America is approaching a significant milestone in its relatively brief history. On July 4th it will be celebrating the 250th anniversary of its independence. And much of the nation is gearing up for a celebration that will pay tribute to the nation’s past and look forward to it’s future.

It’s too bad that the current occupant of the White House, Donald Trump, isn’t planning to be a part of all of that. Instead, he is planning a celebration that recognizes only His MAGA-sty with a series of events that virtually ignores what truly makes America great in favor of presenting a feast of egomaniacal extravaganzas that exalt himself and his delusional, perceived superiority. For instance…

On Wednesday night Trump christened his “Freedom 250” affair with a speech on the National Mall. And true to form, he spent most of his time kissing his own asinine posterior. However, the con man in him made sure to promote his next appearance with a rather pathetic plea to his gullible cult followers…
“On July 4, we will have the greatest show of all on the National Mall. Your favorite president will be speaking. So please show up. Because if we have two empty seats, you know what’s gonna happen? The fake news is gonna say, ‘He didn’t fill out the arena.'”
Trump to his dismally small crowd in DC last night: "On July 4, we will have the greatest show of all on the National Mall. Your president will be speaking, so please show up. Because if we have 2 empty seats, you know what's gonna happen. The fake news is gonna say, 'He didn't fill out the arena.'"
Naturally Trump employs the rhetoric of a circus barker, with his “greatest show” lingo. And remember, this is the Trump rally that nearly every performer originally announced canceled. And now the “entertainment” consists only of Lee Greenwood, a couple of military marching bands, and Trump. But it’s surprising that he announced that “your favorite president” will be there. So President Obama will be speaking?
More telling is that Trump had to resort to begging his disciples to show up for the event. And his reasoning was not because they should honor the country and celebrate its independence. Nope. Trump’s reason for pleading with them to attend was to prevent him from looking like the pathetic loser that he is. That’s the obligation of cult minions. Always fluff Dear Leader’s ego.
On Thursday morning Trump boasted about Wednesday night’s speech in a comment that he posted to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. He babbled about the “incredible” crowd, lying that it was “At least 45,000 people…with a huge Television and online audience.” Other more credible estimates placed the audience at 5,000-6,000. And he couldn’t possibly know the TV viewership because those numbers haven’t been released yet. When they are released they are unlikely to be particularly impressive because even Fox News only aired about 15 minutes of it.
Trump also claimed that “Everybody stayed right until the end of my Speech.” Which is another lie. And it was contradicted by videos of people leaving while he was still speaking.
Crowds flock towards the exit in the middle of Trump's speech.
