Hold the date, mofo
Trump thinks he invented the 4th of July as a National Event. Is being told otherwise with varying degrees of sarcasm.
HOLD THE DATE! We will be having one of the biggest gatherings in the history of Washington, D.C., on July 4th. It will be called “A Salute To America” and will be held at the Lincoln Memorial. Major fireworks display, entertainment and an address by your favorite President, me!

People are finding “HOLD THE DATE!” particularly hilarious since it’s a federal holiday and has been ever since none of us are old enough to remember when.
Is he … is he taking credit for inventing the 4th of July? https://t.co/fZRsVF13Oe

Deluded DC area man believes he invented 4th of July celebration

No, Trump isn’t planning anything for 4th of July. He’s just trying to take credit for the same fireworks show they’ve had in DC for over 100 years.

And he refers to himself as our favorite president – in which universe is he living?
He wouldn’t be the favourite president if he were the only president on the face of the planet.
Ha. Whenever I ring my parent’s house and my stepdad answers the phone, he tells my mum “It’s your favourite daughter”. To which she replies “Well, I only have one daughter”.
I love that Trump not only uses the phrase “your favourite president” but then is also simultaneously so insecure and arrogant to add “me!” just in case people didn’t get it. Also, I imagine him saying it in an increasingly high-pitched voice. If you can ignore the evil, he’s quite entertaining sometimes.
Catwhisperer, my parents always referred to me as their favorite daughter, too…when they were talking to me. They said the same thing to each of my sisters when they were talking to them.
We call our daughter “Our favourite daughter” too; again, it’s because we only have the one. We don’t have a favourite son. We have a favourite eldest son, and a favourite second son, and a favourite eldest twin and a favourite youngest son, of course.
How far gone in dementia is your president, anyway? What did he hear from Faux News which convinced him that he had invented a traditional holiday?
It’s so hard to tell, when he’s so innately NotClever as well as far gone in dementia. It’s difficult to pick the two apart.
