Guess what? Lots of democrats have served our country, many have given their lives. Many are career military.

Let me clue you in bucko.....politics matter not when you’re in the thick of it. You have no idea what you’re blabbering about.
Blah, blah, blah. You must think America is stupid! The rank and file's morale was at an all time low during Obama's rule.

He clearly hated the military. Now the morale is high. The new sheriff in town respects law and order and those that serve.

Talk about ignorant!

Plus he's incorrectly under the impression that a parade would be all about Trump....
Really? Who would it be about, then...?

Perhaps Donny can resurrect the uniforms Nixon proposed for the WH staff at one time, may as well make everyone look spiffy for the 'mine is bigger than yours' contest with Lil' Kim.

Why don't the Dems want to fund the military and reduce the training deaths that are increasing from lack of funding ? They need to put the money where your mouth is.

Is that why retired Generals are all criticizing the wacky parade idea? Military generals "clearly hate the military"?

And the "new sheriff in town respects law and order", which is why he's under a vast criminal investigation that makes Watergate look like a silly joke?

I just keep telling myself, “ three more years”. Even if he wins re-election, I’ll be retired and living outside of merica.

Plenty. I could probably even spare some for Dear Leader, who seems to be about three quarts low.

Why don't the republicans want to audit the Pentagon to find out exactly how most of our taxpayer dollars are being wasted and why?

Probably because the U.S. outspends the entire planet in military spending, with the vast majority of that money going to contractors and third parties, leading to epic corruption and hundreds of billions in waste.

Funny that Trump cultists love to blame "welfare moms" (codeword for blacks) and the like, but have no problem spending like 1000x more on booze, sex parties, massive kickbacks etc. in the military. Have you been following the latest epic military scandal? The Fat Leonard security breach?
