Donald Trump has suggested a year-long celebration of the United States semi-quincentennial, which would celebrate 250 years since independence in 2026.
In a policy video, Trump promoted the event called "Salute to America 250." It proposes a "Great American State Fair" with pavilions representing all 50 states, nationwide high school sporting competitions, and a "National Garden of American Heroes" with statues of historical figures.
Donald Trump highlighted his desire to throw the United States the "most spectacular" birthday party in his policy video, according to a report from Politico.
The ex-POTUS has long focused on this patriotic and beautifully prepared spectacle. During his first speech to US Congress, he underlined the importance of the forthcoming 250th anniversary of the United States and the need to celebrate the nation's origins.
Donald Trump established the 1776 Commission to promote American history and values throughout his administration.
