The parade - from one who was there

[SweetSue92]

You're a MAGA Christian™. That means nothing. Zero.

Serious Christians are heartbroken.

If you don't like that opinion, tough shit.

You have become so myopic you judge people's hearts and souls through a political lens. That's YOU, Mac, all you.

 

[rightwinger]

It's what the Left does, like the right goes to church. It does nothing to move the needle politically. We KNOW you hate Trump and we KNOW you love to have mass temper tantrums about it.

The optics of the day were overwhelming

Indifference to Trumps $45 million birthday parade
Millions came out to protest Trumps excesses

Trump pisses off the Left and they have mass tantrums about it. You've been saying how great the "optics" are. Honey, it's not working for you--especially the optics of old, white people in droves.

That was Trump’s core base. If white people dont vote overwhelmingly for the GQP they in trouble. They already have the narrowest majority in 90 years. I’d be shocked if the GQP doesn’t lose the midterms. They loss votes in the house in 2024.

To top it off, the news cycle was overtaken by a RW Terrorist who killed Democratic lawmakers on Trumps birthday.


Bad day for our President

Jun 3, 2025 — There are no parade plans for the Navy and Marine Corps' 250th anniversaries ... has no plans for a similar parade, according to a spokesperson.

Meanwhile, the Navy, which also celebrates its 250th anniversary in October, has no plans for a similar parade, according to a spokesperson. The Marine Corps, too, has its 250th in November, and does not appear to have a parade on tap either.

The Marines and Navy have no plans, but if the Commander-in-Chief says they will guess what will happen.

As I have stated and you loons can't seem to comprehend the US Army was instated 171 years before Trump was born. I would ask that you idiots congratulate an organization that has done it's best to protect and serve, but its a waste of breath. No cheers for the Army but a lot of pissing and moaning about Trump.

Old white people, but with drums. Remember when you were sure to win all elections going forward because, minorities?

Not a good day for our President

An event tailored to highlight his presidency…..Look what I did!

Instead he was met with indifference

You can tell by how hard they're trying.

They're sure not celebrating the millions at their new Christ's birthday parade.

I can see where securing one's own borders to enforce national immigration laws while cleaning up crime, leveling trade, ending wars, reducing waste, spending and corruption, and improving economic activity would be enough to blow a blood vessel, just ask the OP, who was totally fine with rampant invasion, empty store shelves, 40% inflation, $7.00 gasoline and eggs, failed covid promises, savagely unequal trade, war on every continent, deep corruption in the WH, and rampant moral decay to our society.

The BBB doesn't reduce the debt or deficit

Unlike you I never lost my mind, so have already admitted the parade was stupid.

Now run to dismiss Mac, because if I'm not a MAGA idiot how are you supposed to feel superior?

 

[Mac1958]

Parade viewers left in droves long before Trump stood up to speak.
Is that all there is?

Meanwhile hundreds of thousands of No Kings protestors showed up on short notice nation wide.

At least he didn't make the military stop in mid parade and sing "Happy Birthday" to him.

So that's a positive right there.

I'm 70 now and I remember when parades used to be fun—bands, bunting, some big Army boom-booms for the kids to cheer over, every high school bandmaster doing their best Robert Preston cosplay. I remember when they were ceremonies of communal joy. You could mark your calendar by them. Homecoming parades. Veterans Day, which was Armistice Day when I was very young.

And then there was this leaden spectacle on Saturday, June 14.

I have never experienced such a joyless, lifeless, and sterile mass event in my entire life. Grim-faced soldiers, marching past half-empty grandstands, many of them obviously wanting to be somewhere else. No bands. Little bunting. Just piped-in rock music and MAGA hats. If this truly was meant to honor the 250 years of the United States Army, all we got was an endless procession of uniformed troops looking like they’d prefer to have been at Valley Forge. The president, sitting on the reviewing stand in that weird, forward-leaning attitude that he has, rarely smiling, a skunk at his own garden party. Scores of people being funneled through cattle-runs of metal grates just for a chance to sit on the lawn of the Washington Monument and listen to bad music and speeches so dull and listless that they’d have made Demosthenes get out of the business and open an olive oil stand.

I think there probably was more good feeling and genuine emotion when they took Jack Kennedy out to Arlington for the last time.

I never read about so many people who do so many things. This was more about a calming of the nation. Ironically, using the military. We are so out of practice.

That's only because the orange draft dodger used the US Army as a prop for HIS birthday parade.
