The Fourth of July in the nation's capitol has been a non-partisan celebration of our nation's birth for decades. Vile crook Richard Nixon tried to appropriate it during his first term, and now malignant narcissist and would-be dictator Donald "It's About Meeeee" Trump has decided that the celebration should center around him. He's obsessed with military parades and celebrations of him ever since he was feted by the corrupt Saudi regime in his first year in office, and when he witnessed France's Bastille Day parade in Paris. Sane heads at the Pentagon were able to deflect his megalomaniacal request for a military parade down Pennsylvania Avenue for two years, but this year under more compliant management, we'll see a flyover of military jets and some military bands and units parading for Mango Mussolini. It's a Trump rally disguised as a Fourth of July celebration.
The celebration of Trump will require the Lincoln Memorial to be fenced off for dignitaries, friends and family, who will receive special access tickets from the White (Supremacist) House. Trump plans to address his faithful cult near the spot where the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King delivered his iconic "I Have A Dream" speech in 1963; talk about desecration. It looks like all the kinks have not been worked out:
"On Friday morning, bleachers had been set up on the plaza below the Lincoln Memorial, and workers were erecting other structures. Seats faced away from the memorial and toward the Washington Monument, making it unclear where exactly Trump plans to stand while giving his speech."The local forecast is for scattered showers and thunderstorms on the Fourth in DC. Let's pray for rain.
