US President Donald Trump turns 80 this Sunday, and the White House lawn has been transformed into a giant arena, complete with floodlights, cameras, giant Star-Spangled Banners and a 90-foot scaffold known as "The Claw", as 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue hosts "Freedom 250", a celebration featuring professional UFC cage fighting.
The event combines three occasions: Trump's birthday, Flag Day – which marks the adoption of the US flag in 1777 – and the launch of celebrations leading up to the 250th anniversary of American independence.
