In reply to the discussion: Trump to Lead 100th Veterans Day Parade in New York [View all]KY_EnviroGuy
(14,488 posts)45. Headline is deceptive - consider the source.
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 wont 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.

Trump screwed vets in his budget, and stole money from their kids to build his wall.

Trump does not want to salute the military. He wants the world to see the military salute him.

Trump has been a "great supporter" of veterans??? Sure, Bill, that's why he cut the waiting list

I don't care if he's grand marshal; I want to see a U.S. marshal at the end of the parade
