Trump's birthday parade in Washington DC has backfired on him.
Transcript
[Harry Sisson] All right so check this out donald Trump
just got embarrassed in the best way
possible you know his birthday military
parade that he's having in Washington DC
today yeah it's totally empty nobody
showed up to see Donald Trump's birthday
event there's a video here of the empty
crowd from a journalist who works for
NBC 4 which is a local outlet in
Washington DC and you can see just how
empty it is now there is some music in
the background so I can't I can't
unfortunately play the music for you and
the sound but the video just gives you
an idea of how empty the protest the the
the parade is for Donald Trump look at
it look at all this open grass if you've
been to DC this is the National Mall in
front of the Washington Monument and
there's nobody there there's nobody
there just look at the pan of these
empty fields in DC after Donald Trump
had hyped this up spent tens of millions
of dollars on holding it just for it to
be a complete dud and on top of this it
actually started 30 minutes early due to
incoming weather so it quite literally
rained on Donald Trump's parade now
Donald Trump was telling us that around
200,000 people would attend this parade
for Donald Trump his birthday
celebration but as you can see from this
video it is absolutely nowhere near
200,000 it's not even close there might
be a thousand maybe two in that photo
and before MAGA says "Oh this is just a
selective video you're only looking at
one part of the crowd." Even JD Vance
the vice president of the United States
posted a photo of the crowd and he said
quote "Quite a view he's on the stage
where the event is being held the main
event where him Donald Trump and other
administration officials are and even in
the photo he posted you can see all the
green in the background you can see all
the empty patches and this comes after
Donald Trump said again 200,000 people
were expected except uh in the own the
photo coming from the vice president of
the United States Donald Trump's own
best buddy his own administration
official it is empty and there's also
other people on the ground like Keith
Edwards who you may know from YouTube
he's there and look at this photo as
well completely empty there is so much
green space and the unfortunate reality
for Donald Trump is that even for the
people that did come to his birthday
celebration they didn't put up any
risers so nobody can see anything look
at all these people right here of which
there are really not many the line
doesn't go back all that far they can't
see anything because there are no risers
all of these barricades you can see on
the right side of your screen in front
of the road they're blocking their view
so Donald Trump's birthday bash his
birthday parade is already off to a
terrible start and because of this
Donald Trump is getting badly trolled on
social media.
For example, the Lincoln
Project who of course Donald Trump
despises did a side-by-side comparison of
his birthday parade to the No Kings
March in San Diego.
This is Donald
Trump's birthday parade. There's nobody
there.
This was San Diego earlier today a
huge anti-Trump protest taking place in
the great city the beautiful city of San
Diego i mean there are tens of thousands
per perhaps hundred thousand people at
that rally in San Francisco at that
protest i mean just a remarkable show of
anti-Trump anti-MAGA sentiment in the
United States today and it doesn't stop
there.
Donald Trump actually got trolled
as well and mocked by Gavin Newsome's
team the Governor Nuomo press office
released this tweet earlier today
including the photo from Donald Trump's
parade and a photo of Sean Spicer Donald
Trump's former press secretary when he
said it was the biggest inauguration
ever and they replaced the photo with
Donald Trump's birthday parade and they
titled it "This is the largest
presidential birthday party ever." And
I'm sure that this is going to drive
Donald Trump nuts.
But the really funny
thing about all of this is that it
doesn't even seem like anybody in
Trump's administration is enjoying
themselves at the protest we have video
footage of Marco Rubio, Kristi Noem, and
Donald Trump at this parade watching it,
and they do not look happy. They look
like they would rather be anywhere else.
Take a look at Donald Trump's reaction.
He does not look happy; he looks furious.
He looks, as I said, like he'd rather be
anywhere else.
You can see Pete Hegseth on
his right,
Melania Trump on his left. They
too look incredibly upset. They too look
incredibly embarrassed, and maybe they
realize that the optics of this
multi-million tens of millions of dollar
military parade that Donald Trump hosted
are pretty terrible.
He promised all
these people just for it to completely
flop, for us to waste all this money, and
waste everybody's time. And also I want
to show you other clips.
For example, take
a look at Marco Rubio who looks very
unhappy as well.
Oh yeah. You know, this guy just looks so
happy to be there. He's yawning; he's
yawning while Donald Trump's birthday
bash takes place.
And the final clip I
want to show you of another Trump
administration official is Kristy Noem,
who is shaking her head in DIS-approval.
[Applause]
Yeah, Kristi Noem, same boat as Trump and
Rubio. Not happy to be there.
And even the
person, the guy, who I'm not sure who that
is, sitting in front of her, is on his
phone. He's on his phone.
And that's
Senator Joni Ernst in the red. She
looks uncomfortable as anything.
So Trump's parade is completely backfiring
on him. This birthday bash that he has
been so excited about is a dud. It is, as
I said, quite literally raining on his
parade. And I do want to highlight that
while all of this is taking place, while
Donald Trump has been has been
completely humiliated by this dud of a
birthday parade, meanwhile tens of
thousands of Americans are out there
protesting, making their voices heard.
Realistically, millions of Americans at
one point during the day at these
different No Kings protests.
As I said
this was San Diego a remarkable photo
showing so many thousands of people and
of course I went to a No Kings protest
in Manhattan New York City this is a
video I took take a look i haven't seen
We haven't seen one person
huge let me tell you when I was there it
was blocks and blocks perhaps miles
filled with people you see how these
streets here are just filled to the brim
with people it was like that for around
20 to 30 blocks in Manhattan and if
you've been to Manhattan you know how
significant that that is you know how
wide the streets are there were probably
over a 100,000 people if not 200,000
people at the protest in New York City
we don't have exact numbers just yet but
a major major showing so while all these
people are getting out there and making
their voices heard saying we do not
stand for what Donald Trump is doing
enough is enough donald Trump is having
this embarrassing utterly humiliating
birthday parade of which he was so
excited and spent so much money on so
much time on just for it to completely
backfire on him so happy birthday Trump
you got what you deserved americans out
there millions of them are protesting
against you and your little birthday
bash that we all said was a terrible
idea completely backfired what an
amazing day for democracy what an
amazing day for people who oppose the
insanity of the Trump administration so

empty birthday parade but thank you so
