Even trump's biggest fans do not want a trump speech instead of music at this "festival." I really hope that trump gives one of his hour plus speeches.
Trump's biggest fans reject his 'lame and boring' new proposal: 'This is so egotistical'

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."

(844 posts)But now the sheen of fake gold spray paint has worn away as he is deconstructing in full view of the world while causing death, destruction and havoc everywhere as he stupidly plods ahead.
I expect him to increasingly lash out as he falls out of favor with part of his base.

He is worth listening to.
His words are Bigly Important.
Little does he know . . . we have heard it all before, and assigned his words to the Dustbin of History.
Even his followers are starting to catch on.
I bet he'd ramble on about the war with Iran, how he is in a position of dominance and calling the shots, etc.
Probably ramble on about his planned wars with Cuba, Outer Mongolia, Iceland, Narnia, too.

Figures.
This is how shallow they are.
And callous.

That said, pig should take their advice and unleash MAGA's best up-and-coming people on the stage. Show 'murika exactly what sort of trash still worships him.

(22,848 posts)So he's calling real musicians washed up and wanting to replace them with never will be's? Typical Puke. He has no idea how stupid he really is.
In fact, I'm not feeling this whole 4th of July thing, 250 years or not. There isn't much to celebrate in this broken country.

A) SERIOUSLY running out of time,
or
B) hes simply starting to lose his mind - about pretty much everything.
Take your pick, I guess
unless another possibility presents itself.
