Welcome to Washington, D.C., June 14th, 2025: A day so bloated with ego, it needed military escorts just to get through breakfast.
Because this wasnât just any parade, folks.
This was FOTUSâ birthday present to himself.
 You heard me. The tanks, the jets, the barricades, the fireworks over a Constitution theyâve never readâ all lovingly wrapped in red-white-and-bullshit for a man who thinks âdemocracyâ is a punchline and âKing Meâ isnât just a checkers move.
They called it a celebration.
 But what we got?
 Was a cemetery of applause.
Tanks clanked down Constitution AvenueâCONSTITUTION AVENUE, the irony is so thick you could spread it on a subpoenaârolling past empty bleachers, soulless VIP pens, and a crowd so lifeless it looked like stock footage of a Soviet breadline.
And the sound?
 No cheers.
 No chants.
 Just the rumble of engines and the faint whimper of democracy being held hostage in a photo op.
 You ever seen a parade so grim it made funerals look festive?
And this was after the media hype machine tried to blow it up like a Super Bowl.
 They promised âhundreds of thousands.â
 What they got?
Dozens of hundredsâand most of those were security, staffers, or tourists looking for the goddamn Smithsonian.
Meanwhileâwhile Emperor Spraytan played make-believe commander-in-chiefâthe rest of the country said, âNah.â
They showed up somewhere else.
They marched in the streets.
 They held signs.
 They sang, they chanted, they locked arms.
Five. To. Twelve. MILLION. People.
 Across over two thousand cities.
 No tanks. No helicopters.
 Just conviction, cardboard, and comfortable shoes.
They called it the âNo Kingsâ Protest.
 And it wasnât about party.
 It was about principle.
 It was about not letting a tantrum-prone tyrant cosplay as George Washington with a golf cart.
And get thisâit was peaceful.
 Not mostly. Not kind of.
PEACEFUL.
 The cops showed up late in some citiesâmostly because they were stuck trying to figure out if they were supposed to salute the tanks or kneel for the people.
Now let me ask youâif one man needs fighter jets, tanks, fences, cops, a literal flood of cash, and zero public enthusiasm just to throw himself a birthday partyâŚ
 While the rest of the country shows up in mass, on foot, with protest signs and no violenceâŚ
Whoâs the real leader?
 Whoâs got the mandate?
âCause Iâll tell you what I saw:
- One man playing with toys in a parade no one clapped for.
- And a nationwide movement reminding the world that democracy isnât about who shouts loudest with a tankâitâs about who stands firm without one.
And if you think Iâm exaggerating?
 Watch the tape.
 Listen to the silence.
 Youâll hear engines rumbling and democracy screaming in the background, trying to get a word in edgewise.
𧨠END STAGE: THE BIRTHDAY BOY GETS HIS CANDLES
Â
So Happy Birthday, FOTUS.
 Hope you liked your tanks, your tantrum, and your totally-not-staged standing ovation.
 We got you something too.
Itâs called No Kings.
 Itâs called resistance.
 Itâs called millions of Americans showing up without needing to be bribed with funnel cake and flags.
Because you can buy a parade.
 You can even script a salute.
But you canât fake a nationâs heartbeat.
And yesterday?
You didnât just miss the pulse.
You flatlined.
