In an exclusive interview with NBC News’ “Meet the Press,” Trump also outlined a White House renovation he hopes to carry out — which he said he will pay for himself.
military parades have no value
Except to piss off your troops. I HATED being in parades to celebrate some general or another retiring. Then there’s the potential for heat injuries and troops just passing out from standing so long.
Sounds about right. You really want to honor the troops then how about taking that money and cutting every active and reservist soldier a check?
Or not gutting the VA.
I post this to mock the premise of the whole thing, especially the part where he’ll “pay for it himself.” The only thing he pays for is sex, lawyers, and bribes.
He doesn’t even pay his lawyers. I’m willing to bet he’s refused to pay a few hookers as well.
It’s amazing how he hit that level of scumbag where the default response is victim blaming, anytime there’s a story about him not paying it always ends up at “are you surprised? That’s what he does.”
That’s still wrong though? I hate how he gets such a free pass
I think it’s more schadenfreude than victim blaming - that and a dash of Leopards Eating My Face. Those type of comments are usually under such stories as MAGA lawyers lining up to handle his nonsense lawsuits in order to ride his coattails to fame and wealth, only to be abandoned when they fail to get results. Victim blaming would imply they’re actually victims instead of grifters stupidly working under another grifter.
He’s proven that he can’t be reasoned with and is effectively immune from accountability. At this point, casting blame upon him is essentially the same as blaming a natural disaster for the destruction it causes. If you get burned while playing with fire, would it be rational to blame the fire?
I also hate that that’s our reality. But I see people arguing that blaming Democrats for dropping the ball gives Trump and the Republican party a free pass to be shitty and this is my dilemma.
The ironic thing is that this time he probably can pay for it, now that he has turned his second presidency into a bribe magnet through the power of Crypto Shitcoins. He won’t, but he can.
You think he pays directly for sex?
The glove-bedecked intern leaves it on the bedstand
Remember the last thing trump promised that would paid for? Did we get that check from Mexico for the wall yet from your first term, Mr trump?
Can someone just give him some peanuts and skip the parade?
Make is so the “parade” didn’t happen. Boycott everything about it. Boycott any news. Do not mention it. Change the subject if anyone mentions it. Turn off any television channel or news that covers it. Vanish it. You never heard about it.
We have to hunker down and spend less but he gets a parade. And yet they’ll still defend this nonsense.
He wants to hold it on flag day which is so important that we don’t even get the day off for it. It’s not even the 250th anniversary of flag day; it’s the 248th. This is just for his own stupid vanity and selfishness (not that this needed to be explained to anyone).
