Trump cancels military parade, plans to attend parade in Paris

How embarrassing for Trump!

That being said, being cancelled is the next best thing to having Trump’s heel spurs being run over by an M1.

Libs complained when Trump wanted a military parade. Now that Trump is giving the libs what they want, they’re mocking him? Seriously, you can’t win with these people.

Trump should un-cancel the parade and double the size of it. That’ll make libs heads explode.

This parade was only an ego-stroking stunt for the petulant child known as trump.

Yeah, but Hillary.

As a DC resident, whose local taxes would have gone to pay for this, I’m glad it’s not happening.

I went to DC last year for a work conference. NEVER AGAIN!!
45 minutes to travel 3 miles. Nope I’d rather shoot myself.

Does this mean that we are invading France?

That is going to cost a lot more.

Less. First guy off the boat stomps his foot and they’ll surrender.

One of the main reasons I moved. Congestion is awful.

As a citizen of The Republic whose Centgov tribute would have gone to pay for this and who had to march in a couple of these fool things:

Me too.

Its funny when people say the Soldiers marching in these things feel honored. MAYBE one out of every 100 Soldiers actually want to be involved in these dog and pony shows.

DC is one of the greatest cities in the world. Come back, enjoy the sites, don’t be so stressed.

Seeing the sites is really cool. The very first time I went decades ago I thought I could just walk around from Monument to Monument. What felt like 50 days later I reached the second one.

I’m sure Macron is thrilled he has to suffer Trump again.

hwyflier · 2018-08-18T00:10:05.814Z

I’m against all parades.

I am for any literal dog and pony shows.

I heard Sneaky and some others here are going to do drills for him as a compromise. Here is video of them practicing.

WuWei · 2018-08-18T02:18:58.228Z

That’s funny.

Blackwolf · 2018-08-18T05:59:17.915Z

Wonder if the French would consider keeping him.

Hell, we’ll throw in the Kardashians.

Trump: I’m only going to spend $9 million taxpayer dollars on a totally needless trip (vacation) to Paris to watch a parade than spend $92 million taxpayers dollars on a totally needless military parade here at home.

Yay me!

Holy cow - you mean Donald just saved the US taxpayers $83 million? OMG he’s the best! Most fiscally responsible president in the history of ever! MAGA

The sad thing is that is exactly how Trump will think but what’s even more disturbing is that his supporters and those that post here daily will actually hold this up as an example of Trump delivering on promises to cut spending.

Way to queer the deal.

Yes, you have to strategic if your walking. We live on Cap Hill and can get to the mall side of the Capitol building in a 15 min walk, but then it’s ankther 2 mikes to the Lincoln Memorial.

If you ever get back, wait until dark and visit all the sisters at night. The Lincoln, WWII, Korean, Vietnam and MLk memorials are all close together and incredible all lit up at night.
