That is really damn hot and not what I would characterize as "much cooler". The forecasted high for the day is 101.

No coolers or folding chairs | Here's what you can't bring to 4th of July fireworks at the Washington Monument

Drink tumblers, skateboards, balls and frisbees are also prohibited from the Fourth of July fireworks celebration at the Washington Monument.

Political cartoons do not have to be factually accurate because they are legally protected forms of opinion, satire, and rhetorical hyperbole. They use intentional exaggeration, distortion, and metaphor rather than literal truth to deliver a critique.

This is how he's gotten through his long-winded/no substance bloviations before, but maybe - just maybe, they'll give him one too many and he'll keel over from the combination of heat stroke and od'ing.

I don't want him to die on the Fourth, besmirching our national birthday with his passing. His cult will use it to turn him into a "martyr," for lack of a better word. They'll see it as a sign from heaven of his "greatness," and make him into a demigod. I don't want them to have that, so no, I don't want him to die on the Fourth.

I'll take the Fifth, however.....!
