This is exactly why Trump wants a parade. For Trump the last sentence is a selling point not a warning.
The last decent Republican… and yes, I’m aware there’s a long list of bad things he did, so no need to tell me that. But despite them, the man truly did believe in democracy and in America, even if he was guilty of deciding the ends justified the means in too many cases.
>As we peer into society’s future, we – you and I, and our government – must avoid the impulse to live only for today, plundering for our own ease and convenience the precious resources of tomorrow. We cannot mortgage the material assets of our grandchildren without risking the loss also of their political and spiritual heritage. We want democracy to survive for all generations to come, not to become the insolvent phantom of tomorrow.
and…
>In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist. We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together
This makes sense since trump really wants to do it and he’s a weak ass bitch.
Well considering it’s comrade Krasnov…
If Mango Mussolini had his way, he’d have the tier one units skip actual training and practicing throwing flaming tomahawks from the backflip for the amusement of his pals at mar a lago.
Fuck trump.
He’s a weak man, that’s why the orange turd wants a parade
Cadet Bonespurs is trying to look like his strong man BFFs Putin, Xi, and Kim.
What did Eisenhower know, he was just a filthy lib. He didn’t even like Nazis!
Ike was the best. That speech against the military industrial complex is legendary
Can I just say for a moment that it’s a bit jarring to see a 4-star with so few ribbons as compared to a present-day 4-star?
Wonder how much Republicans of today would hate this guy
If only Trump could read maybe we could send this to him
This administration seems hellbent on making us look weak. But this military “parade” isn’t for anyone outside. This is meant to be a show of power against their own citizens.

I like Ike.
Trump’s two superpowers: Turning strength into weakness and gold into shit.
It’s tacky, gaudy, and gross dick waving. Very on brand for 47.
Correct.

What would this guy say or do about Cheeto Moses?

We are weak at this point…
That’s why Putin is making Trump have a parade.
And I absolutely expect Trump to call Eisenhower weak.
And that’s exactly the reason why the orange turd wants one, to please daddy Putin.
All Donald Trump does is talk about how bad America is, so this is right on brand,
It’s because he doesn’t know how to actually be a “strong man.” All these republicans just try and cosplay as strong men and fail miserably.

Conservatives about to call Ike “woke.”
