Please, please, please, be more objective. I am not a Trump supporter, but I need fair and honest reporting. It is only early days. Will you revisit the event over the 4th of July weekend? I am sure dome of the kinks will be worked out. Lets let it play out, the review it. Geeez!!
Pretty objective that Trump took the money raised by a bi-partisan Fund, then kicked out the ones he didn't like and put his players on site. How much more objective can you get? The crowd size?
Objective as well as to the few state exhibits. And the expensive minimal food. And the breakdowns. The sparse crowds (do you realize how social media reports go viral?)
I'm sure that the fireworks and air show will get more crowds. That's objective, but guessing.
So, because you believe that those TWO events, plus One Ferris Wheel, $20+ cheeseburgers, NO Fair Food on a stick, cotton candy, popcorn, funnel cakes…with NO Tables or chairs upon which to sit and eat them, NO rides or games for the kiddos, Not even a Balloon for them to purchase, are equal to even a Mediocre 250th Celebration for the founding of a Country?!?!
Hundreds of $Millions spent on Nothing until the Fourth of July’s Fireworks and Air Show?!?! Come on!! Are you Freaking Serious?!?!
Objective, my Ass!! This “fair” is Another one of Shitler’s Epic Failures!! Please Don’t Make Up Excuses For This, Yet, ANOTHER EMBARRASSMENT in front of the World that the Ass Hat in the Oval Office has provided for the American people!!
You’re not helping anyone to feel better about More of our tax dollars being, Obviously, Stolen and used to line the pockets of those in this Disgraceful, Corrupt Regime.
Yes, some social media posts do tend to go viral. Today is day 3 of the 16 day “event”. It’s been going on for Friday, Saturday and now part of Sunday during a Beautiful June weekend in DC. Plenty of time for this video to go viral. I’m not seeing any Real improvement in crowd size. I’ve never seen ANY fair in the US have such an Incredibly Low turnout for an opening weekend. Even If the crowd size Doubles, it is still an Epic Failure.
I’m sorry, I can’t be as optimistic as you are. I think if you open your eyes and think about what you’re seeing, you’ll have no choice but to understand my point.
Donna, you seem to have misinterpreted my remarks. I am the FURTHEST thing from "objective" on the waste, fraud, and abuse of the Trump Administration. My reply was pure sarcasm.
He said he is going to have a report on July 4th too but I am a local and the 4th of July in dc always draws huge crowds the fireworks are phenomenal music hell they had the beach boys one year so always a huge crowd
The $80 mil definitely went in his & his family & friends’ pockets!!
Adam definitely should go on the 4th, interview people like the woman performing with what looks like a gymnastics/dance ribbon thingy & ask her what it was like to perform in the DC heat w/ practically no one watching?!? (It’s probably great rehearsal for her more than a performance!) What an utter disgrace.
I hope not DC fireworks are freaking awesome I’m good for going to the monument cause the music will suck there are a few more spots and it local GOGO music usually playing love the atmosphere
Regardless of the turn out, for Trump this was a success. He got his kick backs (laundered taxpayer money). Everything and I mean everything that trump does is for the kick backs. This isn't conjecture. He is literally putting our taxes into his pocket whether hidden in crypto, sent offshore or invested through third parties. It's CONGRESS folks! This entire fiasco has always been republicans in congress that have been and still are enabling this insanity. And while we are focusing on trump and his actions Russell Vought and the Heritage Foundation are accomplishing their hidden agenda...They have out maneuvered democrats and the likes of Fetterman.
Really? That’s your biggest complaint?! Give me a break better yet give Adam a break because he’s out there doing the work that we are not. Good grief get over yourself.
Heaving a sigh of relief- sorry, I just realized that my age sets me apart once again. I'll go to my wigwam , curl up with my well- worn blanket the tribe has so kindly given me and silently wait for death . I forgot that my 75+ years means I have nothing relevant to say.
Well, for one -I don’t eat Post Toasties and two -Adam is not from the era of the grand old Opry, but he does have a lot of important information to give us. no need to be offended. I just like to talk about things that actually matter and not shame somebody from a younger generation for not knowing what the grand old Opry is.
Simply breaks my heart! I blame the Republicans in Congress! They are all violating their oath to the constitution which to me is Treason! How is it not Treason?
Madman lost within his 250 year fair, with overpriced sausages, melted ice cream and a ferris wheel that doesn’t work. As his minions are quietly masterminding plans to steal our voting rights…We need to stay many steps ahead of them!
Yes he sucked the joy out of this celebration. Surprised they haven’t started paying people to come yet. They are advertising the biggest fireworks display ever seen in the whole world. These statements have becoming warnings of corruption to people.
I’ll bet the parking is a paycheck, and the food will cost your weekly grocery bill if you have kids. It’s so cheesy. And maybe the fireworks will be good but I’d rather see one of those BIG DRONE shows like China
I would rather you report on your local July 4th parade or fair where people are actually showing up. Interview the public there. We really need something uplifting instead of paying attention to him. He doesn't warrant all of your attention.
Isn't there 17million missing from the Kennedy Center?
Granted, but the 250th belongs to us, the American people, not a narcissist who destroys everything for your sole attention and distraction. We should be celebrating those who are fighting every day holding the line, like lawyers, judges, DA's, some congressmen (and just maybe think about the Ukrainians), protesters and everyday people who fight to preserve our constitution and rights while at the same time maybe steeling our resolve for the tough times ahead. Take a break from the crazy, erratic behavior. I'm going to a corny parade where they serve a pancake breakfast, march out all the locals in ethnic costumes, the local marching band and old cars. I lost family in wars protecting this country and in recent history protestors have lost their lives, so hell yes, my attention for the 250th is only reserved on the goodness and decency of the people of our country. This is our country.
Sounds like you'd rather go to the regional state and county fairs. Highly recommended. Sheena, I think that we're on the same page. Let's not misunderstand one another. I grew up with county fairs that were genuine. They DO provide a needed escape.
And they cost much, much less. Trump's show is a disgrace. "The Builder, the "Successful Businessman," blah blah blah. I certainly hope that Americans are beginning to realize "The Great Conman."
What I can't figure out is that the admission prices for states to participate were high, I read . . . yet Maine and CT were there? I did read also that some prices were funded by voluntary donations.
As opposed to that festival which Adam described, which would have been free to attend and available to rich and poor. A perfect symbol of our democracy.
It would cost a family of 4 ($27 per sandwich and $9 per drink) $144. Now I rarely go out to eat; but that seems totally outrageous to me considering the economic pressures most families are going through now.
Do that go and debate them. Trump is just to much! Why can't he let People do what they suppose to do? He's shitting everything that Peddo. I was thinking: Napoleon had syfilis, I think Trump got it to. He's a insane narcissist just like Napoleon and he do crazy shitty things. Just like N😂😂😂 what do you think about this? 🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪
Who got the $80 MILLION of OUR money?! Whose pockets did it go to?! 😡
All inquiring minds would also like to know.
Please, please, please, be more objective. I am not a Trump supporter, but I need fair and honest reporting. It is only early days. Will you revisit the event over the 4th of July weekend? I am sure dome of the kinks will be worked out. Lets let it play out, the review it. Geeez!!

