Donald Trump threw a military parade in honor of the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary on Saturday, June 14 (a date that happens to be the president’s birthday) to the tune of $25 to $45 million. But unfortunately for Trump, photos and videos from the big day show sparse attendance and a lack of organization from top to bottom.
Rain dampened President Donald Trump's parade to celebrate the U.S. Army's 250th birthday with thousands of troops, 150 vehicles and 50 aircraft in a parade, concert and fireworks.
Organizers say about 2,000 protests took place across every state in direct response to President Donald Trump’s military parade in Washington, D.C., marking the U.S. Army’s 250th birthday.
Anti-Trump protests sprang up across the country the same day the president was hosting a military parade in Washington.
The demonstrations come on the heels of protests flaring up around the country over federal immigration enforcement raids that began last week and Trump ordering National Guard troops and Marines to Los Angeles where protesters blocked a freeway and set cars on fire.
The parade was the spectacle event Trump had long wanted. It also helped sparked the largest mass opposition to him since his inauguration 145 days earlier.
