July 4th is the one day of the year we should all be united to celebrate our country.

[kentuck]

Donald Trump has found a way to divide people over July the Fourth!

It is not the day for us to celebrate our military - it is a day for us to celebrate our freedoms. Otherwise, the freedoms may not last much longer.

It is the work of a tyrant to attempt to put tanks in the city of Washington, DC.

Instead, we should be drinking beer and eating hotdogs. We should be talking to our neighbors over the fence. We should be flying our flags. We should be having fun with our families. We should be enjoying our national parks. We should appreciate the freedoms we have.

But, Trump wants to blame the Democrats for not wanting the tanks in our Capitol. They are un-American, he says. He seeks to divide.

Beware.

1. He's going to make the D.C. celebration

into another one of his nauseating rallies, you watch! Because it's always all about him. Except this time he gets tanks just like a real banana republic leader. I wouldn't be surprised to see him come out wearing a sash full of medals and gold epaulets and wearing mirrored sunglasses.

4. Trump will be wearing his ill-fitting blue suit and too long red tie.

The mirrored sunglasses, perhaps. I sure as hell will not be watching this farce

8. I recommend a little something from our Idi Amin Collection...

[gratuitous]

9. Suggest Trump change his name to Needy Amin

I foresee Trump turning all those challenge coins into medallions he can wear on a uniform. Lord knows there's a lot of real estate to cover.

3. We are so much more divided and so much more GONE than we realize

we are NEVER going back to normal, half the country now feels their side can and should lie , rape, steal and kill

and if our side gets a parking ticket, we should be run out of the country

nope, we are permanently broken and we may recover in some ways but never fully and all because


she gave a speech, one speech FUCK

[old guy]

12. I wish I could disagree, but I cannot.

[Va Lefty]

5. . You know who else had military parades and concentration camps?

[sop]

6. Everything Trump touches turns to shit, even the 4th of July

As usual, Trump wants to turn something universally popular and benign into a self-serving display of rightwing jingoism.

[ehrnst]

7. I'm sure that someone will find a way to blame House Democrats for failing' no matter what happens.

[Whiskeytide]

10. It is intentional.

He is a dick.

[Claritie Pixie]

11. I am choosing to ignore him and carry on as usual.

Good friends, celebration and fireworks just like every year.

On that day I won't be thinking of him at all.
