Donald Trump was unhappy with his sparsely attended military parade over the weekend and blamed it on Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, biographer Michael Wolff revealed.

Wolff told The Daily Beast Podcast that Trump wanted a “menacing” show of force to celebrate the Army’s 250th anniversary and his 79th birthday on Saturday—but got a “festive” parade instead.

“He’s p---ed off at the soldiers,” Wolff said. “He’s accusing them of hamming it up, and by that, he seems to mean that they were having a good time, that they were waving, that they were enjoying themselves and showing a convivial face rather than a military face.”

I don't know what to tell you, Turnip, except what we've been saying all along. Hire a bunch of clowns, expect a circus.

His floppy parade was a disappointment? How scandelous.

For Trump's next birthday, he will sell a parade of NFTs featuring lilly-white AI-generated military warriors with faces so hard it will make his pussy wet.

Having read a couple of Michael Wolff's books, I'm both stunned and unsurprised they're letting him wander around the trumpworld again.

He describes first person accounts of the most horrifying, corrupt, disgusting, pathetic episodes of demented rapist assholery and everybody's like "well it's normal". It's amazing.

How any journalist from a corporate news sewer can read these and then write the toothless dreck they do about this administration is plainly a crime.

Is this why he's bombing Iran? A city will be destroyed and many people killed because his fee fees were hurt. Hey billionaires and/or republicans, look how he treated Musk, Lindell and Giuliani, just saying.

LOL, like it's entirely on the drunkard from Faux.

Did donvict want everyone doing a stupid pose like his ridiculous mugshot photo? Or the one he did for his "presidential" photo?

“We had the parade the other day. They said 100 percent chance of rain. It didn’t rain,” Trump told Mark Carney as the Canadian prime minister smiled politely.

Is this of all things what gets him finally fired?

[-] [email protected] 11 points 2 days ago

lol. The first time he almost got fired was because he tried to blackmail the president of Ukraine. The second time, it was because he demanded the governor of Georgia “find votes“ for him so he could win the 2020 election.

And neither of those got him fired. In fact, you may notice that he’s been reelected.

AZ is correct I’m talking about Hegseth.

Just like North Korea. Dear leader has to find someone to blame. Will it be wild dogs, or antiaircraft cannon?
