YES. I've started planning for the 4th, and all I'm doing is coming into work to clean up my office. It should be quite an event!

Sounds like Drumpf hired the team from the Fyre Festival to put on the Fourth of July celebration this year.

Love Emmo, but this was the height of his cocaine phase and he plays it too darn fast.

While I applaud your idea, you should have said "cheap drones with votes." I imagine the Secret Service these days has measures to shoot down drones flying over restricted airspace. At least I hope so, or not - depending on your point of view.

So, a Soviet style parade of tanks and a speech by Dear Leader for the 4th of July. Scary. And where will his Politburo be standing for the fireworks celebration? This country is stumbling closer and closer to the abyss by the minute. I fear that the next time he rolls tanks into DC he (and the tanks) won't be leaving.

FTFY.

EDIT: Though I guess a piss show would be a break from the usual shit show.

Well, I;m sure they can't beat the spectacle they had on Inauguration Day. Biggest crowds EVER! The pics don's lie! Do the research!

Let's really get into the spirit of Donnie's Big 4th of July Jamboree! A modest proposal...

Thank the Ascended Madoka, Benedict Donald lacks both the brains and the balls to make himself a dictator.

Until the Democrats took the House back last November, that may have been the only thing which saved the Republic.

Putin would have rejected him if he did have the right stuff for dictatorship; Putin wants a weak puppet, not a fellow dictator capable of double-crossing him, as Hitler double-crossed Stalin in June 1941, when Stalin woke up on June 22 with Hitler's "friendship" buried between his shoulder blades.

While the wing nuts are distracted, maybe real patriots could do something to really celebrate the spirit of July 4th. Maybe, I don't know....bust kids out of the Trump baby jails?

If I were in charge of D.C. municipal government, I'd tell the dumb Turnip that he gets NO municipal services UNTIL he gets current on his outstanding bill, AND pays IN ADVANCE for his latest hoopla.They could easily shut him down on this ridiculous boondoggle.

Hrm. Yeah, Stalin knew lebensraum meant Ukraine, etc. He needed time to make a plan [besides the usual scorched earth retreat to the interior] and make war defense material. Personally, I think he fully expected Hitler to attack, and just wanted to put him off as long as possible, until his country was more prepared.Some have made that same argument for Neville Chamberlain--while it's possible (UK certainly wasn't as ready as she would be later) that's true, UK really needed a PM on a determined war footing.Sheesh. Now I'm remembering Eden, et al. Headache!
