    I will phrase it more properly.

    Do you truly believe that Donald Trump, the man who is notorious for his theatrics, a man who already made a request for military vehicles to be paraded during his inauguration, would settle for anything less than the "best?" And since the US military is already the largest and best, does it seem like a stretch to imagine that Donald Trump would request the same of his parade?

    He made a similar promise and only fulfilled the promise after intensive journalistic pressure.

    This is a guy whose ego is so weak he gets into twitter fights with literally anyone who insults him and you think he’ll be fine with being upstaged by France?

    LOL

    Sure, you nailed it MrTLegal. As objective and neutral an opinion as I've ever read.

    What's your basis for pretending it's anything less than that? Trump insists on doing everything "bigly." Even his failures are the best.

    I've already indicated what I'm basing my comments on. It's what I have read.

    I've explained that I may not have all the information that is currently available, and I've asked for additional information to confirm what is being suggested, or implied, by some.

    So, what's the problem? You don't have any information? If not, how could you judge what I've posted?

    I am not for or against the parade because this is basicly just an idea by trump without any definate form or shape

    But in general I ahpgreecit would cost a few million dollars that couuld be better spent

    But unlike liberals with their hair on fire seem to think I dont believe its grounds for impeachment

    Yes, it does.

    Please post the proof to support your claim. Your opinion is not that.

    Of course, you can suggest that in your opinion you believe what you have stated is true. But that's all it is.

    I haven't anything that suggest fighter jet fly overs and tanks. But hey, maybe I missed that.

    Well, in my opinion, the weak are the ones who need to invent stories to feed their bias.

    I tend to not pay much attention to displays of weakness like that.

    How about instead of having an expensive parade he gives that money to the families of fallen vets or homeless vets, I would applaud him for that. Of course he wouldn't consider that though because he's a narcissistic POS who doesn't actually care but has convinced the easily persuaded sheepish alt right that hes the ultimate American

    Apparently, per the America-hating commie contingency, Veterans Day Parades are an example of Nazism.

    Just a hypothetical, he wants to expand the military, would you be willing to take an additional 10% cut in pay to directly fund increased military?

    I know what the French parade looked like, and it was a lot more than soldiers marching past. By the way, where did you read that there are enough military personnel in the D.C. region to fill out a parade?

    The proof is the link - which is underlined to make it easier to spot.

    But hey, if you want to move the goal posts and claim that the only proof would be a detailed and published plan of the upcoming parade, you go ahead.

    Well, there are a number of significant Military installations from every branch of the military in and around Washington D.C..

    Of course, there is a question of how many personnel would be required.
