Seems that many of those who didn't give their review of the parade well before it took place (like CNN) were pleasantly shocked by it in that Trump really kept politics out of it for the most part. And that includes a significant portion of what constitutes the TDS brigade. Slate for one said it was pretty good[1] and "was fairly tame":Originally posted by carpedm9587 View PostBecause I don't believe $92M in tax payer dollars should be spent on an ego-driven campaign rally.

And this was after running multiple stories about how Trump was going to ruin everything.

My sister and brother-in-law went to the National Mall, as they have for the past 10 years, and said it was the best fireworks display by far they have seen there.Originally posted by carpedm9587 View PostThat's what

I went the first or second summer I was in the area, and tbh wasn't especially impressed.Originally posted by carpedm9587 View Post
I didn't get to see any fireworks this year, since they were held at my vacationing spot the night before and I didn't take the time off from work it would have required to see them.Veritas vos Liberabit<>< Learn Greek <>< Look here for an Orthodox Church in America<><Ancient Faith Radio

How bad was the weather in DC, anyway? It was pretty miserable down here in NC that night, though the local display still managed to run."I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right!

Apparently fairly miserable (I left DC about 7 AM on the 4th), but they managed to find a decent-ish period for Trump's speech and the flyovers, and were able to put on the fireworks display.Originally posted by KingsGambit View PostVeritas vos Liberabit<>< Learn Greek <>< Look here for an Orthodox Church in America<><Ancient Faith Radio
