There are certain cultural things that are ingrained in people.
Some are consciously aware of it.
Others do it unconsciously.
When you understand what for the people by the people means and how it is ingrained in the American psyche, you will undersyand why that parade and the way it was framed was doomed to failure.

Who says that it was a flop?
Certainly not our colleague BeatDBalls, who was present all decked out in his military attire. Oh, it's good to be a veteran!

Timing.
It is a hard sell celebrating things of war when people want peace.
And not because we are hippies but war cost money.
War and parades cost money. More money than a dozen eggs.

Let's blame the flop on the No Kings 'protests'.
Were the No Kings protests the largest single-day demonstration in American history?
The mainstream media must've missed it.

Were the No Kings protests the largest single-day demonstration in American history?
The scale of last weekend’s “No Kings” protests is now becoming clearer, with one estimate suggesting that Saturday was among the biggest ever single-day protests in US history.
Working out exactly where the protest ranks compared to similar recent events has been a project of G Elliott Morris, a data journalist who runs the Substack Strength in Numbers, calculated turnout between four million and six million, which would be 1.2-1.8% of the US population. This could exceed the previous record in recent history, when between 3.3 million and 5.6 million people showed up at the 2017 Women’s March to rally against Trump’s misogynistic rhetoric.

Now look at this, FoxNews getting in on the act.
I led National Guard and regular Army units. Using the military to intimidate Americans is 100% wrong
