Well, #Socialites, it looks like Donald Trump might be stepping in to save the day – or at least, his version of it! With the Freedom 250 Festival, celebrating America’s 250th anniversary, facing a mass exodus of artists, Trump is throwing his hat in the ring, even calling himself ‘THE GOAT’ and eyeing a potential MAGA rally takeover.
The festival, slated to run from June 25 to July 10 on the National Mall in Washington D.C., initially boasted a lineup including Flo Rida, The Commodores, Vanilla Ice, and more. However, by May 30, over half the artists had reportedly backed out, despite organizers insisting the event is ‘inherently nonpolitical.’
Trump’s ‘GOAT’ Declaration and Rally Plans
Taking to Truth Social, Trump didn’t hold back. He expressed understanding for artists getting ‘the yips’ and proposed he himself could be the main attraction. He declared himself ‘THE GOAT’ – the Greatest Of All Time – and the ‘Number One Attraction anywhere in the World.’
He wrote, ‘I am thinking about bringing the Number One Attraction anywhere in the World… DONALD J. TRUMP, to take the place of these highly paid, Third Rate “Artists,” and give a major speech, rallying the Country forward like I have done ever since being President!’
A ‘MAGA Rally’ Instead?
In a follow-up post, Trump suggested canceling the festival altogether and instead hosting a ‘GIANT MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN RALLY’ for the 250th anniversary. He criticized the artists as ‘overpriced singers, who nobody wants to hear, whose music is boring, and yet who do nothing but complain.’
He instructed his representatives to explore the feasibility of an ‘AMERICA IS BACK Rally’ in Washington D.C., emphasizing, ‘Only Great Patriots invited — It will be a Wild and Beautiful Celebration of America!’
Kennedy Center Drama and Physical Exam Results
Trump also used his platform to rant about the ongoing drama surrounding the Kennedy Center. He claimed he canceled his involvement due to a ‘Highly Conflicted, Crooked Federal Judge’ who allegedly prevented him from investing his time and money to ‘MAKE THE CENTER GREAT AGAIN.’
He lamented the center’s state, calling it ‘broken, unsafe, and $busted,’ and criticized Judge Cooper and his wife, Amy Jeffress, suggesting they should be ashamed and impeached. He also boasted about his recent physical examination and cognitive test results, stating they were ‘extremely good’ and that he scored a ‘perfect 30 out of 30’ on the cognitive test, calling it ‘extreme intelligence.’
Trump concluded by advocating for mandatory high-difficulty cognitive tests for all presidential and vice-presidential candidates, suggesting Congress and the Democrats should demand it.
