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.
Anti-Trump protests sprang up across the country the same day the president was hosting a military parade in Washington.
A day of opposition to Donald Trump brought out protesters in hundreds of cities across the US on Saturday, creating a split-screen contrast with a military parade in Washington promoted by the president.
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.
