CBS Morning News right now. Just showed an APC (I don't believe a tank)

rolling on the pavement/surface of the concrete in front of the Memorial. 😩

1. Probably a Bradley

They area a whole lot lighter than an M1 and will do less damage to the surface.

3. Whatzisface don't give a flaming crap if it did damage. Par for 'his' course.

5. You are correct, he really doesn't care

It could have been handled much differently, gave him what he wanted (tanks and toys) and provided a nice historical backdrop to the event using a display of our military through the ages which I suspect re-enactors would have flocked to help along with providing some educational opportunities for the attending public.

9. 'Another' CiC, not this so-called one. His motive was nothing short of rooted in SELF-CENTERED.

My dad, Navy and his two bros, Army and Air Force. WWII all. I'm proud of our military service people. And do understand the need for might to a degree. It would have been an educational holiday highlight if done in a proper vein and of purpose. But not this vainglory move on *'s part.

2. This display of tanks in D.C. will thrill conservatives, chill everyone else.

The Democrats need to cut an ad for the next election showing Trump and his tanks at the Lincoln Monument with the inevitable smirk.

This will look like a fascist rally.

4. There's a trove of 'material' that should be put to use. eom

[Midnight Writer]

7. Yes, i was surprised we didn't see footage last fall of McConnell talking of Social Security cuts.

Or of Putin and Trump in Helsinki. Putin confident as a terrier, Trump looking like a hound with his tail between his legs.

6. If tomorrow doesn't wind up a revelation for people,

I don’t know what will. People will get pissed for saying so, but this is just a small part of the repeat of early Nazi stuff. Only it’s clown school production values.

8. Armored Personnel Carriers

Are what they sound like.
