Neo-fascist demagogue Donald "Rump" Trump fancies himself a "ruler" or "king", so when he saw the annual Bastille Day parade last year in Paris, brimming with military hardware, he just had to have the same to prop up his damaged ego. The Pentagon has been planning for a Veteran's Day parade in Washington, DC, but has had to exclude tanks and other tracked vehicles so as not to damage Washington's streets. Rump will no doubt pitch a tantrum over the exclusion, and now that the word is out, may see it as an affront. The spectacle of America throwing a totalitarian or banana republic-style parade for its glorious leader tells you all you need to know about the unfit buffoon in the White (Supremacist) House.
UPDATE: Rump's self-indulgent parade will cost $30 million, enough to feed the 40,000 homeless vets. Think about those priorities.
