So apparently TikTokers are showing their tickets online to the Trump birthday parade with no intention of attending.

They signed up with names like Barack Obama, Youra WasteofSkin and Ray Peest. My personal favorite was Elon Epstein 🥴

It looked as though it was very well attended though, sadly.

@Hopelandia Only if you see coverage with tight shots. You can find footage online with wider angles and it was a ghost town.

@Hopelandia
No it wasn't well attended! Don't kid yourself! There was hardly anyone there.

@Hopelandia actually, only about 9000 people showed up
100,000 plus were predicted

They have been doing this for his rallies too going as far back as the campaign of 2016. It has been surprisingly effective and the Trump team hasn't figured it out in almost a decade.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow I think that now I know people are doing that I'll do that at his next rally, we need one extra person for the resistance 💪

I just love the video that blew up. The few people who are there at the parade are so silent you can hear the tank squeaking as it drives through.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow While I thought it was funny, I did think it was creepy. I remember seeing a video recently about a dictator who got overthrown but there's a video of him speaking with applause. And it was an applause machine. Kind of eerie and freaked me out. It was a video about a dictator who was assassinated live on TV with the help of his closest people and when there was an applause machine, protesters tried to storm his building while he killed all of them. It was so bad, they reportedly needed buckets to clean up the blood.

The parade reminded me of the applause machine with no one there. I found the video funny but with an underlying sense of creep factor as it reminded me of the dictator with the applause machine.

@SatanBurger It just makes me wonder. It makes it feel more like hired extras in cosplay which makes you wonder if large numbers of the actual army noped out of this train wreck.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow Whaaaaa? With the way he's disrespected members of the military over the last decade? No way! 😆
