The problem is Americans were born on third base and most think they hit a triple... They didn't. Americans need to appreciate what we have. Including Trump.

I spent America's 200 birthday overseas while in service to my country. It will be nice to be home for the 250th. You liberals can continue to complain about the country that has provided massive amounts of blood and treasure for other nations in need and also has been a beacon of hope and freedom for the rest of the world, and provided you with opportunities for a great life, while we patriots celebrate the greatest country the planet has ever known! Yes America was not always perfect but perfection is a childlike illusion. The measure of a nation is how it addressed it's problems. You can jump up and down and complain to fill your day and draw attention to yourself but the bottom line is that you haven't left like a lot of you promised you would. There are planes and ships with space available every day. Yes there are crowds at the ports but that is because of all of the people trying to get in to the country you shamelessly vilify. Put down your politics to at least celebrate the things we have in common and the great accomplishments of America. If your knee jerk reaction is that there is nothing great to celebrate than you are blinded by politics and hate and should be ashamed. To every American HAPPY 250TH BIRTHDAY!🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

He is not leaving a mark. He is making it his home. He has no intention to leave it.

@chadplays3086He has to do all of these commemorations to himself because after he's gone nobody is going to remember him.
@DannyBinArizonaMusic artists should stick to playing their music not politics

@AgingStudentGuy looks like a character from the grinch movie.😂
@moonbeam077vanderbilt7Why do they all look like Lizard People?
@RickAucoinDON'T DO IT, THIS MUST STOP AND NOW. STOP DEGRADING AMERICA WITH THE DEVIL, OUR MONEY SAY IN GOD WE TRUST NOT MAN. THIS GOVERNMENT HAS PUT A DARK CLOUD OVER OUR NATION, REPENT AND SURRENDER YOUR FLESHLY WAY'S TO GOD.

@euniceransfer7873Trumps ego is hilarious. Hes verry insecure
@MichaelLawrence-d6g250.00 is not going to be viable because his face it looks very ugly and dumb Trump specially that is not going to work no other countries that everywhere from around the world will not going to be accepted that of a trump his face because it's not that very valuable it's not that priceless know anywhere around the world country we're not going to upset that are Donald Trump his money $250 it's not going to work
@rosephoenix4634Mail every one one of these bills. Offset the increase in gas.😊
@Robert-f4y1eI can’t wait till we are forced to wear his face on our chest. I’ll be so proud on that day.
@Jarvisc12Yeah, no, this sad country called America does not deserve any celebration at this moment. Because of the orange demon, we are a global laughingstock, an embarrassment, and do not deserve to be jovial for this country. I WILL NOT celebrate this country when it has brought so much harm to its citizens and to other countries.
@genbunin5376Sinister thumbnail 😈
@timothyr23I wouldn't have anything that has his nasty face or name on it. He's making the Capitol trashy.
@waxychicohioThe orange menace, his lawyers, his security team, etc. should be in jail for destroying the White House and the White House garden, getting rid of pennies, their $250 bill scam, stealing Snap benefits, shutting down the government, sending Ice agents to kill people, sending people to El Salvador for crimes that never happened, letting the former USA Network stars who committed tax fraud and other crimes and other criminals out of jail, lying about helping people in Los Angeles get everything rebuilt after the fires that shouldn't have happened, cyber bullying, and other crimes. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
@shaliseshaw9385Well... we can all just say fuq it and wait for the 300 year anniversary... as usual, trump fuqed it all up.
@John77JayBessent supports a party that would not allow his gay marriage nor his parenthood.
@THEKNOW11Stroke-face is a little confused.
@PeterKrug-c8y😂 can anyone tell him no 😂😂
@msmatt9609A fight at the White House.... what an embarrassment to this country😢😢
@pjc-nov59Go ahead let Trump print the 250.00 bill, but send one to every tax paying American so we can celebrate it also.
@ScorchingSands-lv1cwDj Gio sez: 🤧/🙄/😆.....that pathetical🤡display of imbecillic-baf00n-jakA$$-- bessent shows ya'll EVERYTHING that's morally(backwards)WR0NG💲C0RRUPT in LIEahtollah💩 trumpiez'🤡world
@GeoMart-v4z5zTrump reminds me of Biff Tannen as the villain from Back to the future Part 2 when comes to his image everywhere 😂 hahaha
@skeletonmandiecastcollectorWhat a creepy dude
@rensinclair4218AS USUAL - everything and everyone Trump touches turns to rubble! His capacity for stupidity is boundless!
@Htruman-u7zHis face on a 250 dollar bill when people cant keep a 5 dollar in their pockets?? Freaking joke 😂😂😂 bring the penny back and put his face on the tail side of it😮😮😮
@bubbal2570I think Lindsay Graham in drag singing 'Hard Hearted Hannah, the Vamp of Savannah' would be a good musical act. Then Melania could do mud wrestling with Clarence Thomas's wife. The president could ride around the stage in circles on a teeny little bike while wearing a clown suit. To top things off, a trained seal act and some perky poodle doing tricks would certainly be appropriate for this crappy event.
@stevenbrown6277When Trump debases a black women reporter and says she knows dirt he doesn’t, it should be noted he knows how to declass the country with his tacky trashy ideas and (renovations!?). It’s really pathetic we the people are letting this piece of…… destroy OUR country.
@AnnBrickDonald is obviously soulfully dead, why else does he want his name associated with death. Wants his name on the Kennedy Ctr, now on a monetary bill along with other associations usually assigned after one’s death. Think Donald knows in his demise, congress would not assign his name to many artifacts, monuments, or tender, so he wants to do it himself.
@ebayer-v3oAll trump can give america is to leave the white house and go to the big house behind bars. Taking his cabinet too.
@Dc2148-p1cIts good Trump is healthy so secret service doesnt have to keep taking a sick guy to doctor.
@KevinSchramm-b6mTrump will have to pay people to attend his stupid rally.
