Trump's Mount Rushmore Fourth of July Celebration With No Social Distancing Sparks Controversy
Despite a surge in coronavirus cases across the country, President Donald Trump's Fourth of July [...]
So spreading wildfires and a pandemic all for a few moments to stroke his fragile ego... he's like all the biblical plagues rolled into one.

prevnext4th of July hasn't been celebrated with fireworks for years because of fire hazard in Black Hills National Forest.
Trump doesn't care, he wants to honor himself.

This kind of thing is just so mind boggling. I will always wish we had had a REAL leader here in the U.S. for this awful pandemic and not someone who provided nothing but indifference & is now seemingly doing everything in his power to just make things worse than they need to be.

prevnextThere should not be a July 4th celebration in the middle of this pandemic. Masks must be mandatory nationwide to slow the spread of the virus.

What's sad about this they will spread it to the people who have been trying to follow guidelines & stay safe from becoming infected.

Considering how Mount Rushmore is actually on stolen land and is in the middle of a vast forest and it’s been a dry summer. Fireworks show on stolen Indian land at monument to slave owning and Indian hating presidents. Not great.

Just plain ignorance. Trump doesn’t care who gets covid19. He doesn’t care about anyone except himself. He’s a menace to society! #SociopathTrump

I can’t think of a better example of Darwinism than Trump voters refusing to wear masks and social distance.
