Pricey Diary,
I did NOT have the birthday of my goals final weekend! Everybody is aware of that 79 is the tank birthday. One is paper, 77 is emoluments, 78 you get to destroy one constitutional modification of your selecting, 80 you get to turn into the state, however 79 is tanks, and I used to be so trying ahead to my tank birthday.
I assumed it was fairly clear what I wished. However clearly, it wasn’t!!! This was just like the form of tank parade your mother makes you lovingly from scratch, and I wished the form of tank parade that’s made in China or North Korea. I don’t need a particular American tank parade the place our troopers are waving and smiling out of the tanks. I would like one like my pals have.
I wished tanks, however I acquired OLD tanks. I wished marching, however I acquired the unsuitable form of marching, the place they didn’t even do the little high-kick factor. I wished hundreds of thousands of individuals to return out and cheer and maintain up footage of my face they usually did, however all of them went to the unsuitable locations.
What does a president need to do to get the correct of birthday tank parade? I’ve been dispatching troops to American cities and Stephen Miller is overtly speculating about rolling again habeas corpus; it isn’t even delicate at this level what sort of authorities I’m going for!
My parade was simply terrible. It was all concerning the Military, which, okay, is popping 250, however solely within the literal sense. First, a man dressed as George Washington rode by on a horse. I don’t know why we make such a giant fuss about this previous toothless man who gave up energy on goal. We used to have a king, and now we don’t, and it’s all due to this loser! Additionally, he was clearly carrying a wig. Additionally they retold a part of the plot of the musical Hamiltonwhich felt like a private affront.
Then Civil Conflict troopers marched by, however they had been within the WRONG COLOR uniform, not the one worn by the parents who all our greatest forts are named for, however the blue one. That is the Military’s DEI at work once more.
All through the parade, they stored making an attempt to inform us enjoyable info about historical past. Do I appear like somebody who needs a historical past lesson? No! I’m any person who needs to repeat historical past, not any person who needs to be taught it.
It was sponsored by Palantir, which was SOMETHING, I suppose.
I had been pondering extra alongside the strains of: Somebody comes out to sing the nationwide anthem after which stops, winks, turns to me, and begins singing “Comfortable Birthday” in a breathy voice as a substitute. Then the Military rolls up with an unlimited cake. However wait, what’s that within the cake? Might it’s? I reduce into the cake with a giant sword to disclose A BRAND-NEW TANK! (Whoever finds the tank within the cake will get to be king for all times!) Everybody claps.
Whoa! What’s that, parachuting out of the sky? It’s one other tank, like within the Quick and the Livid sequence of movies! And who’s that, lifting the lid of the tank? It’s the pope!
“Sorry,” he says. “It was all a joke about me being pope. Right here, strive on my pointy white hat! I do know you like a sharp white hat! You may be an incredible pope. The very best pope.” Then the tank releases particular red-white-and-blue smoke to point {that a} new, higher pope has been chosen: purple for MAGA, white for pope, and blue to point that the pope is a boy.
Then they sing “Reminiscences,” from the musical CATS! William McKinley rides by on a tariff and offers me a thumbs-up!
Then the Military goes by, however larger and extra excited this time. They’re lastly doing the high-kick factor! Then my dad climbs out of the tank and says, “The outlet in you that has by no means been crammed is full now!” and whispers, “I’ve a particular shock for you, my greatest boy! Look out your window, Donald, and see!” I run to the window and it’s the ’80s once more! Lastly! In every single place I look there are flags, and so many {dollars}, and a bald eagle, and an oil nicely spouting for pleasure. I’m the president, and the pope, and the tank has made me king for all times! It’s the greatest birthday ever!
For sure, that is NOT what occurred.
They’d higher do higher for my eightieth.
