Cool your jets.

I, too, personally crossed paths with John F. Kennedy on more than one occasion. And I certainly do know who he was and what he stood for. After all, it was largely my generation who took those words to heart and joined the Peace Corps, Volunteers in Service to America, and Teach for America, in addition to less well known programs like the Appalachian Volunteers.

That same generation - mine - is still turning out in large numbers to speak out against Trump's corruption and desecration of traditional American ideals, and is still working to change things for the better.

If you think Trump ran for president in order to serve this country rather than to serve his own interests, well, you might want to think again. It appears your judgment of Trump is as off-base as is your judgment of me.

January 21 is not July 4.

Let him have his celebration on the Mall. If it gets political, he gets to pay for it.

Bet he can't make a speech without making it all about him.
Trump never uses his own money.

Not all the Dem candidates want “free everything.” Look at more middle of the road candidates Mayor Pete Buttigieg, Sen. Amy Klobuchar, Gov John Hickenlooper, Kirsten Gillibrand, Tulsi Gabbard, Michael Bennet.

Maybe part of the objection people have to this display of macho is that it will cost about $92 million.

I think what everyone is missing is that this is another Trump trap! By doing this, he is making the Democrats come out, seemingly "against the 4th of July."

This is genius!

Trump might not know his tanks but no one can fault his enthusiasm for America.
An example of having one be fooled. He has no "enthusiasm for America", he is just portraying that he is "patriotic", to feed into the perception of by his fans, using them for an audience to be able to criticize and complain to.
