Former US President Donald Trump has vowed to throw a "year-long party" to mark the country's 250th birthday - also referred to as the Semiquincentennial - should he be elected to serve a second term of office next November.
July 4, 2026 will mark the 250th anniversary of the signing of the United States Declaration of Independence in 1776, with Trump promising a big celebration "for everything we've gone through".
The 77-year old made the pledge on Saturday during a speech at the Faith & Freedom Coalition's Conference in Washington, D.C.
