Forget the cops and National Guards. Let's bring back Nixon's guards. Don's verion will allow for more gold braid.

I think you have made a mistake in posting a link. Please try to correct it, since this thread is meaningless without access to whatever it is you're on about.

2. I remember that. Nixon was mocked so badly that his uniformed palace guard

lasted about 20 minutes.

3. The uniforms were soon donated to a high school marching band.

But compared to the style Trump would certainly prefer, they look absolutely minimalist.

6. Thanks I remember laughing a lot when Dickie brought them out.

I was in the marines for 4 years and never even contemplated getting the embarrassing dress blues. If we wanted them we had to buy them. I never saw anyone in the barracks wear one. If they had they would have been laughed out of the barracks.
