Trump floats replacing 250th anniversary concert with massive MAGA rally after artists pull out
I'm all for this.
I want to see Trump try to stand in front of lights and stage for an extended period of time. His dementia, incontinence and physical frailty will be exposed to all. Maybe a major stroke light will be on the cards as well.

there’s only one thing that could happen on july 4 that i think would perfectly capture the founders’ intent for independence from tyranny….it would be so poetic if it happened
The tree of liberty and what not
I lost all faith in the tree of liberty when it failed to finish the job with a famous Texas pissbaby
Which Texas pissbaby?
The one the tree fell on, but didn't get the job done.
Ahh there are just so many Texas pissbabies it's hard to be sure
I too have a vague concept in mind for liberating us from tyranny. It's truly glorious. Sic Semper Tyrannis
It really says something when someone is so hated that we all know what you're hinting at.
“Oh no, the launch pad for the fireworks finale was set up horizontally instead of vertically!”
Happy Birthday America! 🇺🇸🦅🧨🫡
I wish his dad had pulled out.
His dad was a huge piece of shit too. I wish Trump's grandfather had pulled out
That one was a Nazi
And a brothel owner
He already did...
Thered been a non partisan commission planning this for like a decade, trump fired them and put maga in charge.
People quit because of that, so now they're saying they're gonna do the thing theybalreadyndid that caused the problem.
They're handling this just like the Strait of Hormuz
They signed up these artists for the nation's birthday celebration, and were uninformed enough not to realize that it's a ruse to celebrate the president's birthday, and that this was political, and would forever tar them in association with the biggest piece of shit in the world (as measured by character.)
So good for them for pulling out. It's way better they signed up, then publicly pulled out. We should have every artist do that, except wait until the last minute, then be like, oh, I didn't know the president or party was involved, sorry. Leave them publicly humiliated without their entertainment.
Looking at you UFC.
Yeah Dana White has always been a huge piece of shit. Don't expect him to do anything. Now if the fighters were to drop out last minute, that would be interesting. But again, the majority are idiots who support this bad spray tan in a suit.
FYI there is a planned no kings protest scheduled for June 14th (Donny’s birthday) let’s make this pedos birthday a day to remember.
It's very sad that my girl shares a birthday with this clown
Make it extra special for your girl. It’s her day not Donny’s.
I plan on it my man
So does my dad
do they have demands, and threaten to continue the protest beyond a single day if not met?
They pulled out BECAUSE he was turning it into a MAGA rally. Bait and switch.
They signed up in the first place. Not sure what that says about them.
They signed up to perform at a non-partisan celebration of their country's 250th anniversary. They backed out once Trump started attaching his name to the event and making it clear he wanted it to be a big rally
At least that's the excuse they used once they started experiencing pushback.
Unless they're even dumber than they look, they'd have known from the start that Trump was involved. That inevitably means that it'd all be about Trump, since he's a megalomaniac toxic narcissist piece of shit with some cotton-candy hair stuck to it.
Well, most of them did.

While vanilla ice and kid rock have attached themselves to MAGA, several other artists were mislead on the 'America 250' banner for the actual 'Freedom 250' group. There is another fun rabbit hole of corruption and money laundering to look into if you have not yet been informed...
This administration is just one giant thieving grift.
Yep. I’m okay with this. I don’t want him celebrating the 250th. I want him telling his supporters they’re stupid for thinking gas prices are high.
I started reading the article comments. Boy was that a mistake.
You have to wonder how many are bots or Russian at this point.
Hopefully all of them
I shouldn't be surprised that fox has an American flag react emoji
I really liked the one where the guy blamed the mainstream media... Via a comment on the fox news site. These motherfuckers couldn't self reflect in a room full of mirrors.
It's sad that this is happening but at least it'll represent what america has become after a good quick 250 year run.
In a decade of truly insane rants, this was probably his most insane.
What in the absolute fuck is there left to say at this point?
Nah, this is not even top 10, it's a monday.
But does he have the man who brings him his scarves and his water, Mr. Charlie Hodge?
I had to read some of the comments on Fox News. Fucking disgusting MAGA shits and the artists that withdrew are 100% correct. 250 years and they're proud of WTF is occurring in the USA. The fucking Nazis celebrated, with pomp and propaganda, their 10th year in power on Jan 30, 1943. On that very fucking day, the German Army was getting mauled at the Battles of Stalingrad and Rzhev, because of the piss poor Nazi leadership.
Don’t forget that there is a certain percentage of the comments online that are bots.
There are indeed horrible people but don’t take online comments seriously. And for your mental health I suggest you don’t read anything fox news.
Please do this and have a shitload of flashing lights, and let it be 95+ outside, then let his brain cook itself while he rambles on, only like a dementia riddled pedo can.
