This comment section is perfect proof that most people literally don’t read news, and have the memory and attention span of a golden retirever puppy.

The wind of the collective whoooosh from people missing the joke could be a new major source of renewable energy.
This is the sphere in Las Vegas it holds a standing room capacity of 20,000 people or about 2.3x more people than attended Donny’s birthday flop parade.Pathetic.
Nice job on our military for following orders but making it very obvious they don’t give a flying fuck about drumpf’s lousy birthday. Now that is exactly what I wanted to see-- out of step marching (they absolutely know how to march perfectly, it’s literally drilled into them), old ass machinery, and never once saying HB to that ass-clown, they made it about the army instead. Niiice
Old military equipment is part of any parade though, the tank in the photo is a ww2 Sherman.
I didn’t realize he had to sit across from empty seats, that’s fucking glorious
Did you completely miss Bernie photoshopped in?
Fyi: here’s the unaltered image
I’ve seen neater lines from middle school marching bands. What the actual fuck.
Yeah they were just kinda shuffling along.
This pic is cropped so you can’t see the empty lawn just passed the people by the fence they couldn’t see over.
Edit - Here is newsweeks slightly less cropped version and all the empty space is clearly visible.
Edit 2 - Here is a NYT photo that really shows how few people really showed up.
He looks so pathetic standing there saluting while everybody else is seated around him.
Especially since those troops are representing the Vietnam War. You know, the know he dodged the draft for.
Oh was that the moment they played ‘fortunate son’?
He was born on 3rd and thinks he hit a triple.
There are bootloads of Things you can blame Trump for, but dodging the draft for such an unnecessary stupid war is something everyone remotely intelligent person would have done if capable
It’s not only about that he dodged it, but the fact that he now has this stupid parade after dodging (and still not admitting that he was only able to dodge on a falsified doctor’s note that he got because he comes from a rich family). Either you think the military is stupid, then dodging the draft makes sense, but the parade doesn’t or the other way around. He’s just doing both which is hypocritical. Not surprising though
Yup. Like an overly enthusiastic little boy trying to make his parents happy.
Lmao that NYT photo, is this a federal parade or local band night at the city park?
Local cover band even.
I knew it was too good to be true, but it’s still funny AF.
Zoom in for details, its funny (and photoshopped)
Well now I see it, oh well I’ll leave the comment up to be mocked
No mockery needed, it’s still very valid
Even so, he’s known for waving to invisible crowds. Wasn’t there footage of him doing it when leaving court last year before E-Day?
I wonder, are the empty seats photoshopped though?
Yes.
That was my first thought.
I love the Bernie photoshop inclusion, classy.
All the mainstream media is reporting 250,000 because some trump official Xcreated that. Maybe if you include the No Kings protests going on around the parade it’s 250k
My opinion of SBS sunk further when they put ‘huge’ in the title of their article about it.
My home town has an annual 4th of july parade. They feature the High School’s marching band, about a dozen firetrucks from nearby cities, and about 160 vehicles total. The local flight school flies a loose formation of 5 Cessna 150s over the route.
Attendance is usually between 10,000 and 12,000.
8647
This apple is a bit spicy, pungent, and seems to be comprised of a lot of layers.

. . . Star Trek?
Our Pensacola Mardi Gras parades stomps whatever that pathetic show was.
My initial reaction was embarrassment for Trump.
Trump would tell us that your parade’s attendance is about 500 losers, his parade had well over 200,000 very fine people.
Bro, the protest in fucking wichita had ~5k
That is saaad
Does Wichita even have 5k
(Which Wichita? lol,)
400k (half of SF) interesting!
Kansas, and shockingly yes
The saddest trombone.
What a fucking loser.
Putinesque feculance
Ah yes, Milkshake.
Is that a WW2 tank?
Yes. The thing was to showcase 250 years of American Army, not modern shit.
I would have loved it for historical interest if anyone else was President :(
nah military is demodernizing to WW2 tanks, Make Tanks Great Again?
Apparently they had to rent them from movie prop houses.
sherman
Q: Is that a WWII tank?
A: Sure, man.
Q: Cool, what kind of tank is it?
A: Sure, man.
Q: Um, I’m just trying to find out what kind of tank it is.
A: And I’m telling you. Sure, man.
Is that a firefly quote?

So 8 highschools. That’s pretty good. A well known Mexican Pueblo doesn’t even match that by at least 5 or 6 more people for Sunday church.
Four public high schools in my city and their combined attendance is over 9000
The 3 in my district total over 7400. He/she must be talking about small towns schools.
My highschool was more than 2000 people. And it was so new that our first semester was on two different campuses and they were still building int around us for another two years when we did move in.
Now I live in a very different area. The localist mega church gets 17,000+ butts in seats each week.
8500 people is less than normal tourism on a Saturday for DC. It was actually a net negative for attendance over just a normal day.
Not even 4 for my area. Those are some pretty small schools if it took 8.
Doesn’t matter. Hell just lie and say 800 million people attended.
Not sure I believe that number. But hell, I can’t estimate crowds to save my life. At one point I was in the largest rock concert of all time, still have no clue.
All I can say is the one I went to easily had 2,000. And that’s in the reddest part of Florida, and only 1 of 2 protests in Pensacola.
If you have aerial footage you can use Map Checking
86-47
Rockfest, Texas Motor Speedway, 1998?
Not sure if I’m misunderstanding you here… But the number from this post is for the stupid military parade in DC with the tanks, not the no kings protests. I’ve seen claims that there were over 6 million attendees for those.
