FFS...
Actually found something even more gaudy, tacky, and embarrassing than hosting a car dealership on WH grounds or forcing a military parade for a birthday...

Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.

Tacky
That's his whole brand
Just add it to the list of many other tacky things he’s already done
Actually shocked it's not monster truck or wrestling
I hate living in this stupid trashy country. Fuck the Fourth of July.
I think we can all get behind explosives as entertainment though
With the amount of damage it does to local ecosystems (like birds), nah. It also traumatizes many veterans with PTSD.
Ya know, I had a thought about this yesterday. The sound of fireworks isn't traumatic for me, but it's easier to tell people that as the reason I won't celebrate the 4th rather than telling them I'm deeply disgusted by our actions on both the global and domestic stage and I am ashamed to be an American, not proud. It's easy to say here on lemmy, but no amount of "being a hero" in the past will prevent the communities veterans tend to be part of from ostracizing you if you question the myth of American greatness.
Let's throw some garbage around for some morons to go: oooooh
Sounds very idiocracy.
If only. At least Camacho listened to people on some level other than bribes and sycophants.
He was a moron and extremist, but genuinely wanted to help the country
WHERE'S OUR NOT SURE
Here come the Idiocracy memes in 3, 2, 1...
Wow if this doesn’t wake people up, then I don’t know. Is everyone going to dress to repress for “respect “?
THIS is where you draw the line? JFC your country is fucked.
It's stupid and tacky so of course he would.
I am surprised he didnt want it for his birthday
Qué puto naco, dios mío... 🙄