Yeah, turds usually do
That's a sign that there's too much fat in your poop. Might be worth thinking about.
maybe my poop doesnt want to be on a diet, you dont know her
Do it, and please let this be his "Biden debate moment" where he crashes out on stage in front of the world.
Biden's worst day isn't as vile as pedo don's best day
Alternative to Fox News.
What the actual f*** is happening?
I bet someone at the White House emailed [email protected] or something, and the person at the other end thought it would be funny to fuck with them and accept lol
Milli Vanilli Total Landscaping.
What's next?
Millie Vanilli God Bless the USA Bibles.
@Sumocat @Zedstrian With Rob Pilatus being dead since 1998 it would be just Vanilli?
There's two groups of people claiming the name Milli Vanilli: one is the original actual singers (including Jodie Rocco) and the other is
PilatusMorvan (plus supporting musicians). Nobody knows which group they were referring to in the announcement (though they had a picture ofPilatusMorvan) and, afaik,PilatusMorvan hasn't commented yet.Edit: Morvan, not Pilatus. Duh.
So instead of inviting the people who actually made the songs, this implies that they invited half of the duo who didn't make them almost 40 years ago?
Who do you think Trump would want: someone with musical talent, or someone who can look good lip syncing to old songs on stage?
By my math, none of them are going to look pretty up on that stage. They should just hire a pair of attractive black men to lip sync it all over again. Just like Milli Vanilli was back in the day.
Is that really surprising though?
Not remotely. I think it couldn't be more on brand. I think someone offered up Milli Vanilli Total Landscaping. They were spot on.
@Lumidaub Due to being dead since 1998.
I edited, apparently while you were commenting :)
My guess is that it’s another Four Seasons Total Landscaping debacle. Trump just says things and expects his team to make it happen. And he expects everyone around him to bow to his every whim.
The Four Seasons thing was because he announced that he was going to be having a rally at the Four Seasons. This was clearly in reference to the Four Seasons Hotel. But he didn’t have anything booked there yet. The hotel management refused to book it. So Trump ended up at the Four Seasons Total Landscaping instead. Because the alternative would be Trump being shown as a liar.
And this is just another instance of Trump speaking before he has anything actually booked. He expected all the artists to just bend over and agree to do the show, because that’s what normally happens when he makes demands.
Pretty sure there are laws against using federal funds for partisan activities, so this will make a fine addition to our collection (of impeachable offenses)
Further proving the uselessness of the law
I was gonna post that that was doubtful, but then I Did My Own Research and discovered that morbidly obese people have an easier time floating
It was so bizarre losing weight later in life. I've always been around water, and am a strong swimmer, but I moved away from the ocean, and been swimming in little rivers and lakes, not having salt makes the water less dense, coupled with less adipose tissue means I have to really focus on breathing now in order to float. Which I kinda like.
He will probably have a bunch of MAGA pedos and Christian Nationalists do most of the speaking.
He's incapable of putting on an event where he's not the one doing all that talking.
“If you won’t perform at my MAGA rally then to rub it in your face I’ll turn it into a MAGA rally instead! NYA! How do you like that?”
We weren't gonna watch it anyway because we already know that you're just doing it for yourself, so whatever. Have fun rambling away out in the July sun, dumbass.
Why are you posting Fox ’news’ though
@HootinNHollerin @tacoplease
people always like to watch a train crash.
Of course
🤮
@tacoplease
You can almost hope it turns into a riot, but only good people would get hurt.
Ultimately, what Trump is promising his base is a Rwanda-style massacre, where the 'winners' get to kill their 'other' neighbours and take their tv and car, and get away with it.
A 'redistribution of the wealth' - so to speak - until they realize all the people they killed picked their tomatoes, cleaned up their garbage and wiped their grandpas' asses,
And now NOTHING WORKS ANYMORE
Also, some of us will fight back. If they want to come for my shitty car, it had better be worth dying for, because I'll send as many of them to hell as I can.
They say thousands of people will be there!
If you measure in Kelvin.
I always read "Trump floats..." yet, i have seen no proof. We should try and see. Maybe he will in fact sink, would solve a lot of problems.
The fish of this world do not deserve such a fate.
Good point. Need to do it in a contained water reservoir that can be decontaminated later.
I was thinking more something along the lines of the dip from Roger Rabbit.
I'd say a sheep dip, but for pigs.
Would work, he is basically a caricature.
He has been (so far) an unflushable floater.
So the only artist he could get was Leni Riefenstahl?
Speer junior.
Has he hired Leni Riefenstahl for filming the event?
@tacoplease It would've been easier if he just started with Scott Baio. Does anyone know (or I guess I can just assume) if the little girls in the 2017 march for chump got paid?
Wow, that's going to set records for the world's largest rent-a-crowd.
In 1976, up in Canada, as a young lad, I thought..."Geez, imagine how big the birthday party in america will be for it's 250th birthday". What a very sad thing that has happened to that once great nation.
