President Donald Trump announced that he will host a rally on the National Mall on July 4th, as part of America’s 250th anniversary celebration. The event, which Trump described as a ‘TRIBUTE TO AMERICA,’ will feature performances from military bands, orchestras, and ceremonial units.
Details of the Event
The rally will take place at the Lincoln Memorial and Washington Monument, starting at 7 P.M. EST. Trump stated that the event will honor the country’s people, spirit, strength, resolve, and triumphs. The president also mentioned that the backdrop for the rally will be the Lincoln Memorial and Reflecting Pool, which he recently renovated.
The main July Fourth event on the National Mall, called the ‘Salute to America,’ is meant to feature a parade, military demonstrations, and other activities, ending with a fireworks display over the monuments. Trump’s announcement has drawn attention, as events marking the signing of the Declaration of Independence are typically meant to be nonpartisan and focused on the country as a whole.
