HOT TOPICS | Trump's Birthday Parade FLOP! - June 16th, 2025
Manage episode 489108956 series 3653585
Well, that was...underwhelming. Trump’s $45 million birthday bash-slash-military-parade was supposed to be a flex. Instead, it flopped harder than his NFT collection. Sparse crowds, low energy, and, according to many who watched, absolutely boring. Meanwhile, the No Kings protest turned into something historic. Data analysts are reporting it may be the largest protest in U.S. history. The streets were packed, the message was clear, and no tanks were needed to get people to show up. So...remind us again who’s got the momentum? Join us as we unpack the embarrassing contrast, the wasted taxpayer dollars, and why Trump’s obsession with spectacle can’t hide the growing dissent.
