Trump flew his moronitude high on Truth Social — with regard to World War 2 — and let's have a June parade, too!

03 May 2025

More marbles short than the bag holds?

President Trump is, arguably, an insufferable fool.

Even as compared to the morally nauseating, dead-brain Biden:

Donald Trump has declared May 8 as America's "Victory Day for World War II" and November 11 as "Victory Day for World War I."

"Many of our allies and friends are celebrating May 8 as Victory Day, but we did more than any other Country, by far, in producing a victorious result on World War II," Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform on Thursday.

"We won both Wars, nobody was close to us in terms of strength, bravery, or military brilliance, but we never celebrate anything—That's because we don't have leaders anymore, that know how to do so! We are going to start celebrating our victories again!"

In truth

Historians calculate that the fighting power of the Soviet Union caused Germany 75-80 percent of the casualties that the Third Reich military suffered in the war.

World War 2's Eastern Front was, by far, world history's most deadly war geography.

Larry Johnson . . .

. . . just as offended by Trump's jingoistic vainglory as I was, wrote that:

Despite Western glorification of World War II as an heroic victory for the United States and Britain, both countries suffered relatively few casualties compared to what the Soviet soldiers and civilians experienced. In terms of combat deaths, the United States killed-in-action for both the European and Pacific theaters totaled less than 300,000.

Soviet combat fatalities for its soldiers, sailors and airmen is estimated between 8.1 and 11 million.

Even more shocking is that as estimated 16 million to 19 million civilians were killed by the Nazis.

The Soviets, both military and civilians, surpassed the United States on every count.

If Trump is looking to celebrate a remarkable military accomplishment, he should have focused on the War in the Pacific.

In that case, the United States lost 111,000 Marines, sailors and soldiers in combat compared to staggering Japanese losses — i.e., 2.1 to 2.3 million. In other words, for every American combat casualty, 20 Japanese military personnel perished.

Why this matters

One cannot competently negotiate with other Great Powers, when one displays a mix of willful ignorance, revolting condescension, and a complete lack of the intellectually required ability to grasp — or even approximate — truth.

The moral? — Will America's narcissistic . . .

. . . blowhard, and apparently imbecilic president bring the final death blow to the once mighty American republic?

I am, sadly, no longer betting against it.

Notice here — by way of minor point-making emphasis — that:

The Army on Friday confirmed there will be a military parade on President Donald Trump’s birthday in June, as part of the celebrations around the service’s 250th birthday.

Plans for the parade, as first detailed by The Associated Press on Thursday, call for about 6,600 soldiers, 150 vehicles and 50 helicopters to follow a route from Arlington, Virginia, to the National Mall.

Until recently, the Army’s birthday festival plans did not include a massive parade, which officials say will cost tens of millions of dollars.

But Trump has long wanted a military parade, and discussions with the Pentagon about having one in conjunction with the birthday festival began less than two months ago.

The Army 250th birthday happens to coincide with Trump’s 79th birthday on June 14.

City officials, including D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser, acknowledged in April that the administration reached out to the city about holding a parade on June 14. At the time, she said that tanks rolling through the city’s streets “would not be good.”

“If military tanks were used, they should be accompanied with many millions of dollars to repair the roads,” she said.

During his first term, Trump proposed having a parade after seeing one in France on Bastille Day in 2017.

Trump said that after watching the two-hour procession along the famed Champs-Elysees he wanted an even grander one on Pennsylvania Avenue.

That plan was ultimately dumped due to the huge costs — with one estimate of a $92 million price tag — and other logistical issues.

So now, with the happy coincidence of the 250th Army anniversary and the president's birthday falling on the same day, it looks as if the Army and our Happy Toddler President are on the same page.

What's tens of millions of dollars for such a chest-thumping 'good' and street-wrecking cause?

To heck with DOGE and all the government people, whose lives that the purported government 'efficiency' effort wrecked by firing them — without a glimmer of due process, or even close administrative analysis.

We'll show those Bastille Day Frenchies.

Long live the Moron President!

Can I bring a flag, mom?
