Trump calls D.C.'s July 4th 250th celebration a 'Trump rally'
President Donald Trump announced he will stage Washington, D.C.'s July 4 semiquincentennial celebration as a campaign-style "Trump Rally" on the National Mall, centered at the Lincoln Memorial. The administration moved the traditional Capitol July 4 ceremony to July 3 and plans for July 4 include about 300 military musicians, airshows, and an expanded fireworks display. That decision places a partisan presidential event at the heart of America's 250th birthday and effectively turns federal pageantry and resources into a platform for the president's re-election messaging.
Trump just announced that the July 4 event on the National Mall celebrating America 250 will now be turned into a "TRUMP RALLY."
I'm old enough to remember how excited people were for the Bicentennial. This is just so sad in comparison.
I hate him so much
Of course he’s going to ruin what should be a joyful historical event; and lazy corporate media will play along.
You spelled shit show wrong.
Thus taking away a traditional DC area family event- picnic and fireworks and music on the National Mall. No one will take their kids to a Proud Boys “wild” event. #ETTD
We can only keep thinking good thoughts
Can't wait to see the A-list entertainment lineup.
This and *gestures everywhere* all of this is why I can’t get excited about America’s 250th.
That’s because to this absolute unit of a dipshit, there is no “America.” He is such a megalomaniac narcissistic asshole that he believes HE is America — just like all the GOP members act like they are GUN, or they are PATRIOT. Notice I didn’t invoke a name & you know who I’m referring to.
I suppose we'll see the same people from the UFC cage fight. I can't imagine any decent American attending a "Trump Rally" on America's birthday. I also can't imagine any reputable entertainer performing for this vermin. DC is NOT the place to be on 7/4.
It’s official. we are living under a facist regime
Great job, Republican voters. And great job, those who sat the election out because you don't do politics.
Naturally. Anything else isn't a good use of the villain's time. We didn't reject the cagefight effectively so he knows he won't hear too much complaining.
Translation: No talented entertainers want to be associated with our nazi regime.
A rally for what? He's already president.
Then, we need a 11m people march onto the national mall telling him no.
Fuck that narcissistic motherfucker and his followers.
I.e. a Dear Leader worship event.
I hope there are circus animals 🙏🏻
No surprise here. This pos’ 2 administrations has always been about him. The sooner we impeach and run his behind to rot in jail the better.
It’s why PBS moved A Capitol Fourth to July 3rd and they are having their fireworks display at Mount Vernon.
He knows he's losing, gotta gather his MAGAts together and remind them how much they hate "others."
Seems he's not tired of the boos.
It’s not about HIM. #NPD
Fuck this MF47 he is not human any more! Fucking shit!
It was never about the country
How many billions is he stealing for these events?
Me, me, me, me, me and a lot more ME‼️
Isn’t that what they all are ? For Pro- PEDO-Felony Traitor uniting ? Narcissistic sociopathic psychopaths Convention. Perfect time to arrest all of the criminals 🤷🏻♀️🙄
The president's announcement that the July 4th event in DC celebrating the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence will be a "TRUMP RALLY" completes the MAGA takeover of the country's birthday that started last year. www.motherjones.com/politics/202....
A Trump Rally paid for with our tax dollars! How is this legal? (I know, I know - laws are meaningless to this bunch). I wonder if it can be stopped thru the courts?
This is not at all surprising, but it's worth noting that Freedom 250 flacks are out there saying the group, which is organizing the July 4 event, is nonpartisan. Making the official July 4 event in Washington into a TRUMP rally doesn't seem nonpartisan.
all of this has nothing to do with America. MAGA celebrates Trump, Americans celebrate America.
Condolences to all those forced to attend.
North Korea will be so proud
July 4th is cancelled this year. Just another day as Convicted Felon Donald Trump makes it about himself. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #Pinks #TrumpIsACriminal www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
FFS he will do anything to make it about him 🙄
OR hear me out, what if we acutally take Independence Day for what it is this year and make it happen.
🤮I pray this is his last 4th.
It was cancelled for me the moment he was reelected. I will celebrate this country via protest until he is gone.
Trump declares D.C.'s July 4th celebration as a "TRUMP RALLY"
Then he can fucking pay for it
Fourth of July is cancelled, folks.
And this is why people are just tuning out any 250th celebration. It’s all been tainted by a fat, disgusting rapist & felon.
Best not be using taxpayer money then!
