I suppose some people object to Trump's plans because we can learn from history. He will not speak about the history, the traditions, the accomplishments of this country. He will not speak about all the groups of people who made this country great. He will talk about himself. He will tell us all the GREAT things he has done and how everyone is picking on him, and he will probably throw in "No collusion." It would be nice if he could, for once, act like the president of the whole country, speaking to everyone. But he won't. He make it all about himself, and he will speak to his base. It will be a campaign speech, and have nothing to do with real patriotism.

Hey, maybe his background will be Russian ships in the background....
This is the most ridiculous thing to fight about. People seem to be "mind reading" what will happen and then telling us why Orange Man Bad. I'm especially amused by this :

If you were paying attention you'd know all Trump does is talk about the history, traditions and accomplishments of this country. He's the USA's biggest cheerleader and takes every opportunity to recognize individuals who've contributed to it. Are you too busy tearing down statues to actually listen to him?
I've been paying attention. I'm not predicting the future or reading his mind; I'm just telling you what has happened in the past. And as we know, past behavior is a good predictor of future behavior. But hey, he could stick to the script. He could come up with some discipline, and actually say something that unites the country in patriotism. It could happen. I'm not holding my breath, but it could happen.

PS: I've never torn down a statue.
Yeah, Trump giving a short non-partisan speech is like the two Irish guys walking past a bar. Hey, it could happen.
Why do democrats care where Trump decides to give a July 4th public address ? Do they think they own the public square ?
I don't think anyone cares, and nor will hardly anyone watch him give a speech. People have better things to do on 4th of July than listen to his campaign BS.

Yeah, it'll be great, I'm sure. His so called address will go off the rails and disintegrate into the usual self absorbed whining about the Witch Hunt, the Fake News, the democrats, and any other of his petty grievances du jour he thinks to throw in. It'll be all about him, like it always is.
I think you're right.. so much for celebrating America. Celebrations that day have always existed, he just wants attention to be on him. A real celebration would be ONE day having nothing to do with him.
He is the President..talking to the citizens on a national holiday is hardly scandalous..
He seeks to talk to the people..why do libs have an issue with that?
Because he just wants to be the center of attention, it has nothing to do with the country. It will be another rant about how he feels unjustly treated and making fun of those he dislikes. How American.
