200k expected. 20k attended. Over 50k protested in DC beforehand. 11M protested nationwide.
Happy Birthday, Dickhead.
I attended a No Kings rally in a small suburb that nobody here has probably ever heard of. We easily beat Trump’s numbers. LOL
20k attended? Damn, they could have just given everybody $2000 and skipped the $40m parade. I’m sure people would have enjoyed it more.
Or just, y’know, fund the VA.
Fund universal healthcare. Doesn’t sit well with me that people willing to kill for a career get any special treatment at all.
Don’t worry Republicans feel the same way and are actively trying to remove that special treatment
Why would we try to help “those losers”
And “suckers” don’t forget
The Craigslist post didn’t bring in enough seatfillers?
I wonder if that was real or not, but I don’t wanna stop the fun lol
I only glimpsed it on the news channels on the TVs at the gym yesterday. It’s interesting that it was originally hyped as a birthday parade for him, but all the clips on the news were labeling it as a parade to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the army. I guess the birthday parade shit didn’t poll well with anybody.
Also pretty hilarious that nobody really celebrates the 250th anniversary of anything.
To be fair, most things dont make it to 250 years. I’m sure July 4th next year will be pretty poppin, though.
Do you think he cried a little? I hope he cried a little.
11m? I guess that 3.5% rule is about to be put to the test.
The thing with the 3.5% that most people keep missing, is that it needs to be 3.5% of the population consistently engaged in protest, not just in a one off event.
Also that it is bullshit.
Where were the DC protests? That sounds like a large number and I know the No Kings protest organizers excluded DC from their planning because they wanted to draw focus away from there. If it was 500k in DC that would have been fairly substantial because that would be larger than the 2017 DC women’s march, which was the largest protest since the Vietnam war and was so large it encompassed most of the national mall. You couldn’t actually march anywhere because people were shoulder to shoulder.
It was 50k, not 500k. I mistyped and corrected it. The protests in DC were staggered from the morning hours and ended by 4PM in accordance with permits.
I hope he gets our birthday wish and he keels over. That’d be fucking epic.
Oh yeah, I remember hearing something about a parade, shame it ended up being the same day as all those cool protests 🤔
I saw the President sitting down and being all frumpy rather than standing on a platform and saluting the troops as they walked by.
the lion king one looks signifcantly better.
Bruh, you have no idea how much sex I got from that movie in 3D. I have no idea why. I mean, it was well done into 3D, but not good enough to explain that. And its not like I was in some kind of “prime” at the time lol
Wait so you sat through multiple viewings of that movie just for some pussy?
It’s not a bad movie on its own.
Scar at least gave good speeches and could sing.
Do you think Donny was able to impress his friends?
That was a funny joke. President Felon has never had friends.
Is that bottom picture really from trump’s parade?
Yes it is.
I avoided reading anything about it so this is the first one I’ve seen. I thought it was fake but I’m glad it didn’t look like the top picture.
I dunno. If you’re going to do fascist military display at least do it right. This fascism lite crap is all the evil but none of the decorum. He just does everything so shitty.
So it was basically the McDonald’s of military parades, got it. What more could you expect from McDonald Trump.
how have I not seen this use of McDonald before?!
Right? Show me some semi trucks with obviously weiner-shaped missiles. Instead of the type’o dong from NK, ours will be called big stick or something. Mushroom tip is taken by a shadowy conglomerate.
i saw the video on publicfreakout, all the army members in the parade, look so sad.
Good.
You know this going to get under trump’s skin
Why aren’t they kicking as high as these guys?
Sir, that’s a burlesque play making fun of Nazis.
Poor Cheeto Shitler…
It looked like JROTC compared to parades overseas
very low energy, and very demoralized people.
I was in the pool!
It shrinks?
It is pretty easy to put on an impressive parade when you have a military of 2 million people and aren’t a global power vs the US with 1.3m and have bases all over the globe. Even Russia was able to put on a bigger parade while they were fighting Ukraine and had lost tens of thousands of soldiers.
The parade was pretty paltry, but the fireworks display was very ostentatious. Breaking out the vintage stuff was cool, but lame that they didn’t at least put some mock .50s on the half track.
Honestly this shit parade made me realize how our imperialist strategy would make us very vulnerable to any actual war in the US
I think the difference there is you’d probably notice a ton of troops like, literally gathering for war. You’d have enough time to mobilize and house them. Parades are not important enough to pull that many troops away, and it’d be way more than this one cost.
Now, a civil war… nah, I feel like by the time anyone organized you’d have plenty of troops ready to squash it.
About the vintage stuff - they got that from Hollywood costume and props rental houses, and only started organising that last-minute, so they got rinsed on the price.
They obviously just pocketed the money.
communists have the best marches.
Hugo Boss would like a word with you.
Having a military parade for a leaders birthday is not normal. Wtf USA. Protest harder please, actually get reform this time.
We are relying on you, since the USA is a superpower with many countries under your thumb, this affects more than just you
We had 12.1M out on Saturday. That’s more than double the last protest. We’re getting there.
The problem is that both are bad, and collectively we need to end both, constantly.
Photo taken first thing in the morning, but nice try

Lol. It’s not like anyone was going to fly in for this. What were they thinking?
as someone mentioned in another thread, most likely it was a distraction from all the protests thats going. notice how all the MSMs are are barely covering it and focusing the assassinations and the parade.
Do you have a better photo?
Beep
Shut up, loser.
