Seems generally agreed across news sources that
the parade was fairly popular. Sometimes people
like to SEE stuff like this, always did.
Of course, if asked, Dems will all say it sucked
even if they watched the entire thing :-)

Here's one from the ultra far left, Trump hating Washington Post.
"I was worried about Trump’s Army parade — until I saw it
For the army, this was mission accomplished."
<https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2025/06/15/military-parade-
worth-watching-patriotism/>
"I arrived for the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary parade in Washington
on a drizzly Saturday afternoon with considerable consternation and
concern.
I knew that President Donald Trump had been agitating for such a
spectacle since 2017, but that his first secretary of defense, Jim
Mattis, had refused, because he viewed this as something that occurred
in dictatorships such as Russia and North Korea. In private, Mattis
reportedly said he would rather “swallow acid” than have troops
parading through the capital.
Make sense of the latest news and debates with our daily newsletter
Now, Trump has a far more accommodating, and far less qualified,
secretary of defense in Pete Hegseth, thereby opening the door to the
politicization of the U.S. armed forces. That danger has been on
display in the past week, with Trump deploying the National Guard and
U.S. Marines to Los Angeles over the protests of local leaders and
delivering a campaign-style speech at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, that
produced disturbing video clips of 82nd Airborne troops cheering while
he bashed Democrats and the media.
My worry was that Trump would turn the Army parade into just another
political pageant. Those concerns only grew when I saw how many of the
spectators were wearing MAGA hats or shirts.
Follow Trump’s second term
Follow
But my apprehension began to melt away as soon as the music started to
play and the soldiers began to march. Dear reader, I hope you do not
think I am going soft on Trump if I tell you that I thoroughly enjoyed
the entire parade.
As a military history nerd, I loved to see the soldiers marching by in
period uniforms from the American Revolution, the Civil War, World War
I, World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War and the Gulf War. I
thrilled to the flybys from historic aircraft — including a C-47
transport, P-51 fighter aircraft and a Huey helicopter — and the
daring skydiving of the Army’s Golden Knights Parachute Team. I
thought it was cool to see some soldiers going by on horseback, while
others drove historic vehicles such as Jeeps and M4 Sherman tanks.
Near the end, the Army even showcased its weapons of the future with a
drone flyby and a walk-by from drones resembling dogs.
One of the more controversial aspects of the parade was the
participation of 70-ton M1 Abrams tank, which had the potential to
tear up city streets and to recall unpleasant images from other
countries of what happens when tanks enter the capital. (“Thanks but
no tanks,” read a protest sign I glimpsed on my way in.) But I enjoyed
seeing the smoke-belching monsters rattle down the street, and it was
hard to see anything threatening about it when the crew members were
smiling and waving at the spectators and, in some cases, making heart
gestures with their hands.
This was not a menacing, goose-stepping parade a la Moscow or
Pyongyang. It was America’s army on display, and I appreciated how
many of the GIs were women or ethnic minorities — a reminder of the
limits of Hegseth’s anti-DEI purges in a force that truly represents
the entire country.
I think it was a good thing for Americans to be reminded of the
glorious history of their army — a force for freedom that has defeated
some of the most monstrous evils of the past two centuries, including
the Confederacy, Imperial and Nazi Germany, Imperial Japan, and the
Soviet empire. Granted, the Army has also engaged in reprehensible
conduct over the centuries, from the American Indian Wars to Abu
Ghraib, but it makes sense on a day like this to celebrate, rather
than criticize, the soldiers who put their lives on the line to defend
us.
My enjoyment of the parade, admittedly, was heightened by the fact
that I was sitting at the corner of Constitution Avenue and 14th
Street, safely out of sight of the reviewing stand on the Ellipse
where Trump sat glowering as the troops marched past. I was greatly
relieved that Trump, in a rare amount of self-control, kept his
remarks short and focused on the Army — not, as is usually the case,
on glorifying himself or bashing his political opponents.
I even secretly enjoyed the post-parade ceremony where Trump led a
group of new soldiers in taking their oath of enlistment. I hope he
noted that they swore to “support and defend the Constitution,” not
the MAGA movement, and that while they vowed to obey the president’s
orders and those of “officers appointed over me,” there was an
important addendum: “according to regulations and the Uniform Code of
Military Justice.” (Those regulations prohibit “partisan political
activity.”)
Rolling Stone headlined its story about the day: “Trump’s military
birthday was a gross failure.” I think that’s right, but the flip side >> is that the Army’s military parade was an absolute success. In other
words, Trump did not hijack the event. For the Army, this was mission
accomplished. With night falling on Washington and the skies clearing
up, I’m sure that the generals left the festivities with as much
relief as I did"
They just can NEVER admit that Trump had a pretty good
idea there :-)
The fun bit seems to be their delusions that Trump and
the evil awful MAGAs were gonna roll the tanks up the
Capitol steps and declare a coup ..... that's stage
four TDS for sure !

