But don't worry, they've already spent tens of millions of dollars just to get to this point before cancelling.

Ok religious people. What other signs does God need to send?
A rainbow appearing in the sky over Dublin on the day that Ireland voted to legalize same-sex marriage? A tornado destroying the house of Rep. Joe Harding, who authored the infamous "Don't Say Gay" bill in Florida?
I don't know how much clearer He can get!
The mistake you are making is assuming religious people are capable of logic, reasoning, or changing their minds. God himself could appear and tell them they are wrong and they wouldn’t believe it, because their existing beliefs are a forgone conclusion. They did not arrive at them by reason or logic and they will not be moved by reason or logic.
Plague of locusts? Blood raining down? Him literally getting struck by lightening?
I would like the later. It would be hilarious.
It is things like this that almost makes me feel like there is a god.
you mean chicken out? or do it another day hoping there won't be as many protests? or the Chicago mass?
TACO
I hope Mother Nature provides plenty of lightening. In addition, God is not with those who guzzle own the Orange Kool-Aid.
Sure would be nice if the media would stop just repeating his bullshit at face value.
"celebrating 250 years of the U.S. military.." Fuck off. Trump doesn't give a shit about the military. He wants a show for himself on his birthday. They should make that perfectly clear each and every time instead of just repeating whatever inane bullshit hillbilly barbie says at the podium.
To be fair, the headline of this article did literally call it a birthday parade.
And then immediately afterwards frame it as the United States 250th birthday. Shenanigans.
Sing it with me folks!
He's just afraid, guys. And chickening out, as usual. Pass the word
T.A.C.O. Trump
Trump Always Chickens Out Trump
If he was nicer, the Democrats could use their weather machine to give him nice weather on his birthday, but he's been a big meanie lately, so it's rain for HitlerPig's birthday.
Praise the chemtrails!
Maybe he ahould ask Bibi if he can have those Jewish Space Lasers burn away the mean thunder clouds.
Nah. Hold it anyway. Maybe we'll get lucky and the clown prince will catch all his karma at once in the form of a lightning bolt.
Yes, but at the cost of long range visibility and wind, which I guess would only be a problem in certain specific circumstances.

So the message is our military can't perform in th3 rain. Is USPS the last great government force?
Well, the last few wars have been in deserts
To be fair they stated they didn't want to have an audience out in lightning.
Whatever the case, calling off such festivities is what I'd like to happen anyway. His stupid birthday parade not happening would be a good outcome.
In his mind he's probably worried that the low turnout would be bad press for him.
You know, rather than concern for the safety of the attendees.

Aww, did he lose his magic sharpie?
Bday parade??? This is exactly the type of ego bs that dictators do. Have a quiet night in with the family you never see you psycho
Your “god” is shaming you.
I'm in favor of sticking him out there and seeing if Zeus is ready to smite him yet.
Lol fucking loser
Can't let his comb over go more wild in the rain. Remember, he doesn't even show up for veteran's memorial service in the rain because rain and dying for your country is for losers. What he said anyway. $48 million was spent just getting all that gear there. Could have fed starving American children by funding the program that was canceled but who needs to do that right? OH WELL! ¯_(ツ)_/¯ (/s)

I'm sure it may also be due to a lack of anyone joining and the huge protests on horizon. I wonder how pissed the military would be if he does cancel.
Did they end up cancelling it?

First thought: I hope it gets canceled
Second thought: go ahead and do it, and let Trump wave a flag on top of the biggest float

TACO of his own parade
Where are the lasers to control the weather that Biden refused to use to save Florida?

Maybe this is misguided, but in some ways I was looking forward to seeing whatever actions had been planned in DC that day. I guess we'll see what happens. Regardless, Asheville is coming out strong for a No Kings rally.
I will be placing Mother Nature under arrest for raining on my parade! 🫲🍊🫱

Yeah right. Probably cancelling it because he doesn't want people to show up and ruin his dick-tator moment by protesting.
Then again Diaper Don doesn't like rain cleaning off his nasty orange makeup and getting in his rats nest.
I wouldn't be surprised if he's more afraid of an embarassingly small crowd more than protestors.
