Really, he's not batsh*t certified f*cking insane: Here's Trump's solution for the artists bailing on CircleJerk 250



I understand Artists are getting “the yips” having to do with their performance on Wednesday, so I am thinking about bringing the Number One Attraction anywhere in the World, the man who gets much larger audiences than Elvis in his prime, and he does so without a guitar, the man who loves our Country more than anyone else, and the man who some say is the Greatest President in History (THE GOAT!), DONALD J. TRUMP, to take the place of these highly paid, Third Rate “Artists,” and give a major speech, rallying the Country forward like I have done ever since being President! Two years ago, the United States was DEAD. Now we have the “HOTTEST” Country anywhere in the World. I don’t want so-called “Artists” that get paid far too much money, who aren’t happy. I only want to be surrounded by Happy People, Smart People, Successful People, and People that know how to WIN. So, by copy of this TRUTH, I am ordering my Representatives to look at the feasibility of doing an AMERICA IS BACK Rally on Wednesday, Washington, D.C., same time, same location. Only Great Patriots invited — It will be a Wild and Beautiful Celebration of America! President DONALD J. TRUMP

In Star Trek IV the ship had to travel back in time to get a whale and they needed to make a special tank to hold it. A similar situation exists now. In order to get enough bullet proof glass or transparent aluminum an official US UFO will have to do the time warp so that the stable genius will be well protected. They've got it all figured out.

They needed the large plexiglass panels to make the tank for the whales on the ship. They didn't have any money. But they have knowledge of advanced materials like transparent aluminum, which would be worth a great deal of money to that man and his company. So in exchange for the plexiglass for the whale tank, they provide him with the formula for transparent aluminum.

So take that, you haters! And thank you for your attention to this matter.

Trump admin panics in fair talent search as artists bail: ‘We can’t just have Kid Rock’

Raw Story (@rawstory.com) 2026-05-30T16:30:16Z

https://www.rawstory.com/freedom-250-2676976282

The “Great American State Fair” – a multi-day festival organized by the President Donald Trump-linked group Freedom 250 – has seen a mass exodus of performers bail on the event after they learned of its ties to the president, and the Trump administration is scrambling to find acts to replace them, insiders told Zeteo in its report Saturday.

“We can’t just have Kid Rock every day [of the state fair],” a Trump appointee told Zeteo, speaking on the condition of anonymity. “It’s a little f------ embarrassing when you can’t hold on to Bret Michaels… But we’re confident we’ll get a good line-up.”

Since announcing the lineup for the patriotic event designed to celebrate the United States’ 250th anniversary, “nearly all” performers had pulled out of the event. An entertainment industry insider, also speaking on the condition of anonymity, told Zeteo that when reaching out to artists for the event, Freedom 250 “seemed almost purposefully vague at times, with Donald Trump’s name not being used once.”....

The Trump administration’s search for replacement acts may prove difficult, however, based on the feedback from one “well-connected Hollywood agent” who spoke with Zeteo on the condition of anonymity.

Why does it sound like she is holding her nose when she 'sings'.

Holding your nose while singing can affect the quality of your voice. It can lead to a nasal tone, which is often described as a bright or obnoxious quality. This occurs when the sound is primarily resonated within the nasal cavity rather than the chest, throat, and mouth. To avoid this, singers should practice proper breath support, master correct mouth position, focus on facial resonance, and avoid excessive jaw tension. These techniques help ensure that the sound is produced in the mouth and throat, resulting in a more natural and pleasing tone.

The artists have dropped out of their previously announced appearance at the Great American State Fair. The schedule was as folows:

Martina McBride | June 25
C+C Music Factory | June 26
Vanilla Ice | June 26
Milli Vanilli | June 26
Young MC | June 26
The Commodores | June 27
Morris Day and The Time | June 27
Flo Rida | July 2
Bret Michaels | July 3

None of the performers were even scheduled to perform on any Wednesday. The man needs to be locked up.

Of course he knows he can call Kid Rock, Nugent, Lee Greenwood, Jason Aldean, who would ALL SAY "I'll be right there, SIR."

