DumbFuck's military parade is estimated to cost $92 million, according to a U.S. defense official with firsthand knowledge of the assessment.

An earlier estimate pegged the cost at $12 million.

The parade will take place in the nation's capital on Nov. 10 and will feature armored vehicles, aircraft flyovers and period uniforms.

1. Any news program that covers It needs to be boycotted. It needs to get

letters and phone calls telling it you are boycotting.

2. So the party of fiscal responsibility wants to use $92 million for a parade?

3. $92 million for one day of public worship of the emperor

4. How did the parade go from $12 million to $92 million?

Did the vendors and contractors up their prices because BLOATUS is getting a cut?

This is fucking ridiculous!!!

How about we give military personnel a raise instead? Or use that money to help homeless veterans?

This is some third-world shit right here.

18. I hope the US military BOYCOTTS this parade

5. Looting the treasury for nothing

Absolutely nothing.

Where are the conservatives?

[gratuitous]

10. This would seem to be a good example of waste, fraud and abuse

But those deficit hawks in the Republican caucus are curiously silent. I just hope some low level office person doesn't inadvertently toss a paper clip into the trash.

6. ABSOLUTELY NOT

this CANNOT be allowed to happen. We can’t fund social programs but we can do this??? Where are the fiscal conservatives!!!!

[Scurrilous]

7. "...and period uniforms."

CSA or Soviet?

8. Ivanka is in charge of procurement in China

[Freethinker65]

9. But we must find ways to save money on veterans healthcare, housing, and education.

Not to mention all of the other cuts, but this parade is supposedly for the troops and not just a Trump ego massage. What a waste of money and military personnel's time and resources.

11. +1

12. More $ for Trump. Trump hotel in DC appears to be fully booked that weekend.

The cheapest room on November 9 is over $1,000 which is about twice the average rate.

13. If Dems take over will that have an effect? I know they won't get in until Jan but.....

idk maybe it might put a dent in this idiot's big ego.

14. Color me confused

but doesn't Congress have to appropriate funds? I kind of remember the Constitution giving Congress the purse strings.

[Totally Tunsie]

15. This is a disgusting waste of taxpayer $$$ just to grease the tRaitor's ass.

Senseless and shameful...a $92M BJ for the most undeserving person ever.

tRump can try to couch this as a tribute to troops and veterans, but the truth is that each and every one of them would prefer upgraded pay and benefits.

BOYCOTT!

16. The Parade Needs To Be Led By An Appropriate Float

[procon]

17. What do all us dumb taxpayers get in exchange for giving our hard earned money

to indulge Trump's ego? Can I live in one of those tanks, you know it could happen, Tiny Tank Towns popping up all over America. Can I sell a couple of fighter planes so a lot of folks could get health insurance? Maybe we can scrap a few missiles for salvage and buy groceries or pay for school lunches to feed hungry people.

19. Donald Fuck strikes again!

Every day we have to read about a new horror coming from this truly evil POS & his GOP enablers in Congress.

Kick & Recommend!
