OMG I guess he's really going to do it, according to CNN

[senseandsensibility]

Trump to Host Ceremony After Artists Bail on 250th Anniversary Concerts is the chyron on CNN. Supposedly he confirmed one to one of their reporters that he is going to be the headliner now. Didn't tell them how he's going to fill the time after he does his two fisted robotic "dance" for the few seconds he seems to be capable of.

I really didn't think that even he would have that little self awareness and that big of an ego. Yeah, he said he was bigger than Elvis and doesn't even have to play guitar (as if he could do that or anything else) but I thought it was like everything that comes out of his mouth. Nonsense.

Sounds like this one man extravaganzas is going to make that birthday military parade look like a popular fan favorite. What a disaster. What an embarrassment.

[Irish_Dem]

1. I certainly hope the stress of this doesn't overload his system in a bad way.

I think he should do five or six hours of the show.
All by himself.

[LymphocyteLover]

3. indeed, that would be TERRIBLE

[senseandsensibility]

4. Seriously, I can not imagine anything less entertaining

than trump bragging about himself for hours. And you know that's what it will end up being.

[Irish_Dem]

9. If he keels over that would be entertaining.

I know, can you imagine him going on and on for hours about how wonderful he is.
And how terrible everyone else in the world is to him.

His victim narrative along with all of his grandiosity.

[2naSalit]

14. Perhaps...

That's how it actually ends.

He can't accept that nobody likes him, he'll get up there all by himself and brag until he collapses and dies right there.

I'd watch that from a distance.

[Irish_Dem]

18. It would be a fitting end to an evil and infamous career.

[Harker]

40. As the booming fireworks crescendo colorfully lights up the night sky.

I like it, and I don't care for fireworks.

[Justice matters.]

45. Well, his epstein-class of billionaires and stupid sycophantic cultists do love him...

Aside from them, yeah, nobody likes him.

[Onthefly]

94. They don't love him. He is easy to manipulate.

[travelingthrulife]

80. Best 4th of July ever!

[wnylib]

19. Not just bragging, but whining. His 2 favorite things to do.

[slingsam]

82. I want him to order his entire cabinet to attend

And listen to him for 5 hours

[MIButterfly]

91. and having to stand there all five hours in ill-fitting shoes!

[eppur_se_muova]

13. The more vigorous enthusiasm he shows, the better it is for his health.

If I were on X*, that's the advice I'd give him.

And fuel up with lots of greasy fast food for energy first. And RFKJ can find some contaminated water to boost his immune system.














*As if.

[Irish_Dem]

16. Exactly. He needs to sing, dance, yell, get angry, laugh loudly, etc.

Go on and on in the hot sun.

All of a stomach full of McDonald's food.
And Diet Coke.

[misanthrope]

84. I think he could show everyone how virile he is by simply

doing calisthenics onstage in the midday sun for about 20 minutes. It would shut up all the critics. They would probably be very, very scared then.

All those critics -- big, strong critics, muscular guys with rippling biceps that gleam in the sun like they're covered in sweat and oil -- would come to him, tears in their eyes and tell him, "Sir, now that I've seen what a superior physical specimen you are, I know you must be the greatest man who ever lived."

Show 'em, Donnie. We just know you can do it.

[magicarpet]

60. If the Orange Tyrant snorted coke up his left nostril and Adderall up his right nostril,...

.... he could do a 10 to 12 hour non-stop speech and dancing show.

With any luck he could have a birthday heart attack right on stage for all the world to witness.

[Irish_Dem]

69. Yes Don Jr should get a good sized delivery on drugs for his dad.

How thoughtful of him.

[magicarpet]

71. .... a birthday death gift for the Orange Fuhrer.

[Irish_Dem]

72. Don Jr inherits all the Trump Crime family assets.

Billions and billions of dollars.

[dem4decades]

2. Come on rain.

[senseandsensibility]

6. Please, won't someone think of the

HAIR?

[dem4decades]

8. And the pool of orange make up on the ground.

[Irish_Dem]

10. His new wig that he wears is water proof I bet.

His hair keeps getting bigger and bigger lately.

[maddiemom]

51. YES!

I see his hairpieces keep getting fuller and fuller. Thankfully the increasingly ridiculous comb over (or FORWARD) is gone.

[Irish_Dem]

55. You and I seem to be the only ones who have noticed it.

He started wearing a new hairpiece last month.
Then last week a bigger one.

Right the asinine comb over is gone.

But he is getting more bouffant by the day.

[senseandsensibility]

77. Okay, but why is the color changing every few days?

From red/gold, lighter gold to snow white. It's ridiculous.

[Irish_Dem]

81. I know, it is weird.

I think they must have quite a selection of the new wigs, and they are test driving them
to see which ones look better on camera. And inside and outside pictures and video.

And which ones Trump feels more handsome wearing.
I know I want to throw up on this one.

[littlemissmartypants]

23. Don't you mean hailstorm with frequent lightning?

I mean, go big or go home, right?

[DBoon]

31. Not, not hail

Just one very well placed lightening strike.

