Donald I, emperor of the world.

Haha. Flop. Tiny crowds, and the troops 'marching' can't even be bothered to march in step. Shambles.

That isn't marching, it is casual walking. 😂😂😂
And Fortunate Son? A hidden protest methinks.
The meaning of this track was explained by John Fogerty who said, "The song speaks more to the unfairness of class than war itself. It's the old saying about rich men making war and poor men having to fight them."

Oh southern leftie wokey type?

I'm of the growing opinion that you may see this as a bad thing . . .

You think that's some sort of , wow, look we took a snapshot showing low levels of attendance?

When a democrat worker appointed by Tim Walz gunned down two elected democrat officials because they voted with the republicans.

I must admit, even I was assuming Trump was expecting something more Kim Jong Un-ish, so this comparison does seem apt:

I suspect he's going to be bigly mad.

Were there any of the military’s new Tesla Cybertrcuks in the parade?

Perhaps he shouldn’t have chosen the same day as the Trooping of the Colour. Even a monarch-sceptic* like me can admire the discipline and precision, even if I find it bonkers.


*couldn’t call myself a republican for some reason….

I hope you'll excuse me if I don't check the 2.5 hours of video coverage to check.

North Korea do put on an impressive show.

Clearly Trump's threats to the very existence of public broadcasting have been effective: they daren't say 'debunked' or 'disproven' for 'miasma theory' and put 'germ theory' in scare quotes, as if it is on an equal footing with 'miasma theory'.

No, NPR, that he's an anti-vax loon would explain the actions he's taking.

As I see it, I'm surprised how quickly US power is diminishing under Trump. His early days and policy direction were clearly going to make US less relevant to the rest of the world and that they would be losing power and influence. But it's happening really quickly. eg for years Netanyahu has been desperate to attack Iran but US has always stopped him; yet despite Trump's in person public announcement he didn't want them to attack they just ignored US wishes and went ahead anyway. Trump wants Putin to back off in Ukraine but US completely ignored.

And so many countries that rarely feature in western news reports are already moving closer to China.

Happening really fast and won't be quick for whoever succeeds Trump to reverse.
