6. I wouldn't be so sure of that. Not in today's new USA. It won't be
long before folks start disappearing if they disagree with the chimperor.

3. how does he know who he is today?
He isn't wearing one of those fancy jackets with his name embroidered on it? He usually dresses up for these occasions.

14. I'm kind of shocked they don't have him in some sort of costume.
You're right, usually he'd have a military outfit of some sort on.

5. I heard some of this today and the applause was minimal.
They've heard it all before and know they will be the ones sent to die.

7. One half-assed smile in all those pics: Chow line (3rd from right)

11. How more deluded can he get.
Those troops seem to have, "Why don't you come with us on our next tour?" written all over their faces.

12. Many seen to have that "What the hell is this ass-clown doing here"?
Look on their faces. I wish he'd visit a prison and get shanked in the chow line...
