Looks like it’s happening. Trump wants a grand military parade.

[MomentsofSanity]

Something nornally seen in military dictatorships but apparently it’s now in the planning phase. North Korea would be so proud.

Fucking no. This fucking asshole.

Further proof of his totally not so small that you'd question how he managed to procreate penis.

Conservatives will love this. They'll just eat it right up.

Will they salute him while goose stepping down Pennsylvania avenue?

Trump can fund this out of his own pocket, not with my tax dollars please.

Ok, what exactly is wrong with this if it happens? The military does exhibitions and shows off all the time. I think you are approaching Jade Helm land.

When was the last time the military paraded heavy weapons and a bunch of troops though the capital at the whim of the President who has parade envy?

"Parade envy"- I love it.

I take it that Trump is going full bread & circuses at this point...

What does this have to do with Jade Helm? No conspiracy theories found. I just don't want tax payer money spent on another of Trump's vanity projects, which is all this is. It's well known that the US has far and away the strongest military in the world. We don't need a parade.

As long as you and the rest of the 35% pay for it, I wouldn't care.

Only took sixty seconds...

There is nothing wrong with it, just like there is nothing wrong with the president growing a Hilter mustache. Except that wouldn't be a waste of tax money.

 

[brycejones]

Of course he wants to do have a military parade. All the best douche bags do it.

 

[SlowSpyder]

We have a lot of military exhibitions. I think this is making something out of nothing.

 

[Puffnstuff]

Should we act surprised by this?

Yes, it is making a parade out of Trump's nothing.

Show me a single event where military hardware is paraded through the streets. Tanks, missile launchers. Military jets in the sky. It doesn’t happen and there’s a reason it hasn’t happened. They have always been kept to small local events.

 

[theeedude]

This is the logical conclusion for the conservative movement.

No. As a retired veteran I can tell you why. Because Tyrants use large shows of military force at home to intimidate the population.

It is counter to everything the USA stands for.

When does it become fascism in your mind?

The last time I can recall an event even close to what's proposed in the capital was in the early 90s after Gulf War 1. So like the better part of 30 years and there was a reason.

When a Democrat does it. Duh!

The link I provided had examples. The Blue Angels fly planes, in cities on the ocean we have events where battleships and carriers are shown off. Don't you think cruising some carriers and battleships past a crowd is exactly that?

 

[MomentsofSanity]

Imagine if Obama had proposed this? Jade Helm is right. Conservatives would have shit in their pants and burned everything to the ground.

 

[SlowSpyder]

When it is actually fascist activities and not just scared lefties shitting their pants over the idea of a parade.

Bullshit. Your link is a false equivelency. Show me where there has been a parade of this scale. Like Bastille day in France which apparently was his motivation for this. You can’t.