It sucks … stuff doesn’t even work?!?!?
Neither does Shitler!
No one cares.
Exactly!

My apologies.
I’ve read so many crazy MAGA comments, that I temporarily lost my ability to distinguish sarcasm from the Crazy.
As I’m sure you’ve already deduced, I’m very passionate about what is happening to our country.
I’m happy to learn we have one less supporter of the Regime.
Again, I’m very sorry for misreading your intent.
Ugh
He said he is going to have a report on July 4th too but I am a local and the 4th of July in dc always draws huge crowds the fireworks are phenomenal music hell they had the beach boys one year so always a huge crowd
Let’s see if it goes to shit after tRump touches it.
We should be guaranteed an enormous crowd. After all, who Doesn’t love a good fireworks display??
Few decent musical acts want to be associated with the Pedifile King. So don't hold your breath
You are free to “revisit” whatever you want. But please, speak for yourself. Most of us have more productive, ways to spend our time and money.
His pocket
The $80 mil definitely went in his & his family & friends’ pockets!!
Adam definitely should go on the 4th, interview people like the woman performing with what looks like a gymnastics/dance ribbon thingy & ask her what it was like to perform in the DC heat w/ practically no one watching?!? (It’s probably great rehearsal for her more than a performance!) What an utter disgrace.
You already know someone close someone who will give a kickback to dumpster fire or dumpster fire’s family
I hope not DC fireworks are freaking awesome I’m good for going to the monument cause the music will suck there are a few more spots and it local GOGO music usually playing love the atmosphere