He wants "tuna."

That's the word the Yakuza uses in Japan to describe "new female talent" in the porn industry.

He KNOWS a marquee with proven sycophants would simply result in ridicule.

He wants to be able to point to that first cut of artists and say "SEE? THEY love me," and with the exception of Vanilla Ice, that's not true.

His automatic reference to Elvis Presley is pretty anachronistic. Plenty of other music stars have packed larger venues more consistently than Presley did in the half-century since Presley died.

Trump might as well have compared himself to Al Jolson or Bing Crosby.

Trump’s advisers worked quickly to organize a rally, set for June 24, after several performers slated for the concert series to be held this summer on the National Mall dropped out.

🧵 NEW WaPo: Trump to headline at Freedom 250 Great American State Fair after music acts cancel.

Freedom 250 spokesperson said yesterday that Trump's Freedom 250 is 'inherently nonpolitical.'

So Trump will perform at his 'inherently nonpolitical' Freedom 250 event.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2026/05/30/trump-headline-great-american-state-fair-after-music-acts-cancel

President Donald Trump will headline an opening ceremony for the Great American State Fair on the National Mall next month after many of the musical performers slated for the event canceled, citing the event’s associations with him.

The Great American State Fair — organized by Freedom 250, a Trump-aligned entity he created by executive order to plan semiquincentennial events — this week announced a lineup of performers. More than half canceled shortly thereafter, including Martina McBride and Bret Michaels, claiming they had not known about the organizing group’s connections to the president.

After Trump said on his Truth Social platform Saturday that he understood “Artists are getting ‘the yips’” about performing and suggested headlining the event himself, Danielle Alvarez, an adviser to Freedom 250, confirmed to The Washington Post that Trump will now kick off an opening event for the fair.

“As the visionary behind the Great American State Fair, we are excited to announce that President Trump will personally kick off this historic celebration on Wednesday, June 24 in an opening ceremony celebrating America’s 250th birthday,” Alvarez said in a statement first shared with The Post. She called the multiday event “a World’s Fair celebrating the people, traditions, innovations, and spirit that make America the greatest nation on Earth.”.....

Prior to Freedom 250 confirming the newly planned speech, Trump in his Truth Social post wrote that he was “thinking about bringing the Number One Attraction anywhere in the World, the man who gets much larger audiences than Elvis in his prime, and he does so without a guitar, the man who loves our Country more than anyone else, and the man who some say is the Greatest President in History (THE GOAT!), DONALD J. TRUMP, to take the place of these highly paid, Third Rate ‘Artists,’ and give a major speech, rallying the Country forward like I have done ever since being President!”

Trump's biggest fans reject his 'lame and boring' new proposal: 'This is so egotistical'

Raw Story (@rawstory.com) 2026-05-30T23:30:12Z

https://www.rawstory.com/trump-2676976777/

Some of Donald Trump's most reliable supporters are pushing back after the White House announced the president would deliver a speech as the replacement for artists who pulled out of the America 250 celebration, with critics on the right calling the move self-aggrandizing and tone-deaf.

The White House promoted the event as an "AMERICA IS BACK Rally!" but prominent conservative voices were not impressed.

Matt Walsh, the right-wing commentator and one of Trump's most prominent media allies, called the decision an unforced error. "Replacing a concert with a speech is lame and boring," Walsh wrote on X. "Just go out and get real musicians to play. Don't cancel the concert just because a bunch of washed up old has-beens canceled. There are hundreds of artists out there who might not be famous but would absolutely leap at the chance to play on a stage like this."

Jenna Ellis, the former Trump campaign lawyer who was among those charged in the Georgia election interference case, was more direct. "America 250 is not about Trump," she wrote. "This is so egotistical."

Conservative commentator Jackie Chea made a similar point, suggesting Trump "shouldn't make the concert into a rally" and instead should "channel his Show Biz days and let new artists compete with patriotic songs."

If Great Patriots are Americans who truly understand and strive to carry forward the highest ideals in our Declaration of Independence and Constitution, Donald Trump would not be allowed anywhere near the podium.
