Man, he sure made this more complicated, though. Big crowd at the Capitol end of the Mall for the traditional celebration. His stinky mess at the other end of the Mall--------------and he had the fireworks MOVED over there!!!


Metro will be an absolute mess. The Proud Boys are showing up. Protesters wearing John McCain T-shirts.

Truly DISGUSTING chaos.

it seems stupid to risk it.) Maybe they helicopter them in?

And yes, Trump is probably hoping with all his dark thoughts for a riot, especially if he can racially frame it though his white nationalist lens.

I'll be in my old hometown at a park on Long Island Sound going to the annual fireman's carnival and watching the fireworks.
