President Trump has reportedly taken a personal interest in his administration's plan for July 4 celebrations in Washington D.C., and has notified city officials of plans to potentially alter the yearly celebration with a personal address.
The Washington Post reported Friday that plans are in the works for Trump to address the nation from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, while moving the city's traditional fireworks display from the steps of the Capitol Reflecting Pool to nearby West Potomac Park.
The administration reportedly contends that moving the fireworks display will allow more visitors to attend the celebrations, on which top aides reportedly told the Post the president has requested regular briefings and plans to focus around an address from himself.
The White House did not immediately return a request for comment from The Hill on the Post's report. News of Trump's reported plans to address the nation as part of July 4 celebrations come after the administration tabled plans to hold a military parade in the vein of Bastille Day celebrations in France following public backlash and criticism from Washington, D.C. officials.
An official with Washington D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser's (D) administration panned the reported July 4 plans in a statement to the Post, telling the newspaper that the city would have to reexamine logistics for the celebration once the White House's plans were finalized.
“We have a lot of people come to the Fourth of July. Logistically, over the years, the kinks have been worked out,” the official reportedly said. “We don’t want to throw off what already works.”
The news was also criticized by Rep. Betty McCollum (D-Minn.), chairwoman of the House Subcommittee on Interior, Environment and Related Agencies, which oversees the Interior Department which Trump has reportedly tasked with carrying out the celebration.
“It’s not about any one president. It’s about how our nation came to be, because of a hardy band of brave men and women,” McCollum told the Post. “It’s not about any one person, it’s about ‘We, the people.’ And if the president moves to make this about him, I think he will find the America public disappointed and angered by it.”
Wonderful....can’t wait!!!!!
Hard to compete with Macy’s NYC display.
Wonderful....can’t wait!!!!!
This makes me nervous though. So many loony tunes around, especially in DC.
And the Demonicrats have been using all their code words to activate the loonies to try something evil.
You have another think coming, loser!
“And if the president moves to make this about him, I think he will find the America public disappointed and angered by it.”
But eight YEARS of listening to 0bama and his,’Me, Me, Me, I, I, I’ every d@mn DAY was A-OK?
Got it! *SNORT*
P.S. Attend a RALLY. President Trump NEVER makes it about HIM - he makes it about We The People and how we can ALL MAGA! :)
I'm, like, totally surprised.
Make it happen Mr President. Do not cave like you did on the military parade.
I can see this woman already, a Lily Tomlin type.
We’ve got “our way” of doing things. How dare he!
Trump is a logistics person. If he thinks he can get more people in, I’d listen to him.
I will admit it’s only seven to eight weeks away, but I don’t know how long ago he made the request either.
I like the idea of a patriotic presentation by the CIC.
Cool.
MFJGA! - Make the Fourth of July Great Again!
Bwaaaahahahahaaaaaaaaaa
Pelosi and Nadler will scream that Trump is intruding on a national holiday with politics directed at his base.
Good, anything disrupting the status quo is good, especially his address.
Lock her up.
Sorry, I agree if this just came up, this is not a good idea. Sounds to me like more time would need to be devoted to planning the logistics of all the changes.
Let it be. If anything is going to change, it should be studied at least a year in advance.
