the USA Capital, D.C.

BTW, seems your fail to grasp whimsy ....

 

[g5000]

 

[Stryder50]

Again you fail to see whimsy.
Was included for the 'no tanks' whiners.

BTW, why do Trump haters burn the American flag ???

Oh yeah, you failed to show the Union Jack, flags of Japan, Italy, Korea, Spain, Mexico, etc. ....

so you don't want a military parade through the streets of our Capital ? why ? and as far as the parade goes ..sadly .. the mass protests and violence the left may commit tomorrow may overshadow any controversy the left has drummed up over celebrating our military ..

Eh, "first worlders" like Russia, CCP China, and many other 1st & 2nd world nations have these sort of parades often.

 

[Crepitus]

It is considered a training exercise.

That's an extremely weak excuse.

Is it really the best you can come up with?

You screwed with him. So, he screws back. No matter what he does he will be persecuted from anything to the left. So, he gives you more to smear. Only much of it is under his control.
