    "The free market will seize the means of production for us!"

    "Don't mind him. He means well. Got kicked in the head as a child by a mule, though."

    "From each according to market demand, to each according to the growth of his assets."

    "Yeah, okay, buddy. You hang in there."

        I had a look at some of the recordings, and the whole thing was just poorly executed. Surely the us military can march better? I have seen kids in school wind orchestras get drilled to a much higher standard in a few evenings, some of the soldiers were walking completely out of beat with the rest.

        Soldiers are generally very reluctant about being part of a parade. To put it mildly. That's even true for nations where they're common so in a country where people signed up assuming they'll never have to perform for dear leader the result looks like this.

          So, poorly executed, yes. Honestly, they're not really great at marching, nor should they be. Outside of ceremonial units like Honor Guard, the US military sucks at marching. It's not a bad thing. Marching isn't relevant to combat anymore, so competent militaries don't invest much in it. Most world leaders know this and don't lean hard on parades for propaganda if they have an effective military, or if not, they at least spend an absurd amount of resources training soldiers to perform well enough to impress the public. What we're seeing here is the head of an organization fundamentally ignorant of the goals and methods of a modern military, and also too inexperienced to know how to put on a good show as an alternative. Yes, marching bands get more practice marching and have higher standards for marching than most of the US military. That's the way it should be. The problem here is that this guy doesn't know what militaries are for, how to use them, or even how to put on a decent show.

              I was told there would be so much heavy equipment it would destroy the road for three generations. Oh look it's heavy equipment from over three generations ago.

                Don't worry. I'm sure the US government will offer the Trump Organization a no-bid contract to fix those roads right up.

                  The No Kings March in many individual cities outnumbered the crowd at the birthday boy's battledress burlesque; you're correct.

                    Alliteration artfully amplifies amusement and adds alluring appeal.

                          They could be. But then they would be a dictator’s military - all about looks and shitty at everything else. The kind that gets conscripted to be thrown at enemy combatants as cannon fodder to die for the glory of their leader. The US military is a logistical fighting force, that’s what they’re good at. Not dressing up and goose-stepping polished and pretty for nationalistic display.

                                    Nixon instituted inflation as we know it because of the Vietnam War, and inequality skyrocketed. It's a lot easier to strike with savings than with credit scores.

                                      This looks like malicious compliance to me.

                                      They were probably given a list of things that the parade had to have and they went down the list. Marching in formation (doesn't say in step anywhere), check. Tanks (from 1980), check. Soldiers with drones (from Best Buy), check. Music, check.

                                          This kind of reminds me of the year China put on a pretty spectacular Olympics opening show compared with the Superbowl half time show headlined by the... Black Eyed Peas :<