Just one.

[Wonder Why]

57. You mean one that will send him to hail?

Sometimes, I make typos.

[catchnrelease]

61. OOohhh

Just thinking about all of that metal scaffolding and framework around the stage. It could be pretty dangerous in a thunder/lightning storm. It would be such a shame if.....well you all know.

[GopherGal]

96. I keep thinking of this scene, for some reason...

?t=107]

[Raven123]

76. Or at least some of that stifling hot, humid DC weather.

[kimbutgar]

5. I hope it is the lowest rating of viewing on TV ever !

There is no way I will watch tv that day if he is on celebrating the destruction of our country that he has done!

[Escape]

26. If that happens..

It will totally be Biden's fault.

[kimbutgar]

30. So true!🤣😆

[Deuxcents]

7. I want a beautiful, hot day because he'd blame the rain for the no shows

Nice hot and uncomfortable for the cult to get a taste of birthday boy’s eternal destination.

[eppur_se_muova]

22. While the gnats get a good taste of them. And share it around.

Maybe I should place a bet that Trmp 250 becomes a super-spreader event ....

[Tree Lady]

32. Don't forget the bees

After firing the scientists trying to save them, the bees should be nice and angry.

[Faux pas]

11. LOLOLOLOL....

[AZJonnie]

12. That dance you speak of has an official name: The Jerking-Off Two Giraffes (nt)

[state of stupid]

33. Well since it is going to be a circus anyway and the people will want something

to remember.... put a couple of real giraffes on stage with him and let him go to town
for real.

[Ray Bruns]

90. At least the Romans got BREAD and circuses.

[OGBuzz]

15. A Donald Trump dementia fuelled political rally to celebrate America's 250th birthday.

I hope the universe will be watching.

[BWdem4life]

17. I thought you were gonna say

He was gonna invade Cuba.

[Baitball Blogger]

20. If I would write down a scene for the moment when he publicly begins a massive downfall,

this would be it. I just hope the microphone is on when he begins to lose control of his bowel movements.

[Wiz Imp]

21. There was NEVER a singular concert scheduled for June 25. Multiple concerts over about 2 weeks were planned.

Also, the concerts were under the banner of FREEDOM 250, a MAGA organization, NOT America 250. America 250 is non-partisan and the performers were led to believe that was who was sposoring the concerts. They backed out when they found out it was FREEDOM 250.

Original Schedule
Martina McBride | June 25
C+C Music Factory | June 26
Vanilla Ice | June 26
Milli Vanilli | June 26
Young MC | June 26
The Commodores | June 27
Morris Day and The Time | June 27
Flo Rida | July 2
Bret Michaels | July 3

[C_U_L8R]

24. Ladies and Gentlemen...the comedic stylings of Donny J.

Or perhaps he’ll sing? Juggle? Magic tricks? Contortionism?
Maybe he’ll just sit in front of a mirror for 90 minutes, admiring himself

[Ritabert]

27. Melania will recite Shakespearean selections...

"To be best or not to be best.....zat is ze question."

[some_of_us_are_sane]

29. LOL!!!!

[usonian]

25. I heard that he fired the union electrician.

Shocking

[3825-87867]

28. Maybe he'll reqiest a glass booth ala the 1961 Eichmann Trial

"trump's" 4 inch bullet proof glass, missile and flame proof and he can hope as he "drones" on and of it's that proof, also.
Plus full air conditioning, portapotty, Mikki D's food tray but a silent mic!
Then when he finishes, simply lock the booth 24/7...transport to either Epstein Island or the Zorro Ranch, set up a display...and charge for admission. On the side for a slight fee, you can get used Depends and dung to throw at the booth. Proceeds going to all our previous overseas friends.

[doc03]

34. He will just ramble on endlessly about how bad he is treated and attack his enemies.

[senseandsensibility]

36. And ain't nobody got time for that

[Karasu]

50. Too many Republicans sure do.

[senseandsensibility]

54. Even they are slowly losing interest in his nonsense

when they can't afford the basics. Not fast enough, though. I think they are going to have to pay people to listen to that for hours in numbers big enough to look good on TV.

[saif]

35. OMG I guess he's really going to do it, according to CNN

Let’s wait for official confirmation—CNN reports still need context before jumping to conclusions.

[Goonch]

37. ;-{) LEADER OF THE BAND

[Buns_of_Fire]

38. Live! From Washington! It's the Donald Trump Show!

Also featuring his wacky sidekick Stephen Miller and the Steven Cheung Dancers. Tonight's sketches: Someone takes a dump on Donald's Filet-O-Fish, Donald accidentally levels the Lincoln Memorial.

[oldsoldierfadingfast]

39. I have just reced ...

everyone who has posted a reply as I am totally of the same mind as all of you. If anyone else posts a reply, let me know so I can rec you too!

[senseandsensibility]

43. That's the spirit!

If nothing else, we can get some laughs out of this. I still ridicule is underrated when it comes to trump.

