Stephen Colbert Takes Aim at Trump’s Birthday Plans

Late night host Stephen Colbert took aim at President Trump’s upcoming birthday celebration, mocking the president’s decision to throw a massive military parade.

Colbert, known for his sharp political commentary, pointed out that Trump’s birthday, June 14th, will be marked by a grand display of military might. The parade is expected to feature 6,600 soldiers, 150 vehicles, and 50 helicopters, a spectacle that Colbert deemed more fitting for a dictator than a US president.

This comes just as Trump returns from a Middle East trip, further fueling Colbert’s critique that Trump might be bringing back a taste of authoritarianism to the United States.
