Shep Smith Suggests Trump Could Play With ‘Mini Replicas’ of Tanks in Lieu of Military Parade

Shepard Smith has a capital idea: Give President Donald Trump some toy tanks and missiles to play with instead of having a multi-million-dollar parade.

Smith spoke with Fox News White House Correspondent Jennifer Griffin about how the plans for a military parade have landed with a dud in the defense community, and they began discussing more frugal alternatives.

“He could go see the tanks at a military base if he wanted to,” Smith offered.

“And they do have parades on those bases,” Griffin responded. “We have video of the 82nd Airborne. They have annual events, there are parades, and there are shows of military hardware all across the country.”

That’s when Smith started getting in some digs at the president.

“Or they could give him replicas. Little mini replicas. I mean, he wants to see what he has,” he said, smirking. “I had some of those when I was a kid.”

“You can get the little plastic ones and lay them out on the table and say ‘here you go,'” he added.

“We can play Strategy and Risk,” Griffin offered as the two shared a laugh.

Shep might have a point. Let’s face it: The thought of Trump playing with little toy versions of heavy artillery and making explosion sounds in the Oval Office is not an entirely far-fetched image at this point.
