Raissa.....AMEN! Very well written! I have been to all three protest and each and grows bigger and bigger. And we even got local news coverage this time. (small town we will not get national) I can't wait for the next protest.
Have you heard of David Hogg? He was one of the kids at the Parkland shooting, he is now a grown up. He has a platform called "Leaders We Deserve" he is trying to get young people elected to Congress and get rid of some of the older people with the same old ideas. We need some fresh, new ideas and people who will stand up and fight for us. I'm a baby boomer and I'm behind him 1000%. Look up Leader We Deserve and sew what you think and maybe join us.
Will the Navy and Marines, too? They were established in 1775.
The best part was the festival on the mall. There were battle reenactments, fitness contests, rock climbing, face painting, live bands, and more. This is how you showcase our military. There were logistical difficulties, but my understanding is that it went well. Do we still have airshows? Marines hold a toy drive every Christmas, showcasing the Marine Corps.
A parade isn't patriotism. The festival was about patriotism. Want to boost recruitment? Have an interactive show of hardware and share the life of server members. Do we still have MREs? Serve some of those. Get people excited! Watching a sea of platoons in BDUs march past is not exciting.
Trump craves power and attention. Trump can't seem to fit into social circles. Now he is trying to be accepted by the dictators (who are laughing at him). Trump's problem is that he tries too hard. He insists on shoving the square peg into the round hole.
Trump has always been rogue. Demanding "unconditional surrender" (all caps) on social media. He thinks he is playing RISK. Trump believes Hannibal Lecter is a real person. Perhaps taking it to the next step and having him strapped in a white straitjacket and chains. And take his smartphone away.
When Trump is ‘against the world’ … the world then becomes his virtual ‘enemy’ and doing battle on all fronts drains his ‘power’.
— Trump’s power is more limited than ours, is the point. He is going to be a very tired old man by the time he exits stage right!
Israel preempted Trump’s negotiations with Iran by striking first … then, as Heather C-Richardson writes “Being sidelined in foreign affairs at the same time as the American people turned out in huge numbers to protest his administration and as his military parade fizzled shows 🔻Trump has less power than he tries to project.”
* There is some opinion too, that the military parade DID have some redeeming features, such as educational elements & public-troop interactions.
We should be celebrating American heroes like Alexander Vindman instead of wading through the muck of the current administration.
