So is Trump still trying to get a military parade in Washington?

Remember a little while back he wanted one and it raised a few eyebrows. Haven't heard much about it lately. Has he forgotten it? Or was it basically part of his SOP where he makes crazy plans and announcements, simply to try and keep people of balance?

Things Dictators Do - Trump Military Parade Is Going to Happen


Trump tells Pentagon to explore staging military parade

The White House confirmed on Tuesday that President Donald Trump has asked the Pentagon to explore organizing a major military parade -- a desire he first expressed after the martial welcome he received on a visit to France last year.

....

“The marching orders were: I want a parade like the one in France,” a military official told The Post. “This is being worked at the highest levels of the military.”

...

We have more important things to do than to focus on a damn parade,” retired Army Lt. Gen. Mick Bednarek, who most recently headed up the U.S.-led effort against ISIS in Iraq and Syria, told POLITICO. “It detracts from all we are doing.”

...

Trump has long been fascinated by the prospect of a military parade and has previously mused to administration officials about holding one in Washington, according to aides. But it wasn’t clear until Tuesday how serious he was about the plan.

It was exactly a year ago, following a visit to France, and watching the July 14 French military parade. He ordered the US military to present plans and they're still looking into it.

@Northwest I believe there are still tentative plans to have one on Veterans Day to show the world how big his missile is.

I think marching him out of the White House and into federal prison would be a nice parade.

Hope the band plays The Harder They Come ✌
