The president was previously forced to abandon plans for a procession in Washington, D.C., due to its colossal price tag.

      I know it was a rhetorical question and you probably knew the answer, but he was playing golf

    They’re going to try to scramble it together last minute so newspapers can’t blast out the several hundred million dollar price tag before it goes down.

      There is a standing army. Where do the costs come from? Like flyovers, it will be an exercise.

        Last time they refused to release the cost breakdown, but quoted 93 million (but that one sounded smaller).

        So other than expenses faced by any parade, I don’t know details. Transporting the vehicles, road prep and repair (city cost seemed like a big part of it), they might all get paid for anything not routine.

        Either way, captain bonespurs can run a parade up his own ass

      LOL you definitely were going to get him in jail 4 years ago.
      It was ridiculous back then and now even more.
      If only they would’ve called to impeach Hitler, history would’ve been different.

    Let’s make a four mile parade of people holding “fuck you, fascist” signs, instead.

      You are just insulting other people’s bodies using this type of response instead of attacking all the things Trump is actually doing wrong.
