Fiscal Responsibility: Trumps Military Parade to cost $92 Million

[pismoe]

i think that he just messes with the lefties but its just my opinion . I mean , the lefties have been talking about the possible Parade for months IBerg . [imo]

 

[Papageorgio]

Great news! This thing will never come off. Trump, you need a vaca! You are not reading the mood of the people. Spend that 92 MILLION on the veterans! I have never been behind this grandiose egotistical idea of yours. This is NOT your military school mentality anymore.

Trump’s military parade postponed to next year, Pentagon says

Snip:

President Trump's military parade planned for Veterans Day has been postponed until at least next year, the Pentagon announced Thursday.

Pentagon spokesman Col. Rob Manning said in a statement that the Defense Department and White House have agreed to explore potential dates for the parade in 2019.

Many countries far smaller than us have such parades to the applause and pride of their nation.

Oh they have to applaud. If they don't they'll be shot.

​

Take notes now.

Just more lies of the left.

uh HUH. So you're saying non-compliants aren't shot in North Korea are you?

Good luck making that point. I'll be watching.

It's your allegation that they are, prove it.

 

[Sunni Man]

No dumbass, he doesn't, it's why he wastes people time with stupid parade fetishisms and then tries to save face by talking about spending that money instead on jets no one is asking for.

Our wonderful Pres. Trump knows what's best for his country and people.

Only miscreants and cretins try to second guess his astute decisions. ...

1. From winning despite the polls to a booming economy, your denial of reality grows more pathological every day.

2. So, they you won't care when the Parade is national news, and everyone has to decide whether to celebrate America, or be revealed as an anti-American asshole.

3. As political uses of the military goes, this is pretty benign. There is a good chance no one will die, and the value to the nation is quite high.

1. not a single economic indicator changed course after the election, the economy is merely following the same path of the last 8 years.

2. I am truly embarrassed for you that you equate support for a parade with loyalty to the country.

3. Proving once again you do not actually give a shit about military. But since you never had the balls to serve your country, I am not surprised.

1. LOL!!!!


2. The parade will be, at least, a celebration of America's military. People will have the choice to join in, or oppose that. Their choices on this will reveal who they are.

That is all I am saying. What part of that to you find shameful?


3. No, it does not prove that. Supporting a parade does not prove that I do not care about the people in the military. You have to do more than say something over and over again to prove it.

1. Feel free to name even a single economic indicator changed course after the election.

2. So, in your little partisan mind, what about the person in the military that opposes the parade? Do they love their country because they are in the military or do they hate their country because they think the parade is a stupid fucking idea? Which will it be in your mind?

3. You are good with the military being used as a political tool, that makes you one that does not give a shit about the military.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Support your claim that there are "folks" politically biased to the Right, in the Government, that have abused their office and authority to fight against the policy of the Administration of the time.


Or admit that you are full of shit.

You brain-dead sycophantic conservative. Quote me saying anyone, ”abused their office and authority to fight against the policy of the Administration.”

Try arguing what I say — not what the demons raging in your head tell you.

That... is not a conservative. That it is brain-dead remains to be seen. One of the tenets of conservatism is fiscal responsibility. Anyone supporting a stupid parade so the Orange Virus can see his military toys up close gave up being conservative and moved to the dark side of extremism quite a while ago. They worship a cult of personality.

A parade is not extremism nor "cult of pesonality".

Stop panic mongering.

Military parades are typically the celebrations of teapot despots who feel the need to show off their military might to other nations in order to compensate for their smallness in other areas.

That’s a reason America doesn’t brandish such silliness as we don’t need to. Our military might is well established across the globe.

1. Your claim of military parades being typical of "teapot despots" is unsupported.

2. Our military might, might be established. The celebration and respect for our military, is not so assured.

You openly admitted the military is being used as political pawns and that you were cool with it happening...now you want to talk about respect for the military.

You have zero fucking respect for the military. All you care about is your savior in the White House getting his political parade

 

[g5000]

Remind me again how the GOP is the party of fiscal responsibility and we can't afford to guarantee healthcare for all citizens.

Trump's military parade is estimated to cost $92 million – $80 million more than earlier estimate

"The Department of Defense and its interagency partners have updated their perspective cost estimates for the parade, according to a U.S. defense official with firsthand knowledge of the assessment. The official spoke on the condition of anonymity.


The parade, slated for Nov. 10, is estimated to cost $92 million, the official said. The figure consists of $50 million from the Pentagon and $42 million from interagency partners such as the Department of Homeland Security. An initial estimate last month pegged the prospective cost for the parade at $12 million."

Obama once again uses the military as a campaign tool.

 

[Crepitus]

Our wonderful Pres. Trump alway makes the right decision. ...

He decided to hire Omarosa.

And sessions.
And rosenstein.
And Flynn.
And prebus.
And scaramucci.
And.... Well you get the point.

1. Can't be bothered right now. Multi tasking.

2. COuld be either, with the information you gave me. NOw, what about antifa? What do you think they will do?

3. I'm good with the military being used as a political tool, in this very minor and safe way. Consider it an exception which proves the rule. I do feel bad about the sacrifices that military will have to make for this. But imo, the benefit to the nation is worth it.

This is not about Trump.

The parade is about Trump and nothing else.

He will have a few words to say, which no one will watch in it's entirety and then the screen will be full of people from the military marching and riding.

Perhaps/hopefully with some civilians too.


It seems odd to think that this will be all about Trump.

Thanks for conceding your position on this so easily.

1. Thanks for showing how dishonest you vile libs are, by cutting all context.

2. Thanks for showing how you see revealing anything real, is a defeat. That certainly explains the constant lying and stonewalling we get from you leftards.

When our amazing Pres. Trump hired these people, they were right for the job at hand. But time goes by and they had outlived their initial usefulness.

So he let them go and hired newer, fresher, people.

That's just how it works in both business and government. ...

The cameras will be on him the whole time, the units and equipment will be filmed as they go by the reviewing stand. IT IS ALL ABOUT HIM

 

[Some Guy]

A military parade is entirely, 100% unnecessary. It'd be nothing but really expensive porn for the big pro-military types.

 

[g5000]

Trump just tweeted that now that he cancelled the parade, he can buy more jet fighters.

Wow, you can't make this stupidity up

Yes, Trump is doing his best to get us back to trillion dollar deficits.

As if that parade that had not even been scheduled for this year was cancelled because of MSNBC`s "fact finding" citing as usually an "anonymous official". Trump will attend the one in Paris this November because it is the 100 year anniversary of Armistice day....and so will representatives of every NATO member state.
Many of them are looking for a face saving way to get out of the trade tariff show down after they realized that Trump is the opposite of the push-over they had been dealing with before him.
And who cares about some anonymous bean counter`s estimate what a military parade would cost, as long as it annoys the perverts who insist to hold gay pride parades in order to show decent folks a lot more body parts than just the middle finger. If there is one in November 2019 they will insist that "Chelsea" Manning gets to carry the flag in front of it and MSNBC won`t complain. As an added benefit Colin Kaepernik can be there kneeling for "her".
Do that and then the main scream media will be happy.
