Washington, D.C., is preparing for tomorrow’s military parade on Saturday, celebrating the 250th birthday of the U.S. Army, by erecting over 18 miles of “anti-scale fencing,” along with the deployment of numerous drones.
Trump will also be turning 80-years-old.
Army officials are reportedly expecting around 200,000 attendees, although authorities are preparing for “hundreds of thousands” — just to be safe.
