You realize Trump wants heavy tanks for this, right? It's not just marching. DCs streets weren't designed to bear tanks.

If you parade military vehicles on roads they weren't built to accommodate, unlike places like France or Russia which specifically designed their roads FOR these parades, you're going to cause massive damage. This isn't rocket science


The last U.S. military parade, in 1991, celebrated victory in the Gulf War. Some 8,800 veterans of Desert Storm, led by Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf, marched down Constitution Avenue in Washington. Street lights were removed along the parade route to make it easier for tanks to maneuver. At least 200,000 people gathered to watch.

oh nooo they had to temporarily remove street lights, holy fuck that's some insane damage to those streets right there guys!

Is going to include all of the homeless and forgotten vets, or is it only going to be the ones that look presentable so as to give the impression that our vets aren't sorely mistreated?

That's an act. As soon as they get out, the government doesn't give a shit about them.

The reason they don't help homeless vets is so they can say "but what about our homeless vets?!"

The UK does not have major parades on the scale Trump wants. He wants one of those North Korea/Third Reich style parades that you only get in wannabe fascist shitholes. Let's not pretend all this outrage is over some goofy little local veterans parade. And, maybe, France is wrong on this issue. Republicans mention France as one of those Western European countries that has become overrun by Sharia, but now they are the only Western European country to hold a parade like this and we should copy them?

Friendly reminder: If you want to make an argument that paints the US positively, don't compare us to countries like Colombia and Honduras

A lot of the military doesn't want this. Vets and officers have said it's a waste of time and money.

It's not about honoring the military it's about honoring Trump. He is using the military to raise his own ego.

We already have days to honor our military. This military parade isn't needed.

it's stupid and wasteful, but I don't see the big deal since we all know America is on top militarily which is why other countries do it (to convince themselves they're also relevant)
i'd prefer we don't have it, but it's not something I feel strongly about unlike other things he's trying to do

Now I will only speak for France but their parade is a part of their celebration for Bastille day and in honor of the French revolution. It is something they have done for over a hundred years. It's like fireworks on the forth of July,

No one actually believes that Trump has anything else on his mind. The military itself is against this farce.

Once per month may be pushing it. I think quarterly would be good enough. It could get old if it was more frequent.

The truly lucky ones will be allowed to present their wives and daughters to his MAGAness as tribute. By Trump, do I envy them.

Well...America shouldn't aspire to be like other s***hole countries.

Trump is doing this to push his propaganda agenda to make liberals seem unpatriotic at the expense of taxpayer money. Just imagine the news headlines and tweets. And trumpers wonder why they get called fascists.

Wasted money under the disguise of honoring veterans. This isn't a veterans march. This is an active and armed milarty parade with tanks and most troops don't support this because they are too busy. Honor our veterans in other ways like giving them a helping hand they deserve instead of cutting their benefits.
