"I don't feel like a king. I have to go through hell to get stuff approved. A king would say I’m not gonna get this," he said. "No, no, we're not a king, we’re not a king at all."

Literally using the royal "we" when saying he's not a king. That's something you don't see every day.

Utterly pathetic. And it sounds like he's lamenting his lack of unilateral authority rather than dismissing its possibility. So, no great save there either.

Most of the groups of soldiers barely take up a single lane on the street, a fraction of the attendance expected, what looks like single digits of each type of military vehicle, and bootlicking ABC still calls it "massive"

It's massive in that I don't know if America has had a military parade since the world wars so anything is a lot. It also somehow tens of millions of taxpayer money as they continue hypocritically spouting about government waste.

The last military parade in DC was in 1991 at the end of the Gulf War.
