imagine joining the military to serve the country and then being used as pencil dick compensation by a draft dodging con man. and then being the focus of ridicule by half the nation

As she and the other leftists marched, a young man, bare chested and wearing a bucket hat, approached a demonstration marshal. He seemed confused. He wanted to know where the protest for the opposite point of view could be found.

Whaaat? 😂

A secret service officer, trying to explain the general confusion, just sighed. “Nobody knows what’s going on.”

I'm dead 😂 😂 😂

She defended Trump’s decision to ban transgender troops from the military, and complained that Biden had subjected the military to political correctness and DEI initiatives. “The military is not a social experiment.”

The irony of saying this statement at a self-fellating and totally unnecessary military parade is too much

I snorted my coffee reading this.

"Kind of lame"?

We didn't have our service members proudly marching in lockstep. It was a bunch of old people that could barely keep formation, "marching" (and I use that term loosely) as if they just walked out of the bar and into their first day of basic training after being drafted.

Our "show of military strength" was a couple of old tanks creaking down the road, sounding like they were Ford Model Ts from the 1920s.

There was no music or marching band or anything for the parade to make its way through. There was no crowd to cheer them on; it was just dead silence. My daughter's high school graduation had better attendance and a more enthusiastic crowd.

Not that this should be a surprise to anyone at this point, but we looked like a laughing stock on the world stage. If that parade showed off the best that the US military had to offer, our military will never be taken seriously again. Seriously. A bunch of old people and a couple of tanks that were older than they were. That's what Trump gave. I've seen those carnivals that pop up from time to time in mall parking lots that had all the rigged games and unsafe rides, and they were still both cheaper than Trump's parade and more entertaining.

I expected Trump's parade to be a dud, but even he outdid himself with how bad that so-called parade was. Take out all the people that were forced to attend for whatever reason, and the people who attended could probably fit in a phone booth.

Captain Bonespurs says march more stiffly like the North Korean army.

Due to my interest in military hardware I watched the live stream by LazerPig, and the parade was absolutely garbage. Sure, they showed the Sherman, but no SPAA or engineering vehicles. They showed the Abrams and the Bradley, but nothing between that and WW2. There was so much objectively cool stuff they could've shown off, but it seemed they put no effort in it beyond pleasing the chief cheeto.

The Russian parade was also a disappointment, but the ones with actual quality hardware managed to be even more disappointing.

Fascists make everything worse. Even the thing they claim to be good at. Fucking clownshow.

A Trump project? A failure? Noooo...

I mean, it's not quite Google Graveyard level... but it's not good!

Here's the thing, they weren't all leftists. That was the beauty of the "No Kings" moniker, it encompassed all of the people pissed off. That includes a shit ton of republicans.

Worthless traitor cunt.

You know that Trump just told the generals to have 'a parade.'

Kim or Putin would know exactly which tanks and units he wanted, would have specified how many flyovers, and sweated all the details.
