A Military Parade that would be all about Trump's Ego

1. Why can't they just tell the moron

NO, WE CANNOT AND WILL NOT DO IT.

Why do they have to ponder to his whims? I don't get it, when are they going to act in a way that he MAY understand (not betting on him understanding anything), that he is not there to do whatever he wants?

This situation cannot be more insane...what is going on? MUUULLLEEEERR where are you? Why are you taking so long?

2. Mueller needs to get all his ducks in a row

You don't walk in with half cocked charges and hope they stick. They need to do all the research necessary to bring charges to all those in the Current administration who have had contact with Russian operatives, they need to weed out those currently in government who have broken the law and if that takes getting people like Mike Pence and even Speaker Ryan, than let him do his job. He is the best in this business and will do a complete job so no one who has broken the law will get away with it.

CBS News has stated in the past that this investigation is on going and might even take years to gather all of the information, I hope it doesn't come to that, but if they can get this president impeached (The fucking Republicans have to want it too.. but they are so fucked up, maybe Mueller will be looking into their practices as well) The ONLY WAY REPUBLICANS IN congress will impeach this president is if THEIR FUCKING JOBS ARE ON THE LINE.

3. Bastille day? When they chopped off the heads of the super rich?

He wants to recreate Bastille Day?

4. Ugh. I'm screaming at this video.

What is the difference between a parade after the end of a WAR, and a parade to make Donald Trump feel big?

5. Will tr-dump demand a full Nazi salute.....

...... each military member as they file by during the Orange Shit-gibbon Fascist parade ?

6. Trump says he wants his parade to be more spectacular than the Bastille Day one in France

Yes, it's always about his ego. I wonder if he'll have the Thunderbirds and Blue Angels spell out "TRUMP" as they fly down the boulevard.

The guest makes a good point about funding for veterans' mental health programs. Several million dollars (my guess is it would cost nearly $10 million to put on Trump's extravaganza) would go a long way toward veteran healthcare and family services. Plus there's the cost of repositioning the troops and equipment, logistics for providing housing, food and transportation for those who will be marching, and wear and tear on the aircraft and ground equipment.

He'll definitely want the B-1, B-2 and other U.S. military aircraft, and especially the B-52, which is a huge bomber capable of carrying multiple nuclear devices.

All because of his fragile ego.

RESIST!
