You just don't project "happy." A very common trait amongst Trumplings these days. They're beginning to grasp that the light at the end of the tunnel is the headlight of a fast approaching locomotive.

Getting back to the the thread topic, let's have a parade in a real american city rather than the nasty DC swamp.
Pass that sage advice on to tRump, please.

Of course, DC was his choice. But maybe he'll listen to you. He's such a good listener.

"We'll see."

I'm sad for you that this is all you saw from our nation's capital.

No wonder you think America isn't already great.

The American Legion came out against it. They want the troops home and better care for the veterans.

How anyone can argue that a parade the vets don't want is a good use of funds is beyond me.

I suppose all of them think Trump is a brilliant guru of a president, also.

Is your business perhaps some sort of outreach work with delusional individuals?

If so, bravo for your efforts.

Honestly, it's that posture and vacant look on his face he gets at times that really leads me to suspect that he has dementia.

Good observation.


Vacant is such an apt description.

Well, your "freak show" comment aside, Pride Month parades are not to INSTILL pride. They are because the community already HAS pride and enjoys getting together.

However, if Trump could throw a military parade for the cost of the average pride parade in the average city, I'd sign off on it.

In the end, I believe Trump will be a GOOD thing for America. When Trump loses in 2020 or is removed from office before that, America will come together stronger than ever before. After Trump, we will bounce back as a much stronger, more united America.

We'll still have two major parties manned by far too many who put party over country. What reason(s) is there to believe that will change?

Personally, I wish Trump had run as an (I), while I think he's a horrible POTUS, if he could've won as an (I) I would have voted for him as it would've given both the (D)s and the (R)s the smackdown they so richly deserve.

WE have large parades on Memorial Day in small towns across the country. He does not know this.

We show our pride in our ability to speak freely. Trump does not believe in free speech.

I hope President Macron tells the ORANGE SPHINCTER TO GO TO H***!

Like, a day of veterans and a day for memorial.

Just once it would have been nice to honor America's heroes that way. Sigh.
And if cities and towns all over the country would only hold parades...
