Critics called the performative stunt a misuse of tax dollars, with many expressing anger that military equipment, fuel, and personnel were used for a private, theatrical display. The stunt has also raised concerns about the military appearing partisan, particularly as it occurred on the same day as anti-Trump ‘No Kings’ protests.<\/p>\n
