Your opinion of me, is not only wrong, it's also irrelevant to the topic. It only speaks to how those who support Clinton, make attempt to address this woman's failings.

It's clear enough she planned to have a huge fireworks display on the Hudson. They canceled it at the last moment when it became less clear they were going to win by a landslide. The fact of the matter is they spent 10s of millions on her "victory" venue. A venue that she never used.

And I thought Trump was the one with an ego.
The answer is "YES". Fireworks are expensive, so this figure is nothing strange.

For Macy's:
By the Numbers: Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks Spectacular | StyleCaster

$6 Million: The estimated cost that Macy’s coughs up for the fireworks alone! That, of course, doesn’t include the added costs for big acts such as Mariah Carey, Tim McGraw, and Usher.

So let's not hammer Hillary on the cost itself. The intend was a bit too much maybe, but the cost, totally realistic.
