President Donald Trump will speak at the Salute to America 250 Celebration and Fireworks at the Washington Monument. The president announced the July 4th celebration last month, saying that the event "will honor our Country's People, Spirit, Strength, Resolve, and Triumphs." He added that "Military Bands, Orchestras, and Ceremonial Units will perform Patriotic Melodies and American Classics." This week, President Trump stated, "The Fourth of July Airshow, over Washington, D.C., will be the biggest, by far, in the History of the United States of America," and that "Hundreds of Planes, of different types, sizes, and speeds, will be on display." The fireworks display is scheduled to release over 850,000 fireworks from ten sites, and the show is expected to run for 40 minutes. |
