If Donald Trump was not the US President I truly believe
that the Washington Post would either go out of business or be about a page in
length….because the paper seems to depend on its’ anti-Trump vitriol to stay in
business. Here is the latest offering
from this rag, dealing with, you got it, the participation of President Trump
in the Fourth of July ceremonies on the DC Mall grounds.
This article is the THIRD anti-Trump / Fourth of July
article run by the Washington Post in three days. And they are not alone….the democrats in
congress are lined up to denounce that the President of the US wants a few
armored vehicles on the mall for the celebration of American Independence. “Diverting resources”, they claim, “More
appropriate for a banana republic (like their buddies in Cuba and Venezuela), they
say. “Politicizing an American holiday
that should not be….” They rail.
So….step by step….shall we?
“Diverting resources….”.
SERIOUSLY? The democrats, who are
now politicizing the crisis at the border, which they have been denying existed
for MONTHS, and will provide not one dime for border security…..they are
concerned about diverting resources?
Here is a little insight for you….the vehicles made the trip from Georgia,
to DC, and were offloaded from a train in DC, before this first story broke…..before
the democrats saw that they could cast orange man as evil, on this issue. Those vehicles cost the taxpayers the same
number of dollars in the motor pool as in DC.
The train that carried them had other, non-military related goods on
them….this was a zero sum game for the government and the military. You wouldn’t KNOW that if you listened to
MSNBC and CNN or read the WAPO, but this is LITERALLY a non event. And what soldier would not be proud to be
with his hardware on the mall on the fourth of July? None that I know of. Those soldiers will get their holiday given
back to them, and probably get a medal hung on them. This flak is media driven and seized on by
the progtards in congress….it literally is sound and fury, with no substance…..but
again, the nation hating left has the stage and you would never know it.
“More appropriate for a banana republic…..”. Ironic since the left is working like Santa’s
elves to turn the nation into a fruit basket.
WHEN did showcasing the greatness of the nation become a sin? We did it for YEARS after the Civil War that
the left insisted on fighting. We did it
after WWI. We did it AGAIN, and in a big
way after WWII (who does not remember the iconic shot of the sailor kissing the
woman in Times Square on VJ day?).
Although we disrespected our Korean and Vietnam vets, we did it again
after Operation Desert Storm. When did
this become a bad thing? And in Korea, which
was referenced in some progasses comments, they roll their vehicles down the
road….they are not merely displays.
“Politicizing an American holiday….” Let’s be clear….if this is being politicized
it is because that is the way the left wants it….and that is the way they are
getting it, thanks to the media and the hatred of Trump by the left in this
nation. There is not a fourth of July
parade in the nation that does not include contingents from the fire and police
departments, the VFW, the local JROTC unit, and THE US MILITARY!! I have never heard a liberal bitch about any
of those, and I live in Illinois…..the liberal bitch capitol of the Midwest
(don’t move here….EVER).
All of this bitching is a result of Trump Derangement
Syndrom, a full blown and incurable case…..and the media and their puppets in
congress are pushing it hard…..and there is literally nothing to see here.
Listen….the eight year apology tour ended when the door to
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue hit Obama and his fellow Marxists in the ass in
January 2017. Warts, moles, flaws and all
(and most are in congress, the media and the education system), we are the
greatest country in civilization and should never apologize to anyone for that.
Now…..show me the tanks.

I recall after the end of Desert Storm, NYC held a celebration parade for the troops (would NEVER happen today with DeBlasio!) and although no tanks there were armed Hum-Vee's and Bradley's in the parade. Not a lot but some.
