Is he 11 years old? What kind of loser bitch asks for a parade on their birthday? Or like, at all?
Name one honorable person that has requested a parade in their honor.
He's wanted one ever since he was invited to the French défilé by Macron during his first term. For whatever reason dictators love this shit (I'm not saying Macron is one, just that it made a huge impression on Trump).
Because it's some "tough guy" shit to parade the thousands of people and millions of taxpayers dollars you can order to sacrifice for your decisions.
Also in France, getting invited to the official tribunes is an entire little game of influence and power. Mfs wouldn't even invite my grandmother once as the widow of a WW2 soldier and Légion d'Honneur recipient, just so she could remember her husband one last time, because all the seats were taken by rich assholes and various other kinds of Macron's sycophants.
US be like: sorry, we simply have no money for bike lanes or sidewalk repairs :(
And yet the US Army has infinite money
To be fair, 16 million would only get you a few dozen kilometers of bike lane and only if its the shitty painted on ones. If you wanna build actual height difference protected bike lanes, 16 million is basically nothing.
But also this parade will probably cost upwards of 100 million if you actually included all the invisible secondary costs.
I think it really depends. My city was able to build about two miles (IIRC) of fully separated multi-use path along a busy arterial for I wanna say about $4 million. The beauty, of course, is that well constructed bike and pedestrian paths can last a lifetime, where car infra needs constant replacing, so it's a really good investment.
16 million is only the cost of the damage to the roads. The parade itself is estimated to cost $45 million and that’s assumed to be an underestimate.

You mean this ridiculous clown is costing us $45 million?
American military helicopters seem to have a hard enough time not crashing into things when there's only one of them flying around
Oh I do hope there is a spectacle.
And that's just the infrastructure, never mind the untold damage it costs to the country.
You mean the "L&S parade (Losers and Suckers) parade?
TACO will not repair the streets, those roads will look like the shit in Siberia.
he'll say robot Biden used one of its time travel functions that didnt work very well and did some damage
Here’s the plan, we all show up, we boo and throw tacos.
ICE will detain so much people on June 14th and I dont mean as I wish it happens, but they are detaining even protesters, I bet I got you thinking I am talking about Palestine protests but no it was people declining to stop blocking the road from ICE driving by because of what they are doing
They have no accountability either in court (not like disrespecting orders is giving them any stop to this if no one is enforcing them to do so)
ICE did not respond to CBS News New York's questions about how many people were detained by the agency and why.
They only talk to media when they know they wont be fact-checked or interrupted from spitting nonsense
Taco's filled with shit? Cause a regular tace would be a waste.
Agreed!
Where have I seen this kind of parade before?
his supporters and the GOP
Hitler was an evil motherfucker, but at least he looked good doing it.
No doubt .. wait what? What do you mean looked good doing it ??
Does it rhyme with Nussia?
King Donald.
Dear Leader Taco
He took inspiration from the NK military parades.
He has specifically wanted one since last term when he saw one in France.

So this is what he meant by "infrastructure week"
Sounds like Russia and China.
Just build some cardboard armor around humvees to look like Abrams and he won’t know the difference, driving 1 MBT around on pavement in a city is fucking stupid (they are so heavy the tracks chew up road pavement like dirt), a couple dozen is so so dumb
Ah here we go, not a problem at all just line the streets with metal, in summer in a swamp 👍
Think he'll rebuild the roads from pavement to concrete like maybe some Germans did?
