Like many people, say, the entire world population except for one guy, I have been firmly opposed to that guy’s ridiculous plan for a Soviet style military parade through the streets of Washington, DC.
Pointless spectacle for the enjoyment of a spurred and deferred draft dodger. Waste of the city’s already-thin budgetary resources. Not to mention icky fascist wanking.
Overnight, with the news of the new National Security Advisor, I’ve pulled a one-eighty. I want that parade. The bigger the better.
A million fighting men and women, uniforms bright and crisp. Tanks, humvees, rocket launchers. Hours of deafening flyovers by every sort of craft we have. Put the frigging USS Iowa on wheels and lug it down the avenue. Submarines in the Tidal Basin.
Every resource of every branch of the military should be represented. Let the wondrous spectacle last for days!
1,034 days would be good.
