Going into the weekend celebrating the 250th Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, Trump was facing a lot of bad news, Iran was blocking ships trying to get through the Strait of Hormuz, chocking of 2-5 of the world’s oil and one third of the world’s fertilizer transported by sea, Inflation is spiking in the US, The administration's corruption is being revealed, with reports that Trump has made a fortune in his cryptocurrency business, benefiting from insider information, Nearly a million people who have lost a total of $3.8 billion while Trump made $636 million in his cryptocurrency business, Trump diverted funds from America250 into Freedom250, misleading donors and skirting accountability rules, The Great American State Fair was poorly run and poorly attended, Trump flew to Mount Rushmore to rant about Democrats being communists, thinking this made up story is a winning theme and he continued the attacks in his talk in DC on July 4th, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum continued to promote what appears to be a made-up story about vandalism at the Reflecting Pool, Reality does appear to be reasserting itself, nonetheless.
