Donald Trump just got snubbed
Imagine this: winds are howling, the tide waters are raging, and out of the water comes — out of the water comes a sea monster. Poking his head above water, he bares his teeth menacingly, and the people around the sea monster? They carry on sunbathing, beach picnicking, swimming, and ignoring the agonizingly ugly sea monster no matter how hard he splashes, and tries to get their attention.
This is the world of Donald Trump — or, at least, it will be on June 14. My dear friends, it gives me tremulous amounts of joy to inform you that Donald Trump’s military parade likely won’t get the ratings he was counting on. Why? Because many stations aren’t even carrying it.
There are multiple reports that networks are choosing to snub the orange monstrosity’s parade. It’s a difficult (ha!) decision but alas! The choice was made to cover other events instead — like sports! Well, that’s a great decision! After all, sports are the spirit of America. An abusive parade for an eternal loser most certainly is not!
ABC — They will be streaming it, of course. But they have the UFL championship at stake on their main network, and they’re not about to cancel that. So Trump’s little boy parade will not air in primetime; at least, that’s what they’re saying at the time of this writing.
NBC. The event will be covered, but it’ll ALSO be streamed. The fact is many of these networks have sports events going on, and when it came time for them to choose, they seemed to have selected sports — not the self-absorbed parade of one Donald John Trump.
Oh, how angry Trump must be! Oh, how upset! But there’s more. Republicans far and wide, high and low — (very low) are choosing not to attend this delightful event. So many Republicans will be absent. The excuses vary, but I’m sure it is all for the same reason. They are embarrassed.
Who wouldn’t be? Nobody wants to see this except for perhaps a few MAHA sheep (Megyn Kelly perhaps, Tucker Carlson, possibly) but nobody with any degree of sanity. Many would prefer to walk over broken glass than catch one moment of the orange mess trying to look like royalty and only succeeding in looking like a lily-livered, orange bellied (plump-bellied) coward.
So, yes, the parade will go on — without the coverage of many a TV station, without asses in seats to watch the old man make a fool of himself. You know that expression, if a tree falls and nobody’s around to hear it, did it make a sound? That’s this parade. Of course, if one is determined to watch it, I’m sure Fox will be carrying it live.
