Why do democrats care where Trump decides to give a July 4th public address ? Do they think they own the public square ? (dollar, economic)

"An Obama event". Not a Fourth of July event.
Obama was not President at the time..Speech was about his foundation NOT an Independence Day celebration.
It clearly states that we were to break away from despots. READ IT!!! Trump loves despots and would love to be one.

Trump’s desire for a military parade reveals him as a would-be despot
Opponents can react to this in one of two ways. Mockery is the obvious response, seeing in Trump’s desire to display US tanks and rocket launchers on Pennsylvania Avenue the same transparent insecurity as the mid-life crisis neighbour who suddenly turns up with a Ferrari in the driveway.
Or we can be more sober, and regard this as just the latest and potentially most spectacular demonstration of Trump’s authoritarian instincts. Just as he has repeatedly expressed admiration for strongmen in the Vladimir Putin mode, just as he regards the machinery of the state as his personal staff – casually referring to “my justice department” or “my generals” – and just as this week he suggested that those who refuse to applaud him are “treasonous”, so this is yet more proof that Trump’s instincts are those of the autocrat. Little wonder that he wants to take the salute at the kind of military display more associated with Moscow or Pyongyang than Washington DC.
The left hates anything that puts Trump, the military, or the United States of America in a positive light. So the shrill responses on this thread, while amusing, are not unexpected.
So in your opinion we should all bow down and adore and worship this cowardly con man? well you go right ahead and watch 100 million of your tax payer dollars go to the glorification of his ego in this pointles military parade..

it makes little difference. 'i' and 'me' are always Obama's favorite speech words no matter the occasion.
