With Trump You Get Military Parades

by | Jan 19, 2017

Donald Trump says:

“Being a great president has to do with a lot of things, but one of them is being a great cheerleader for the country. And we’re going to show the people as we build up our military, we’re going to display our military.

“That military may come marching down Pennsylvania Avenue. That military may be flying over New York City and Washington, D.C., for parades. I mean, we’re going to be showing our military.”

This is just one way, he says, he’ll show he’s making American great again.

Heaven help us.
