Trump’s $45M Army Parade Overshadowed, Protesters Outnumber Attendees | “No Kings” Chants Echo in US [Video]

Trump’s $45M Army Parade Overshadowed, Protesters Outnumber Attendees | “No Kings” Chants Echo in US

President Trump’s highly anticipated 250th Army anniversary parade in Washington D.C. was meant to be a patriotic spectacle—but it fell flat. Despite tanks, military flyovers, and millions spent, the streets were shockingly under-attended. Meanwhile, tens of thousands of anti-Trump protesters flooded cities across the U.S., chanting “No Kings” and calling for his ouster. The contrast was jarring: as Trump delivered a brief 8-minute speech calling the U.S. “the hottest country,” political violence rocked Minnesota and national tensions surged. Is this a celebration—or a country in crisis? #TrumpParade #NoKingsProtest #Army250 #PoliticalViolence #MinnesotaShooting #AntiTrumpProtest #WashingtonDC #MilitaryParade #TrumpNews #USPolitics Also Read Free IPL 2025 Final Live Screening for Public in Bengaluru: Check RCB vs PBKS Match Venues, Contact Details :: https://www.oneindia.com/bengaluru/free-ipl-2025-final-live-screening-for-public-in-bengaluru-check-rcb-vs-pbks-match-venues-contact-4171035.html?ref=DMDesc RCB Vs PBKS IPL 2025 Final Live Streaming: First-Time Champions Guaranteed, Here's How to Watch It Free :: https://www.oneindia.com/sports/cricket/rcb-vs-pbks-ipl-2025-final-live-streaming-first-time-champions-guaranteed-heres-how-to-watch-free-4170843.html?ref=DMDesc Sajindas Devidas Reveals How AI-Driven Nudges Are Quietly Redefining User Behavior :: https://www.oneindia.com/in-the-news/sajindas-devidas-reveals-how-ai-driven-nudges-are-quietly-redefining-user-behavior-4166947.html?ref=DMDesc
