Despite the rain, and the media forecasts, and at risk of personal injury ftom the tolerant left, thousands of people showed up for Independence Day with President Trump. Thursday was again Trump Day, when the media was again proven wrong, across the board.
Seriously, wouldn't you want to have a military parade on the 4th? Maybe in revisionist history, children will be told that the King of England sat down for tea and crumpets with the colonials, and granted them leave from paying taxes, and gifted them a nation he did not own.
Remember to celebrate and protect independence daily
There seems to be an ever increasing cadre of those who equate independence with oppression. They willingly choose dependence, and believe that the fruits of our labor are ill gotten gains which rightfully belong to them.

That is because those who believe that have never actually suffered real oppression.

As children, we depended on our parents. The left believes that as we transition to adulthood, the government should assume that parental role, perpetuating our dependence. It is the philosophy of the left that to grant us independence, to leave us to our own resources, to allow us to explore the possibilities and reach our full potential, is tantamount to neglect and thus oppression.
Of course this is the belief of the "rank and file" left. Their leadership has much more sinister intentions.

My friend and sometimes mentor, Evan Sayet, calls them Big "L" Leftists and small "l" leftists.
The small "l" leftists are the useful idiots. The followers. The ones who obediently regurgitate the propaganda and protest and march and infest social media. For the most part they have the ideological and political IQ of a tree stump.
The Big "L" leftists are never out front. They lead from the rear and remain in the shadows. They are well schooled in Marx, Lenin, Che, Mao, Castro, Debs, Alinsky and W.E.B. DuBois.

I have not understood your hate of trees until I started traveling. Most of California, to get a tree to grow, it has to be very intentional. In Virginia and North Carolina it look like if did not pave it or plow it that day, a tree is trying to grow there. Humidity seems to change the equation.