FFS Who do you think? Who has taken all of our money, tax payers $$, who has sued himself for our money?? Please! 🤦🏻♀️🤬🤬🤡💩🎪
Where do you think it went 😉
Let me guess …. Ummmm, Trump?
Makes you realize how some people just destroy joy for everybody!
Please research how to pronounce “ Grand Ole Opry”. You're better than this.
Really? That’s your biggest complaint?! Give me a break better yet give Adam a break because he’s out there doing the work that we are not. Good grief get over yourself.
Heaving a sigh of relief- sorry, I just realized that my age sets me apart once again. I'll go to my wigwam , curl up with my well- worn blanket the tribe has so kindly given me and silently wait for death . I forgot that my 75+ years means I have nothing relevant to say.
Please. Now you’re gonna play the victim role? Nobody was tearing you down over your age. It was absolutely quite the opposite.
This is all a complete waste of time but you have a wonderful day
Who pissed in your Post Toasties?
Well, for one -I don’t eat Post Toasties and two -Adam is not from the era of the grand old Opry, but he does have a lot of important information to give us. no need to be offended. I just like to talk about things that actually matter and not shame somebody from a younger generation for not knowing what the grand old Opry is.
Who cares? Mostly stupid people listen to country music, anyway.
He’s all of 23. Cut him a little slack maybe?
I understand what you’re saying. But, his.” all of”is quite impressive.
Most people don’t give two shits about the “Grand Ole Opry“
There's more important things to worry about….Keep talking ADAM!
Give him a break. He’s too young to have even seen it or heard about it.
Kids! They just don’t know how much they just don’t know.
LOL.
Who is “everybody”?
Who are “you?”
Simply breaks my heart! I blame the Republicans in Congress! They are all violating their oath to the constitution which to me is Treason! How is it not Treason?
No one wants to attend it after he has turned it into a campaign rally
Madman lost within his 250 year fair, with overpriced sausages, melted ice cream and a ferris wheel that doesn’t work. As his minions are quietly masterminding plans to steal our voting rights…We need to stay many steps ahead of them!

Would love a Birds Eye view of DC to see what it looks like in the fourth.
Why should people go to this when they have great regional celebrations to attend?
I would rather you report on your local July 4th parade or fair where people are actually showing up. Interview the public there. We really need something uplifting instead of paying attention to him. He doesn't warrant all of your attention.
Isn't there 17million missing from the Kennedy Center?
He warrants our attention as to the scandal that he created by denying the permits for the other festival.
Granted, but the 250th belongs to us, the American people, not a narcissist who destroys everything for your sole attention and distraction. We should be celebrating those who are fighting every day holding the line, like lawyers, judges, DA's, some congressmen (and just maybe think about the Ukrainians), protesters and everyday people who fight to preserve our constitution and rights while at the same time maybe steeling our resolve for the tough times ahead.

Even better.... Play the two events side by side.
The reason Connecticut, and Maine, and probably many other states aren't well represented is because many states boycotted it.
Maine certainly did.
I think 17 states boycotted.
You bet we did. It’s a travesty. CT snd ME are having their own celebrations.
What I can't figure out is that the admission prices for states to participate were high, I read . . . yet Maine and CT were there? I did read also that some prices were funded by voluntary donations.
As opposed to that festival which Adam described, which would have been free to attend and available to rich and poor. A perfect symbol of our democracy.
The Fat Orange Waddling Corpse is stealing our country's birthday.
Complete treason hanging confederate flags.
Yes, do go on 4th of July and livestream and talk to people
It would cost a family of 4 ($27 per sandwich and $9 per drink) $144. Now I rarely go out to eat; but that seems totally outrageous to me considering the economic pressures most families are going through now.
Did you hear about “uncle sam” pleasuring himself during the aerial demonstrations and was arrested??! Trumps followers!! https://substack.com/@heavenlight/note/c-283991697?r=53vtnx&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=notes-share-action
Figures. One of the pedo’s relatives?
Didn’t that also happen at his birthday celebration with another dude getting arrested for choking the 🐥
Yeah. He's supposedly a right wing "influencer," I read today.
So embarrassing. So disappointing. Not a celebration; closer to a deathwatch. We’re mourning 250 years of American democracy on its deathbed.
Thank you, Adam, for bringing us the truth.
Do that go and debate them. Trump is just to much! Why can't he let People do what they suppose to do? He's shitting everything that Peddo. I was thinking: Napoleon had syfilis, I think Trump got it to. He's a insane narcissist just like Napoleon and he do crazy shitty things. Just like N😂😂😂 what do you think about this? 🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪
I've been saying he has a syphyllitic brain since his first term.
Thats what Im wanna say! Napoleon was derenged, crazy, liked young boys just like Trump they are so simultania/ sorry my bad english//!
They go out and starts new wars, attacking their allies, go after personal 'enemies' !
They are in the same stages in detering their syfhilis brain, mush, swamp, stupidity and on and on......
Just thinking here from Sweden 🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪
