I cannot celebrate our Nations 250th Birthday

This place is a far cry from the Country our forefathers envisioned.
I bet I'm not alone in this feeling.
It stinks but the Pedophile in Residence has changed this Country in ways we will be fixing for years to come if we are lucky enough to have the chance.
I'm not sure we will.

I am rooting the USMNT. Not to the point I'd wear any of that gear though.

The only thing to celebrate is he will soon be dead and the de-trumpification of America can begin. Now THAT will be worth celebrating!!

I have attended celebrations over the years but I felt no emotion at all. I haven't felt one bit patriotic since I was a kid.

My parents instilled in me a love for what they knew as our country.
July 4 was Granddad’s birthday and we had a big picnic with sparklers and the grill going all day.
It was parades, and flags and…

Now it’s one horrible thing after another - every damned day..

I mean, what’s left?
