A 4th of July Tradition

I watched my late father’s favorite movie, Yankee Doodle Dandy, once again today on the 4th of July. Has there ever been a more patriotic American than George M. Cohan? Has there ever been a less patriotic president than Donald Trump? I’m filled with anger knowing that this POS will be in office next year on the 250th anniversary of our republic. No president has done more to bring down democracy in our nation. He does not deserve to be in office. The SOB should be in prison. Fuck him and fuck his MAGA cult.

He was a fan of James Cagney, an Irish American like my Dad.

Yes a US sitting president who is destroying our country.
Totally shameful and disgusting.

My father would be saying the same thing as you are if he were alive.

Really fun, great music. And George M. Cohan was actually born on the 3rd of July!

Maybe trump will stroke out before then.
