    I repeat, there were no military vehicles in the Independence day parade.

    Kings and Queens are usually accepted as some form of nobility. I can’t see anything noble about President Combover.
    Besides, if he’s emulating anyone it’s Putin.

    The root cause of Independence Day is military. No military, no liberty, no independence day, no USA.

    If you can prove that do it otherwise ****. Trump is stealing from the taxpyers openly, by turning a public fourth of july event into a political rally where he tries to ban his opponents from attending and invites all of his major doners.

    Please show me where he banned anyone. Seems to me there were tens of thousands watching the festivities. It was a 4th of july program I heard nothing political from his speech.

    I heard about it. Good for Trump, and I hope he meant it. We will see.

    I read Trump's 4th of July speech, and it was exactly as I had predicted to you. He made it a celebration of the nation and our military.

    All the Trump-haters who claimed he was going to politicize this, as some kind of a political campaign stunt, had to eat crow.

    The military is the USA and the USA is the military at the very core of its national existence.

    The event in general and the speech in particular defied all the leftist predictions and was a rousing success. It was nonpartisan patriotic barn burner and the left hates both those things so of course they hated the speech and the event.

    The pilots all have to get their quota of flying hours in the seat to remain qualified on their aircraft.

    The railroad (Norfolk Southern?) didn't grow its balance sheet much carrying a few tanks on its rolling stock.

    July 4 is a celebration of our freedom and peace, not our military. There is a time and a place for a military celebration and it is known as
    Veterans Day. A show of war is not for July 4. However, that charlatan can do no wrong in your gullible mind.

    This was a very small "Rally" for uncle Donny but he got to play with his toy soldiers and tanks...he even had airplanes.

    What the lefties don't gather is President Trump is using them as useful idiots for his upcoming campaign. The 25 or socialist candidates have fallen into a trap and when, during one debate all ten of them raised their hand to the question, should all illegals receive free medical care, that may have helped seal their loss. All Trump has to do is run on the record high economy and the spirit of patriotism and run clips of all the petulant democrats whining about Trump's completely neutral parade on America's birthday quickly followed by them demanding freeshit for everybody.

    LOL, the left went full jump the shark about Trump and the 4th. They set very low expectations. When you Predict a Tienenman Square, all Trump has to do to look like the winner is not murder 10,000 civilians.

    Nah you won't. Like your post, you have already shown you have no sympathy for the heroic dead based on political bias.

    We do not need to be reminded of our military power. The US and the rest of the world knows we stand out in that area. This big military parade was just a waste of money. It could have been better spent by donating it to our homeless veterans.
