KRASNOV was disappointed by his Army parade, wants the Navy to do it over [View all]
Unfortunately, the few of my shipmates from 50 years ago and the USN vets at the VFW have turned out to be wingnuts and now MAGAts. Plus BANNON and the replacement for Art BELL, George NOORY, not to mention the Swiftbots, and I think their ghostwriter Jerome CORSI. So a muntiny ain't likely on this bounty of public funding and tyrant ego.

Trump Was Disappointed By the Army Parade On His Bday and Wants to Try Again
President Trump will reportedly have another big boy military parade later this year. ....
The president was reportedly so disappointed by the marching the marching specifically that he is planning to throw himself another tyrant parade, this time featuring the Navy. The Wall Street Journal has this gem of a nugget in a new report on how Trump has become bolder in his autocratic tendencies during his second term:
"Trump has also pushed the optics of the presidency in a monarchical direction, holding a military parade in June for the Armys 250th birthday. Officials had thwarted a similar one in his first term by arguing it would look like a third-world spectacle. After the Washington parade, Trump told aides he was disappointed with the marching, and the U.S. Navy is trying to plan a bigger celebration this fall, hoping for a shimmering spectacle with seacraft, administration officials said."
The Navy will also mark its 250th anniversary in October, but has not yet announced any plans to celebrate the occasion. Sounds like theyre gonna throw themselves a birthday party whether they want to or not.
