Kind of like when the media always does it?

Every cabinet meeting opens with a round table of Trump's lackeys giving a mandatory speech about how great Trump is.

I've never seen anything like it in this country before, and I'm sure it's very similar to how North Korea operates.

Yet more bitter exaggeration. You can’t throw a rock and not hit some bitter exaggeration about Trump around here. I tell you what.

Biden supposedly had 9 Cabinet meetings. No one knows if he, Hunter or Jill were running them.
Obama had a few more. Only one open to the press.
Trump has had 9 so far this year, and takes questions. I thought people wanted transparency?

EVERY Biden and Obama cabinet member, or other people in their administrations, only spewed glowing reports any time they were interviewed, but you have a problem when Trump’s people do it?

People are objecting to Trump making it more about himself. The country music artists said they agreed to play if it was truly nonpartisan and reflected everyone. The stupid proposed $250 bill, the UFC fight cage on the White House lawn, ballroom,etc. is turning people off bigly…

I fixed it for you.

An overwhelming majority don’t care one way or the other about any of this.

I just don't really understand why we're celebrating historically this is around the time that empires die because of their hedonism and love of money.


What?

I’m not even saying it’s a bad thing. Clearly though, Trump is owning the America 250 thing as a combined celebration of himself along with America. The UFC Freedom 250 fight at the White House is being held on his 80th birthday. Proposed a $250 bill with trumps face on it. Commemorative America 250 passport with Trump’s face on it. The DC Arch, etc. it’s about Trump, and that’s ok. But it is.

The entire lineup was a bunch of C-listers at best. And honestly that pisses me off because I'm going to be there for it, and I wasn't even planning on seeing any of those shows anyway. Too many other things to see and do.

That said, if those artists careers weren't over before, I'd say it certainly is now. Those of us who just want to go enjoy a good time and celebrate the country are not happy.

And those who hate Trump and are taking this as win are also shitting on the performers with the "even these shitty artists (which they likely paid off) want nothing to do with Trump" attitude.

Cool out, bro. And I’m having a hard time believing that you’re speaking for anyone else than yourself. Cut the shite with the “those of us” stuff. Maybe you do speak for one or two other people via power of attorney, but that’s it. I’ll spot you three. Not exactly trending news.

It was done on purpose so that they could do exactly what they are doing ... put on a big public display withdrawing.


My first thought as well. Sure seems like a coordinated "accept and drop out". I mean seriously, the lineup of people withdrawing is like a who's who of has beens that no one cares one way or the other if they perform or don't. The only performance needed is the withdrawal statement.

The same EXACT thing. Cue the montage of 50 news outlets spewing the same phrase. "It evolved into something else". WTF is that kamala word salad supposed to mean?

Its just liberals whine and the artists bend a knee.

It is quite funny how in twisted little TDS minds the country's birthday, a once in 3 lifetimes event, is somehow invented by Trump
