Independence Day.
The movie that summarizes not only America but the world as we know it now:
- Skies igniting
- Terror racing through major cities
- Destruction of the Fourth of July Weekend
- A need for Congress to stop the destruction
Sound familiar? It should. On that sacred day, the man in charge of the destruction wants to plan this:
President Trump, the man who embodies the same mental abilities as an alien in a movie; obvious difference is a lack of KFC, was in awe of the French Bastille Day during a summer visit to France, He made this point known to French President Emmanuel Macron during the United Nations General Assembly in New York on Monday. During the visit, Trump had adopted plans to makeover America’s Independence Day into a parade revealing America’s military strength because reasons.
Uh, Trump, you might want to step away from the bucket of extra crispy, and see two possible reasons that idea will not go over well:
- We already show our impressive military strength without a parade. Ask 1950-60’s Japan and Korea. Ask late 1960’s Vietnam. Ask Iraq and Afghanistan 2001- today.
- It shows that we are just like Kim-Jong Un and his Kim-Jong Ilk.
Besides, we all know that this is what he has long desired since he took office. According to The New York Times, “His inaugural committee reportedly explored, but rejected, the idea of having military equipment in his inaugural parade,” and it may start “as early as next year.”
But there lacks a plan of the logistics of this parade, and who will pay for it? What are the plans, Donald?
What is it with this guy wanting parades and saying the same things over and over again? Is this a presidency, or a lead in to a “My Super Sweet 16” remake?
Now, much like every parent towards a child with unrealistic desires, the comments prompted laughter from Macron and other officials sitting around them.
According to the Washington Post, Trump said in a January interview that “Being a great president has to do with a lot of things, but one of them is being a great cheerleader for this country.”
Let’s break that down into two simple, digestible parts:
- “Being a great president has to do with a lot of things.”
Right then and there, somebody should have been there to present Trump with a pop-quiz on what the responsibilities of being president entail. Do not let him off the hook that easily.
And:
- “One of them is to be a great cheerleader for this country.”
Hey, dummy. We already had a cheerleader in office. He was the last Republican in office before you came in!
I’d gladly take a third term of THAT cheerleader over one MINUTE of THIS cheerleader.
Moving on to…
Why Is This Still A Thing?
