Trump loses it as US’s 250th Anniversary plans collapse
Trump — As we find ourselves in the 250th anniversary of America’s founding, the country is more American than ever. This isn’t a compliment, of course, but it is a way of introducing the chaos we’re seeing around the anniversary planning — chaos even right-wingers are calling out:
I’m actually pretty pissed at how badly they’ve bungled America 250. First they tried to invite Milli Vanilli and a bunch of other absurdly washed up geriatric one hit wonders. Then when that didn’t work they decided to convert the event into a Trump rally where Trump will talk… https://t.co/lYo2jUWOLy

Happy birthday
America has produced some of the biggest musical acts of all time. Given this, you’d think it would be easy to book some big hitters for the 250th Anniversary. Instead, we got the likes of Milli Vanilli — a German pop outfit which was famous for not singing their own songs (one of whom is now deceased, RIP):
JUST ANNOUNCED: The Great American State Fair lineup is here, featuring a packed roster of hits including Martina McBride, Young MC, C+C Music Factory, Vanilla Ice, Milli Vanilli, The Commodores, Morris Day & The Time, Flo Rida, Bret Michaels, and many more. pic.twitter.com/VI7OK4kDGI

As if this wasn’t embarassing enough, several acts have now pulled out, including the Commodores, Morris Day and the Time, and the aforementioned Milli Vanilli. Poison singer Bret Michaels said the following:
Unfortunately, what was presented to us as a celebration of our country has evolved into something much more divisive than what I agreed to be a part of
He added:
Concerns have also been raised regarding the safety of my fans, band, crew, family and myself, including threats that are completely unfounded and unforgivable. Because of that, I have made the difficult decision to step away from this performance
To be fair, the US is a little busy losing Israel’s wars right now, so they can’t be expected to defend the nation’s second-tier rockers.
In the post at the top, Donald Trump described the acts pulling out as having “the yips”. He also vowed to replace them himself, claiming he has more appeal than Elvis. And the crashout didn’t stop there:
Holy shit, Trump is really crashing out. His latest unhinged screed: “We should have a giant MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN RALLY, for 250, instead of having overpriced singers, who nobody wants to hear, whose music is boring, and yet who do nothing but complain. Cancel it, just like I… pic.twitter.com/wmQ0FdFTAX

Trump also took time to criticise his opponents on the right:

Between all this, Trump bragged about passing one of the mental exams they only administer to folks who are showing signs of cognitive decline:

Oh, and we also learned about the ‘RUMP’ watch:
Donald Trump has scammed his supporters again.

Trump — Hip hip hooray
The music acts aren’t the only thing booked for America 250; there’s also the planned UFC match on the White House lawn:

As neoliberal ghoul Hillary Clinton highlighted:
This is what Trump's done to the people's house:
A third of it is rubble.
Another third is a cage match.
What a metaphor. pic.twitter.com/0JKCj5prXF

Some Yanks are pretending this doesn’t represent them, but this is the America the rest of the world knows. It’s a violent, destructive force that turns everything it touches into rubble and rancour. So in that sense, the arrangements for the 250th Anniversary are actually very fitting.
Well done, President Paedophile (allegedly).

A better alternative would be A Native American Day Concert which would attract the most talented artists who also possess humanity.
The colonisers wiped out 100m Native Americans. 💦
If you listen to orange and some other Americans it is as though they have little history were in fact it has a longer history with the native Americans, the nation that ignores it’s heritage and will not celebrate it’s heritage is a broken nation being led by a man who seems hell bent on starting wars across the planet which he promised would not happen. The land of the free, is it really free under orange.
If it worked for President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho, it can work for the ‘goat’! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ig446isvXlI 20/35 years on, truth (social) is definitely stranger than fiction – Terminal City, here we are! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RaAVnt0X2wQ
I tend to call it strewth social.
I’ve always said Trump was the most American president ever. A loud, brash braggart, rich on borrowed money, a bully with no regard for others beyond what he get them to do for him, Dunning-Kruger confident, a cheat – but great at self-promotion and the performance of wealth, at somehow getting what he wants, and getting away with it.
