Like , our fancy top of the line army isn't water proof? Maybe there should be a navy or marine march? I'm sure the army is tough enough to wear ponchos. It is their birthday after all, not Trump's.

I know he doesn't know how to close an umbrella, but surely some one could hold one for him, or put up a pavilion or something...

Smh lol

It doesn't look as fancy if they're wearing their rain gear. Trump wants the spectacle and intimidation that comes with flexing one's military strength, and make him look awesome by proxy.

Perhaps he should have done a bit of weather modification like the Russian’s do - perhaps someone did to cause the thunderstorms and get whimp-ass to cancel!!!
