Having a military parade for a leaders birthday is not normal. Wtf USA. Protest harder please, actually get reform this time.
We are relying on you, since the USA is a superpower with many countries under your thumb, this affects more than just you

We had 12.1M out on Saturday. That’s more than double the last protest. We’re getting there.
200k expected. 20k attended. Over 50k protested in DC beforehand. 11M protested nationwide.
Happy Birthday, Dickhead.
I hope he gets our birthday wish and he keels over. That'd be fucking epic.
I attended a No Kings rally in a small suburb that nobody here has probably ever heard of. We easily beat Trump's numbers. LOL
I only glimpsed it on the news channels on the TVs at the gym yesterday. It's interesting that it was originally hyped as a birthday parade for him, but all the clips on the news were labeling it as a parade to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the army. I guess the birthday parade shit didn't poll well with anybody.
Also pretty hilarious that nobody really celebrates the 250th anniversary of anything.
To be fair, most things dont make it to 250 years. I'm sure July 4th next year will be pretty poppin, though.
Usually you celebrate the xxxth birthday of someone/-thing even when they're dead. Last year for example was the 300th birthday of Casper David Friedrich, a painter. This year my city is celeberating it's 750th birthday and I believe the university will soon celebrate its 600th birthday
Most...I didn't say none...

20k attended? Damn, they could have just given everybody $2000 and skipped the $40m parade. I'm sure people would have enjoyed it more.
Or just, y’know, fund the VA.
Fund universal healthcare. Doesn’t sit well with me that people willing to kill for a career get any special treatment at all.
Don't worry Republicans feel the same way and are actively trying to remove that special treatment
Do you think he cried a little? I hope he cried a little.
11m? I guess that 3.5% rule is about to be put to the test.
The thing with the 3.5% that most people keep missing, is that it needs to be 3.5% of the population consistently engaged in protest, not just in a one off event.

Oh yeah, I remember hearing something about a parade, shame it ended up being the same day as all those cool protests 🤔
I saw the President sitting down and being all frumpy rather than standing on a platform and saluting the troops as they walked by.
Scar at least gave good speeches and could sing.
I was in the pool!
It shrinks?
Is that bottom picture really from trump's parade?
Yes it is.
I avoided reading anything about it so this is the first one I've seen. I thought it was fake but I'm glad it didn't look like the top picture.
I dunno. If you're going to do fascist military display at least do it right. This fascism lite crap is all the evil but none of the decorum. He just does everything so shitty.
So it was basically the McDonald's of military parades, got it. What more could you expect from McDonald Trump.
how have I not seen this use of McDonald before?!

i saw the video on publicfreakout, all the army members in the parade, look so sad.
Good.
It looked like JROTC compared to parades overseas
very low energy, and very demoralized people.
Do you think Donny was able to impress his friends?
I don't think Donald Trump is a boss. I think he's owned. Like a puppet of organized crime. I kind of wish people would understand how real this world really is and see beyond the talking head puppetry. Getting trump out of the presidency is only like cutting off the finger of the real perpetrators. They are still alive without him.
He's definitely only a part of a far larger problem, but he's also the face and voice of the MAGA cult. It feels like they've tried a few times too pass on that torch but they're kinda stuck with him now.
The lines between corporate America, the American government, and organized crime are thin to non-existent.

You know this going to get under trump's skin
Why aren't they kicking as high as these guys?
Sir, that's a burlesque play making fun of Nazis.
Poor Cheeto Shitler...
It just seems like they are trying hard to make life like the past instead of learning to ride the wave of the universe and existence, building and growing off what God/universe provides.
