    Can't wait until he has a similar idea for cops and firefighters. Budweiser, Ford and Ashley Madison will sponsor that in a heartbeat.

    Of course Donald Trump wants a big, shiny military parade - CNNPolitics

    "Trump was openly admiring of the Bastille Day celebration, calling it "one of the greatest parades" he had ever witnessed. (How many parades has he witnessed?) The White House quickly sought to paint the idea as a natural outgrowth of the President's love of and appreciation for the military.

    "President Trump is incredibly supportive of America's great service members who risk their lives every day to keep our country safe," said White House press secretary Sarah Sanders."He has asked the Department of Defense to explore a celebration at which all Americans can show their appreciation."

    That stance is a purposeful one designed to cast anyone who objects to a military parade through the streets of Washington as unpatriotic, cynical or both."

    DC mayor's office: Like the wall, Trump would have to pay for military parade

    "A spokeswoman for D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser on Wednesday ruled out any notion of the District paying for President Trump's proposed military parade, saying that Trump would have to pay for it himself.

    Anu Rangappa said there has not yet been formal outreach to D.C. officials about the proposed parade.

    "In the meantime, we do know that, just like the wall, he will have to pay for it," she said, referring to Trump's proposed border wall between the U.S. and Mexico. Funding requests for that project have hit staunch opposition in Congress."

    While the plan is reportedly in its early stages, such a parade could cost millions of dollars. Military officials told the Post that they did not know how the U.S. would pay for such an event."

    Is it "an effort to honor the military"?

    Or an effort to aggrandize himself?

    And don't report on good news, otherwise the stock market will fall.
