Trump’s July 4 military parade makes America ‘look smaller,’ Pete Buttigieg says

Democratic presidential candidate says the holiday should not be about Trump’s ego.

President Donald Trump’s plans for a grand military parade on the Fourth of July make America “look smaller,” Pete Buttigieg said Wednesday.

“Think about the strongest, toughest person you know. It’s probably not a person who goes around talking about how strong or tough they are,” the Democratic presidential candidate told CNN’s Jake Tapper in an interview. “I think the president’s trying to honor himself, and, again, my worry is it ultimately makes us look smaller,” he said. Buttigieg, the mayor of South Bend, Ind., and a military veteran, said Trump’s ego was overshadowing the nation’s birthday.

How is Trump honoring himself when he isn’t a veteran?

He "served" 7 months in a cubicle in Kabul, working for a joint CIA-DEA effort to reduce the heroin revenue of the Taliban.

It failed miserably...the Taliban's revenue's hit an all-time high. (Or was that the CIA's goal to begin with).

The POTUS is the head of state and should be leading a celebration on America’s birthday. It makes me happy knowing that even though the Dems and the media plus their cowardly NeverTrump Repukes are waging a 24/7/365 on the president he still gets under their skin with every action he does. He has them scared and he’s causing many of them to go psychotic!

Show of strength is a carrier group in the South China Sea. Honoring our freedom and war fighters is a celebration of our history and freedom. Buttplug is an idiot.

Mean Little Pete B*ttplug is desperate. He’s now at 4 percent in the polls and dropping fast.

Blacks in South Bend hate his guts, and they’re 30 percent of the city population.

He received ZERO percent support from blacks in the latest Quinnipac poll Bwaaah Ha Ha Ha Ha !

Yet, I’m sure Pete was more than happy with all of the ‘pride’ parades that recently took place.

So he’s not just a CIA spook, he’s another failed CIA spook. The CIA makes the FBI look good and the FBI is a disaster wrapped in incompetence.

He inserts penis up his rectum. That ends any argument he has.
