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.

Great photo op for dictator comparisons too. Oh well. March on and enjoy the propaganda.