Doug Landry, who plans large-scale events like this for a

parade was:
<https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1934052056878243848.html>
--bks
<snip>
"But the parade itself was quite boring, save for those few movements.
It was generally very quietso quiet you could clearly hear the creaks
and squeaks of the armored vehicleswith intermittent music that was constantly being lowered so that the parade narrator could announce
each battalion. Weak chants of USA, USA popped up every 10 minutes
or so. And the majority of the parade was just soldiers walking bynot
even marching in step with each otherin military garb from wars past. Children grew weary in the humidity, as did some adults. One man
wearing an Infowars.com shirt kept yelling bring out the tanks!! and complained that people got no energy out here. Another started
scrolling on TikTok. There were large cheers for West Point and some
confused murmurs for the Boston Dynamics robot dogs. "

Trump’s military parade roundly mocked for low attendance, languid marches
Commentators on the parade also noted how ‘low-energy’ some of the soldiers
taking part in the demonstration were. Christopher David, a prominent
former member of the US Army, described the display as sloppy, and
speculated about their allegiance to the Commander in Chief.
“I’ve marched in more military parades than I even care to remember. >> Probably watched dozens more as a spectator. And this is easily the worst
and sloppiest marching I’ve ever witnessed at a formal military parade. It
feels like a big “f*** you” to Trump from the soldiers.”
They were somewhere between a march an a stroll. They weren't even
staying in time with each other.
Stalin would have had them shot.

"But the parade itself was quite boring, save for those few movements.
It was generally very quietso quiet you could clearly hear the creaks
and squeaks of the armored vehicleswith intermittent music that was
constantly being lowered so that the parade narrator could announce
each battalion. Weak chants of USA, USA popped up every 10 minutes
or so. And the majority of the parade was just soldiers walking bynot
even marching in step with each otherin military garb from wars past.
Children grew weary in the humidity, as did some adults. One man
wearing an Infowars.com shirt kept yelling bring out the tanks!! and
complained that people got no energy out here. Another started
scrolling on TikTok. There were large cheers for West Point and some
confused murmurs for the Boston Dynamics robot dogs. "

These are VIP bleachers on the north side of constitution (closer to the WH

And they are EMPTY. We are talkin’ Trump 1.0 inauguration empty.
:-D

If they had:
More people than this
More heat than this
Severe weather
Or (god forbid) a violent incident
This bottleneck would have been a mass casualty event.

The parade reportedly cost $42 million and is going to be a huge

Recruitment budgets are measured in the billions of dollars.
So it will pay off in the future.

Nope.
Trump, tactfully, kind of kept himself a little
in the background - it was more a chance for the
Army to strut it's stuff and history.
We all OWE the Army ... things would be a LOT
more horrible otherwise.
However for a few hundred - how many get to
have the C&C re-swear them into service ?
The parade reportedly cost $42 million and is going to be a huge
recruitment tool.
Recruitment budgets are measured in the billions of dollars.
So it will pay off in the future.
Besides we need to honor our military without who we would not
have a country.
Interesting that the media sold this as only a birthday party for
Trump when it was really about the military.

It will.
US soldiers have kind of suffered in anonymity for
quite awhile. GOOD to let them strut their stuff
every so often.