[Raine1967]

42. I am a bit concerned. What if this is J6 2.0?

I'm not a pearl clutcher, but this is ripe for his malitia dudes to show up. I am not hearing about security or any other plans for the National Mall for any of this -- including the announced concerts that aren't happening.

[oldsoldierfadingfast]

52. Never to worry ...

it will be only his Magats that will show up - his militia can fight them all they want to and I won't care. Will you?

[Raine1967]

56. I don't understand this response.

Some people aren't MAGA, nor militias that come to visit DC ALL THE TIME.

I care. I live in the region. Please further explain yourself.

[oldsoldierfadingfast]

85. In my opinion ...

only Trump's militias and Magat's will hang around long enough to listen to his and his appointees speeches. Only if he can come up with some good performers will 'regular' people stay. Once the performers are done - they will be outa there leaving Trumpy and his crowd to have the venue all to themselves.
I have family and friends who live and/or work in the area and they are not worried.

[orangecrush]

65. Exactly

Nothing funny about this shit.

[oldsoldierfadingfast]

87. My reply #2 ...

Just because you are not hear about security doesn't mean that it isn't happening. On 6 Jan, the Capital was blind-sided.
ALL DC law enforcement officials will be well prepared for this event - with back-up from surrounding areas and the NG waiting in the wings.

[misanthrope]

88. No one is counting votes that day

Congress isn't scheduled to be in session that day -- the recess then runs July 3-12. Then how could it be a replay of Jan. 6?

[Prairie_Seagull]

44. How can any performer now say,

this is all about our country. Bullshit never was and most certainly is not now.

[Marie Marie]

46. How much time will he spend wishing himself a Happy Birthday?

Somebody has to - if not he himself then who? Not Melania. Me Me Me Me.

[pwb]

47. Delusions of greatness. Trump talking to himself

is all it is.

[Cheezoholic]

48. I've got a fruit basket ready to travel ;) ;) n/t

[Katinfl]

49. If I were not living this nightmare I would never believe this is reality.

[Figarosmom]

53. Too bad some other organization didn't think to

Reserve a space in DC for an alternate fair or concert.

[lame54]

58. Why isn't there a counter concert...

With actual STARS
Steal his audience

[catchnrelease]

66. Indivisible is promoting watch parties etc

I know the event in NYC is having Bette Midler and some other celebs.

https://indivisible.org/events/rise-up-sing-out-celebrate-virtual-watch-party/

[DinahMoeHum]

78. Yep, I'm going to one of those parties. . .

. . .me and other Indivisible buddies in my area.

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

59. the artists that bailed... they should have known better when they signed up

[C Moon]

62. I hope he sings for two hours.

[magicarpet]

70. djt's voice as a singer is better than Dean Martins,..

.... and his man tool is bigger than Frank Sinatra's and Arnold Palmer's combined together. His current stage presents is 10X better than Elvis' during his younger years.

[C Moon]

83. :D

[WestMichRad]

63. He's gonna throw Big Macs to the crowd.

One lucky recipient will find a non-functional fake gold plated phone in his/her sandwich box!

[orangecrush]

64. He's going to incite a riot.

Any Democrats in DC at the time should implement high security.

[ProfessorGAC]

67. Why Would Anbody Think...

...that he'll be able to stay awake to host this abomination?

[BradBo]

68. Yes!!!

Please, please, please Mr. President sir (with tears in my eyes) please headline the event and preform for hours and hours to entertain the American masses craving your glory!!!!!!

[Mr.Bee]

73. 25th Ammendment, anyone??

[Crowman2009]

74. It would be nice if he died onstage like that movie "The Rose".

Only difference being that unlike Bette Midler's character, most people watching on TV will cheer.

[Hope22]

75. Never fear...

They will hop him up on god knows what, ‘the debate cocktail’ one last time!! Do or die!! This is a disgusting fiasco!!

[czarjak]

79. Will be the largest attended event in history.

Period!

[BigmanPigman]

86. He'll attempt to sing ,"It's my party and I'll cry if I want to"

And the "non-fatty" military troops who are currently invited as props with not be singing Happy Birthday to him. I can guarantee that.

[JohnnyRingo]

89. It will be the ultimate MAGA rally full of his speeches of how great he is

...and how horrible "dumocrats" are
Any performer who signs on to this will be giving their endorsement fully to him. Not to America, not to the GOP, but to that one man .Get a room Kid Rock.

[lostnfound]

92. Make it required watching for all of his donors nt

[Escape]

93. Bigger than Elvis?.....

Yeah, about 50 lbs bigger.

[republianmushroom]

95. Hopefully, he strokes out on stage.

[tonekat]

97. He should sing Radiohead's "Creep"

With a projection of Epstein as a hologram.

[rickford66]

98. This could be his "Lonesome Rhodes" moment

[FakeNoose]

99. There will be nobody in the audience

We'll be laughing at him, everyone else will ignore him.

[duckworth969]

100. Dance himself into cardiac arrest

[fierywoman]

101. Elvis's largest crowd (number): 62,500.

[bluedigger]

102. Where is Clint Eastwood when we really need him?
