President Donald Trump will be on Washington’s National Mall on Wednesday seeking to deliver a campaign-style rally that gets Americans excited about his presidency and America’s 250th anniversary celebrations.
The event comes after a day of tense meetings between Trump and Republicans in Congress over the Iran war, and a decision by a federal judge that sets back Trump’s agenda to overhaul U.S. elections. Trump’s role as the anniversary event’s headliner emerged after several musicians canceled their appearances, citing concerns the event had become politicized.
