If true, WHICH ISN’T A GIVEN, I’m becoming very frosty towards this parade.

Almost as much as the Mueller investigation.

“The parade will take place in the nation's capital on Nov. 10 and will feature armored vehicles, aircraft flyovers and period uniforms.”

There is a lot a government wasteful spending.

But special uniforms for when our military women are menstruating has to be the most ridiculous.

A Pentagon spokesman said in an email to CNBC that the Defense Department expects to make an announcement soon, but he would not comment further.

Call me fundamentally skeptical.

Fake Pentagon spokesman?

Sends them information in an email?

How much did Obama’s trip to Africa cost?

How much did each trip to Hawaii cost?

Eight times the initial estimate? Either someone screwed up badly on the first estimate or they’re padding the cost in the hopes it will get cancelled.

May not make sense, but when did the LSM every tell the truth about President Trump?

DUMBO sent our enemies over $400 Billion, the Pressitutes seem to forget.

On one hand, a debtor nation shouldn’t be spending money on unnecessary things.
But on the other hand, this parade will certainly annoy the liberals.

So I guess I’m neutral here.

Shades of party leaders reviewing the parade from a platform in Red Square or Pyongyang.

Tell me this won’t really happen.

I just find it so hilarious how fiscally conservative Dimms and their media lackeys get when a Republican is in the White House. Not a single word from them about how wasteful and financially criminal Obozo was for eight miserable years.

I am against the idea of a military parade.

It will feed the “megalomaniac” theme of the Left towards Trump, and will be convincing to too many in that regard, because other than in celebration of a hard won peace such a parade is out of character with U.S. traditions. To me it is the kind of thing we learned to expect from folks like the Soviets, the Chinese or North Korea, and we always looked and said that was not like us. Trump should not open himself up to that noticeable comparison, for whatever reason he thinks it is a legitimate idea - it isn’t.

I will ask Congress to try to cut the funds for it, or restrict the use of funds from going to it. That is how bad of an idea I think it is.

Calling BS. Troops are paid based on a monthly salary, no overtime, and there are plenty in the local DC area and surrounding areas, so travel costs would be minimal.

Costs for aircraft and land vehicles, fuel, and maintenance, again, are already budgeted. Unless they're shipping folks and equipment from all over the U.S., and the world, these numbers are B.S.

Sounds more appropriate for a totalitarian country no matter what the cost.

My question is — can’t we just have a formation from each service march along the route, WITHOUT all the hardware?

92 million that’s only $3 per illegal and Mexico will pay for it!

Parade on!

Hey, its only $2 per abortee, and the Clinton Foundation will pay for it.

Parade on!
