Dear CNBC, how about how much it costs us to support all these immigrants and ILLEGAL immigrants on Welfare?

Selective counting...

Which is about $90 million less than the fake Russian Witch Hunt. This is designed to bring the country together and the former is meant to tear the country apart. It’s funny that no one even sneezed at the cost of the Witch Hunt.

I not only want the parade, I'd like DJT to take the occasion to announce himself, Supreme Ruler in perpetuity.

Just tack it onto the national debt, no one will ever notice. I love how money is only a concern when it’s something Trump want. Wall, Parade. Apparently there is endless funds for which hunts, housing illegals and ‘Piss’ art.

I think the new “estimate” includes incidentals such as military pay for the participants, for government security details that would be getting paid anyway and for fuel, etc., that is already in stock.

..... Following the old rule that any governmental cost estimate will eventually cost around DOUBLE the estimated amount ... This sounds about right .....

Hmmmmmm, restaurants, bars, soda shoppes, coffee shops, assorted store will have to feed the crown. Souvenir shops will sell all sorts of paraphernalia, sounds like it will bring in lots of $$$ for the local economy? Of course there will also be those paid protestors by the bus load, to kill the popularity of it all and create a mess so the MSM can have a field day dissing the event.

I still want a Roman triumph. Trump in the middle on a golden chariot with a laurel crown, every crooked journalist, politician, and bureaucrat led naked and in chains to a grisly end at the foot of the Washington monument, their heads piled into a pyramid and the whole thing on pay per view. Heck, we'd ending up turning a profit.

But nobody listens to me.

The unnamed defense official is counting the fixed costs as variable. The personnel and equipment are already paid for.

Let’s start a rumor:

This is just a cover story to get the troops and tanks into the Capital, right after the election, to seize power.

I've never been a fan of showy military parades:

Ticker tape parades, YES.

Mr. President, NO to a Military parade, Yes to a ticker tape parade, that is true American....

The way I understand it, President Trump was inspired by France’s Bastille Day military review in Paris. They do this every year and seem to take pride in it. Don’t know how much it costs, but if France can pull this off, so can we. Veterans’ Day seems to be a good day to publicly show appreciation of our military.
