Oh, he has an answer to those who would have the gall to imply this he would make this event be about him:

"I understand Artists are getting 'the yips' having to do with their performance on Wednesday, so I am thinking about bringing the Number One Attraction anywhere in the World, the man who gets much larger audiences than Elvis in his prime, and he does so without a guitar, the man who loves our Country more than anyone else, and the man who some say is the Greatest President in History (THE GOAT!), DONALD J TRUMP, to take the place of these highly paid, Third Rate 'Artists,' and give a major speech, rallying the Country forward like I have done ever since being President!" Trump wrote.

But will it be "wild"?

Where is Bob Ritchie? Ted Nugent? Mike Love? Jason Aldean? Kanye West? Nicki Minaj? The keyboard player from Journey?

Trump now calling for a MAGA rally instead

but he says for some reason this Wednesday in DC, when the original program was the end of June leading up to 4th of July.

They were told it was going to be a non-partisan event. But it has turned out to be a very partisan and divisive event.


What they don't tell you is the reason it's so partisan and divisive is because of liberals making it that way!


It could and should be just about celebrating America. But liberals can't do anything normal. Literal freaks.

---

Being proud of your country and celebrating it is now partisan and divisive. What a time to be alive.

---

Celebrating America is what they signed up for.

Trump turning it into a campaign rally is why they are leaving.

---

Now wait a minute. There is no way that our president, who put his name on the Kennedy center, and the institute for peace, and his face on national park passes, passports, and a new $250 bill, would ever think about making this about himself.

And to prove it he's now thinking of canceling the concerts all together and replacing them with Trump rallies.

Don't forget the FIFA peace prize (1st annual btw)!!! Because he didn't win the Nobel peace prize… he definitely doesn't care about the Nobel peace prize

Interesting:

America250 was originally going to be ran by NGOs with an explicit, left-leaning agenda to promote global, multilateral “democracy,” as demonstrated by @SKDoubleDub33 . Then Trump rooted out most of that nonsense. I suspect what we’re seeing is a revenge tour by the original NGOs… https://t.co/2WgOA2upgM

The spokesperson for the group said that Trump was the visionary of this event. He also appointed the CEO of it.

Quote:

"As the visionary behind the Great American State Fair, we are excited to announce that President Trump will personally kick off this historic celebration on Wednesday, June 24 in an opening ceremony celebrating America's 250th birthday," spokeswoman Danielle Alvarez said.

'MURICA!!

To give us a littler patriotic boost this morning, here is an older but gooder song from Daryl Worley to remind us not to forget that we must stand strong and be strong to protect America, from enemies both foreign AND domestic.

I know many were impacted directly, indirectly and many also served in the military actions after 09/11. We made many missteps and errors in executing those actions and the effects of that are not so much that we have forgotten, but maybe we "misremember" why we entered into those actions.

If prior administrations had taken the path Trump has taken in regards to threats to America, than 25 years ago we may have been carpet bombing mountains in Afghanistan and kicking in doors of flight schools and apartments here in the US, and reworking airport security.

But enjoy the song and remember why we have to send folks to fight. I am admitted if a bit ashamedly selfish in that I never served (and never considered it), but I do appreciate the ones who do and the ones who support those who do.

God Bless America.
