President Trump said Tuesday hes thinking about putting on a Fourth of July parade or other gathering in Washington, D.C.,
suggesting it could "become a tradition,"
even though a similar event already exists.
It could be a very exciting day, Trump said, calling it a "salute to America."
"Perhaps at the Lincoln Memorial. We're looking at sites. But we're thinking about doing something which would become perhaps, become a tradition, Salute to America, on July 4th or July 4th weekend, somewhere around that area."
D.C. already has established Fourth of July celebrations that include fireworks along the National Mall, a free concert and a parade down Constitution Avenue.

(37,142 posts)Trump does not want to salute the military.
He wants the world to see the military salute him.
Will it be awkward when he refuses POWs a place in his parade?
After all, Donald does not like soldiers who were captured.
