Missing The PointI take it all back. $45 million was a small price to pay to humiliate President Trump at his own parade and mobilize millions of Americans across the nation to demonstrate against him.
system619@MissingThePt it's really not for Trump it's the 250thThe U.S. Army's 250th anniversary parade, held in Washington, D.C. on June 14, 2025, is estimated to have cost between $25 million and $45 million. Some reports suggest the cost could be as high as $92 million, including $13 million for police expenses alone, according to Oregon Public Broadcasting.
Kirsty@Kirsty @MissingThePt if I said anything that was rude not my intention, and very sorry, I respect everyone.
It was my response that was rude. Sorry.
Unfortunately, no matter the “official” occasion, it will be seen as Trump’s birthday parade.
I enjoyed the snippets I saw of soldiers marching out of time and others waving to the crowd from tanks.
Clearly not drilled in the art of parading. And that’s fine - I’m sure they spend their time on more valuable training exercises.
@Kirsty @MissingThePt ahh it's all good, I'm an old IRCER things get heated sometimes, no sweat off my balls, LOL
