45. Headline is deceptive - consider the source.

Nov 2019

The article of origin is from a Rupert Murdoch (News Corp) rag obviously completely lacking in editorial credibility.

If tRump truly lead a parade in NYC, the entire supply of eggs in the city would be exhausted in minutes.....

Link to original article in NYP: https://nypost.com/2019/11/06/trump-to-kick-off-100th-veterans-day-parade-in-nyc-on-monday/

Note the headline says "kick-off" rather than "lead".

This, too:

Trump won’t be marching in the parade after his opening ceremony speech. But Marine Corps Commandant Gen. David Berger will serve as honorary grand marshal and will lead a contingent of Marines up Fifth Avenue.

Trump recently bid adieu to New York City and named Mar-a-Lago his permanent residence. But the former New Yorker will stick around after the parade for a speech at the Economic Club on Tuesday.
