Washington Post: “President Donald Trump said Monday he would be closely involved in a marquee celebration of the country’s 250th anniversary, casting the July Fourth event on the National Mall as one of his political rallies.”

Said Trump: “We are going to host the most spectacular TRUMP RALLY of them all, a ‘TRIBUTE TO AMERICA’… There will be incredible Flyovers and Airshows featuring our Top Military Pilots and Equipment, and I will deliver keynote remarks that you will not want to miss.”

I consider it already ruined. Maybe someone with more energy and imagination than I can come up with something good.

The goals the founders set forth for the nation have never been farther out of reach now tsf has been voted in twice, there are still people, backing the magats and Project 2025. Until tsf is no longer President & in a prison cell, and the magats and project 2025, are just a dark chapter in our history books, I will personally feel that celebrating is hypocritical, and dishonorable to the memories of our founders. This nation under tsf is no longer the one they birthed.
