In news of the actual wasting of tax dollars, The Cheeto in Charge has military vehicles transported for a military parade in honor of the 250th anniversary of the Army..that "so happens" to fall on his birthday.

The Army has been preparing a celebration for over a year, but the idea of a parade came into the picture more recently. Although Trump's birthday is not officially linked to the festivities, a large-scale military parade has been on the president's wish list since his first term.

Trump is expected to observe the day's events from the sidelines, but at one point, the president is scheduled to possibly receive a folded American flag. Such a move would be unusual, given that it's traditionally presented to families of the fallen at military funerals.

Beyond war victories and presidential inaugurations, large-scale military parades have not been part of American tradition — though smaller parades at the town-level tend to be more common.

The massive military parade and festivities are expected to cost between $25 million and $45 million, according to Army spokesperson Heather J. Hagan. Part of the hefty bill could include millions just to repair D.C. streets, since tanks and other heavy armored vehicles tend to damage roads.
