Will you be watching Trump's Military Parade?

The Army Birthday Parade will take place Saturday, June 14 on Constitution Avenue near the National Mall in the heart of Washington, D.C. Trump will sit in a viewing stand on Constitution Avenue, just south of the White House.

The Army said the parade will kick off at 6:30 p.m. and conclude around 7:30 p.m. Following the parade, Trump is expected to attend an enlistment and re-enlistment ceremony, and the evening concludes with a concert at the Ellipse, the park south of the White House fence, and fireworks at 9:45 p.m.

Free tickets for the U.S. Army's Grand Military Parade and Celebration are limited, but those interested in attending can RSVP online here. The form includes your full name, email, phone number, ZIP code, and state. Two people can register under one cellphone number.

The massive military cavalcade will take place on Constitution Avenue NW near the National Mall in Washington, D.C., specifically between 23rd Street NW to 15th Street NW.

The parade and other highlights from the military celebration will be livestreamed across U.S. Army social media platforms, although the event may not broadcast directly on national TV, and instead on streaming platforms.

Variety reported national TV news networks, such as ABC, NBC and CBS, are unlikely to pre-empt regular TV programming to cover the event, citing sources familiar with their plans. Streaming platforms, like ABC News Live, NBC News Now and CBS News 24/7 are instead planning to cover the event.

The latest price tag for the massive event is $30 million, a figure that could rise as high as $45 million.

Fuck no, I wouldn't watch it if you paid me.

P.S. Local weather forecast:

SATURDAY: Partly sunny and muggy. Afternoon showers and thunderstorms. Storms may be severe, and heavy rain may cause flooding. Highs in the low to mid-80s.

R3, saying it's on "Flag Day" is an excuse for him to having a parade on his June 14 birthday. That's all he cares about.

I'll be celebrating my Mom's birthday (RIP Mom), who hated that she shared a birthday with that man.

Ideally they will march through the rain for a while & then have to quit because of lightning. That would cause more disruption than simply canceling it. Wonder if they will try to reschedule it? Maybe next year?

I signed up and received my (limited, ha, ha, ha!) tickets instantly on Wednesday. Unfortunately, Ima Jackoff and Don Oldman have changed their minds about attending. I have a charity event that I am participating in, so I figure I did my small part, instead of being at a protest. Hopefully two deplorables weren't able to get the two tickets I won't be using.

In TV and film, if there is a lighting strike 6 miles from the shooting location, the crew has to stop filming and shelter in place and wait until it's 30 minutes from the last strike 6 miles away.

You don’t have to roll over protestors with tanks standing in front of tanks. That is strictly optional. And messy. Tazers, rubber bullets and batons would work quite well.

I will be watching to see. I was after all a history major and this is fucking US history unfolding..

Well the claim is being made that many of the protestors in LA are paid agitators . So it’s possible. If one shows up to stand in front of a tank today he will be removed without major force and America will cheer.

Being on the wrong side of history , the wrong side of the majority of the country , as far as future and past but recent elections really sucks.

After the Civil War, Robert E Lee said his greatest regret in life was choosing a military career. As president of Washington and Lee University, the students marched as was the custom at the time. Lee made it a point to march with them out of step.

It occurred to me that this would be a wonderful protest by the Army. The horses could walk with their heads down, and the dog would need to be carried.

I've seen a couple of shots where he looks pretty miserable (it must have been obvious that turnout was low), and everyone around him looks bored. Our military doesn't waste its time practicing for parades, thank goodness, so it couldn't have been much to look at. He was probably expecting something like what the North Koreans put on.

Plus it was so humid that everyone must have been sweating horribly.
