| President Trump proposes making the Fourth of July all about him because of course. |
On July 4, have a nice, big parade, with bands, floats and cheering crowds. Throw in a great afternoon of picnicking and partying, then top it all off with a big fireworks display.
Nobody thought of this great idea until our fearless leader, President Donald Trump announced the idea today.
Well, OK, there have been juuuusst vaguely similiar events on the Fourth of July for many years.
Such as what happens on July 4 every year: A nice, big parade, with bands, floats and cheering crowds. Throw in a great afternoon of picknicking and partying, then top it all off with a big fireworks display.
But Trump announced the idea today. So it's new! And his idea has an added bonus: "An address, by your favorite president, me!"
Of course, if Trump isn't your favorite president, I guess you're not invited.
Never mind that Washington DC has been home to a Fourth of July celebration for decades at least. Now, it's going to be all about Trump. Because everything has to be all about Trump. I mean this blog post is all about Trump. See?
Trump's Fourth of July idea seems to have garnered a few skeptical responses on Twitter and elsewhere.
Most of the comments are along the lines of, you idiot, we do that kind of thing every year.
U.S. Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-CA wrote on Twitter:
"If this goes well, I think we should follow it with a big party in Times Square the night before New Year's Day."
Wow! All these great ideas emerging! What will they think of next?
