Trump Parades Ego Before Troops, Nation Yawns
By Vixen Vile, Published 9 hours ago
Ah, the spectacle of it all. Donald Trump, the man whose hair has more volume than his policies, decided it was high time to indulge in a little self-celebration. Not content with merely holding office, he must have thought, "Why not throw a parade to stroke my ego while my tax-deductible toupee waves in the wind?" And thus, the nation was treated to a dazzling display of military might, because who needs tanks when you've got Trump's approval ratings to crush dissent.
Meanwhile, across the land, the people were having none of it. From sea to shining sea, Americans gathered in "No Kings" rallies, which, let's face it, is just a polite way of saying, "We'd rather be governed by a potato." These events, brimming with signs and slogans, proved that not everyone was buying into the Trump spectacle. They were there to remind the world that America was meant to be a republic, not a monarchy, even if its current leader seems to think he's descended from King George's less charming cousin.
In an act of defiance that could only be described as "politely annoyed," these protesters made it clear that they weren't just against Trump; they were against the very idea of a president playing dress-up with military might. Sure, they could have been at home, binge-watching Netflix or practicing their escape plans for the impending apocalypse, but no, they chose democracy. Their message? "Give us liberty or give us something less Trump."
