Trump’s Military Parade Flops Amid Massive Nationwide Protests
A $46 million military parade, fulfilling President Trump’s long-held desire, celebrated the US Army’s 250th anniversary in Washington D.C. The event, occurring amidst nationwide protests and following the assassination of a Democratic politician and her husband in Minnesota, featured 6,500 troops and military equipment from various conflicts. Trump justified the parade by asserting that other countries celebrate their military victories, while protestors, numbering in the thousands, demonstrated against his administration across the nation. Despite organizers’ expectations, attendance at the parade was lower than anticipated, possibly due to inclement weather.
