You KNOW he is planning . . .

. . . a HUGE "Victory In Iran" celebration and parade for July 4. You know he is.

Complete with tanks and other armored vehicles all of which had NO PART IN THE WAR roaring down Constitution Ave, ripping up the asphalt, not giving DC the money to repair.

Complete with an unending flyover by every aircraft in the inventory.

Complete with the USAF Thunderbirds and USN Blue Angels (WITHOUT THOSE DEI FEMALE PILOTS) performing stunts all day long (shut down all commercial air traffic in/out of Washington National Airport).

Complete with the lead vehicle being a HUMVEE with .50-cal machine GUN mounted, with Secretary of War Hogsbreath standing beside the .50-cal, saluting the Commander In Chief (that is, if they can get Hogsbreath sober).

YOU KNOW THIS IS WHAT HE'S PLANNING.

No fucking way he's out of this by memorial day if Iran now decides otherwise.

And if that's what does happen, he can throw all the parades he wants, his CEILING will be 25%.
