250th Anniversary of America: 1776-2026

[Chasstev365]

And I was 11 in 1976 for the Bicentennial. I remember Bicentennial Beer Cans, fast food commerotive glasses, Triangle replica hats; everything! Even my older brother's high school diploma was red, white, and blue. Yes, it was in the shadow of Watergate, but the system worked and America was proud.

Because of the Orange Anus, I feel NOTHING! I can't believe the CIA, Supreme Court, the Republican Party, and military learned nothing from the Founding Fathers and have allowed the Trump shitshow to go on and on. No celebration this year.

1. I might have been excited had this been another year

My hope now is to spend July 4th abroad to get away from Trump’s ego fest and jingoistic parade.

2. I was only 4 so I barely remember it

Which is why I'd looked forward to this anniversary for years. Now I don't feel like celebrating. He'll just make it about himself anyways.

3. I, personally, think someone should write America's obituary.
