Trump’s hijacking of the Fourth of July just got a lot uglier

Let me give you the bottom line -- you missed the point. We know all this but we don't care. Deal with it.

You miss the point by light years. 45 is politicizing a national holiday and hijacking it as a Republican political rally at the expense of taxpayers and tradition. You do know that an inauguration (45 has not yet paid for his) is not viewed in the same cultural context as the 4th of July by local residents who lookforward to enjoying a non-political holiday. This is not an appropriate venue to showcase the military. Many patriots (secret code word to describe white racists, white supremacists, neo-confederates, neo-nazis and white separatists collectively) just don't seem to get it.

You’re off topic, IBH.

You want to bash President Obama, start your own thread.

This here thread is about Trump’s penis showing game.

And he’s gonna show the world what a real mushroom cloud looks like!

Sad. I was hoping for baseball, hot dogs, etc.

Can you name one "Federal Holiday" that is "NON-POLITICAL"?

Dates of Federal Holidays for 2019
Tuesday, January 1 - New Year's Day.
Monday, January 21 - Birthday of Martin Luther King, Jr.
Monday, February 18 - Washington's Birthday.
Monday, May 27 - Memorial Day.
Thursday, July 4 - Independence Day.
Monday, September 2 - Labor Day.
Monday, October 14 - Columbus Day.

Even New Year's Day has morphed into a "political" day, since Trump was elected .... with the whining about another year of Trump!!!!!!!!

The childishness of the losers is laughable, if not disgustingly sad!

There are two kinds of "residents" of D.C. .....

... political and welfare recipients who can't leave.

That's why the place is called a "Swamp"!

If Trump wanted to have a parade of soldiers costumed circa 1776 with horse-drawn cannons, I could understand it.

That’s not what he’s doing.

He’s waving his dick at the rest of the world.

Poor form. Low class. Trump.

Actually you have a decent point but the anti-Trump faction politicizes everything our President does and attempts to denigrate his positive efforts for America so it is hard to unite the country in the midst of the left's constant efforts to divide America for their own political benefit.

Now 45 has the audacity to politize a public holiday as a political rally at the expense of taxpayers while DOJ lawyers argue that soap and toothpaste is not necessary to maintain hygienic conditions in concentration camps holding asylum seekers. This is not a good look on the global stage of diplomacy, and demonstrates 45's lack of compassion, empathy and emotional intelligence.

No, I will stand behind this corrupt dysfuctional, traitorous and illegitimate administration that rebukes congressional oversight and the Supreme Court. Nor will I blindly support this alledged racist, pedofile, misogynistic rapist who embraces dictators and is indifferent to the plight of global citizens who suffer needlessly as an undesirable consequence of American foreign policy. On the other hand, the white separatists, white nationalists, neo-confederates, neo-Nazis and other haters of positive social change, equal rights and constitutional due process constitute 45's base and support this alledged traitorous and illegitimate President.

Why would any rational, critically thinking individual support a corrupt, traitorous and illegitmate draft dodging President whose policies are detrimental to the Republic and life threatening to citizens and residents?
