It does seem like an awful lot of money to put on a military parade just to celebrate the birthday of the Head of State.
And I gather there's going to be one in Washington today too ...

How long until someone tells DJT that there has never been a Pope from the USA?
How long until "Many people are saying that the next guy should be American. That would be beautiful. He would be the best Pope in the history of Popery. We should do that. We'll see how that works out."?

The same young lady with goth makeup, a black Victorian-style dress, and dark hair: the classic 'goth look'. The original image is labeled "goth", while another one has been composited on with a high-vis yellow work vest like those used on construction sites, and below it it says "Visigoth".
Stolen from the Internet.
'Safety first' when sacking Rome.
