Frank Bruni, NYTimes - “…he ( #trump ) has been acting with a rapacity remarkable even for someone so famously given to greed. He’s creating an ostentatious White House ballroom in a new East Wing as tall as the main White House building. He’s attempting to stamp his visage on both sides of a $1 coin to commemorate the country’s 250th birthday. He’s constructing a whole new monument — a gaudy arch — for the occasion, too.

“He announced the building of a “golden fleet” of “Trump class” warships. He put his name on the Kennedy Center and on the U.S. Institute of Peace. “You’ve got to put your name on stuff, or no one remembers you,” he reportedly said during his first term in the presidency. In this second term, he’s in “don’t you dare forget me” mode, and the infinity of directions in which that impulse could sprawl is terrifying.” #TrumpRegime #Narcissism #Ostentation #EgoManiac

Call me crazy, but I don't think we should spend $92 million on a military parade honoring a draft dodger. Not while a single veteran needs healthcare, food, or housing that they cannot afford.
