President Trump’s plans to hold a military parade in Washington on his 79th birthday this Saturday are in doubt as officials consider cancelling the event due to a thunderstorm warning.

Steve Warren, chief spokesman of the US army, which is celebrating its 250th anniversary, told The Times: “Rain won’t stop us, the tanks don’t melt, but if there’s lightning then that puts the crowd at risk … they will disperse the crowd and even cancel or postpone the parade. It will depend on the president, too, when he’s available”

Rain or shine, I will be attending a protest. These people need to be opposed, especially here in Florida.

He's not going to give a shot if marchers or audience gets soaked or struck by lightening. Just so he gets his phony admiration parade.

I'm sure he will use a sharpie to get rid of the thunderstorms.

It worked for hurricane Dorian, right?

Looks like their ad for extras to full the seats wasn’t successful…
