    The president was previously forced to abandon plans for a procession in Washington, D.C., due to its colossal price tag.

      Oh, course we need a giant military parade to honor Dear Leader for saving money on wasteful programs such as meals on wheels and the veterans’ suicide hotline.

      Thank you Dear Leader for not sending me and my family to be worked to death in a labor camp, yet.

      I look forward to our new tradition of yearly military parades for Dear Leader.

      Friendly reminder to literally everyone in that parade: you swore an oath to defend the constitution from all threats foreign and domestic.

      So go ahead, put on your dress costume and walk around a giant circle as per Agent Orange’s orders. But if during the pony show the opportunity presents to do your fucking job, we’re begging you to do your fucking job!
