Two fireworks importers will donate $750,000 in equipment and personnel to the president's Fourth of July military parade.

Supporters of US President Donald Trump gather in front of the White House in Washington, DC, on July 3, 2019.The founders of Phantom Fireworks, one of the two companies President Donald Trump announced would contribute pyrotechnics to his Fourth of July military parade, are registered Democrats and have donated heavily to Democratic candidates and committees, aB.J. Alan Company, which transacts as Phantom Fireworks, was founded in 1977 by Bruce Zoldan, according to the company's website.

Their business sits on a 17-acre complex near to the central business district of Youngstown, Ohio, and employs around 350 people during the industry's peak, seasonal months. Phantom is the largest consumer fireworks seller in the country, with 79 consumer retail showrooms set up in 15 states and over 1,500 temporary outlets open seasonally in 17 states.

On Saturday, Phantom and other importers were granted a much-needed reprieve: as talks between the U.S. and China thawed on the sidelines of the G-20 summit in Japan, Trump announced he would hold off on imposing the new tariffs.

Generous. Dem's supporting tRump? Unimaginable.

That is pathetic that you try to turn this into party politics. This is not about TRUMP. This is about our Country! You doing crap journalism like this is why we despise Media today. It should not matter who is Dem or Rep today.

I suppose it’s good advertising

Why would you be surprised? You don't think Democrats are patriotic? You don't think that the men and women in those military vehicles are registered Democrats too? Get a life.

Oh FFS , it's still graft, corruption, kick-backs, back room dealing.

So it’s not really Trump’s parade then. It is AMERICA’s July4th parade!

The quid pro quo was not for the campaign but for removing fireworks from Chinese tariffs.

Some Democrats care about July 4.

Just covering their bets

Best president in a long time Trump 2020!!!

Shun them! AAAAAARRRRRGH !!

They’re smart and don’t want tariffs...so they pulled a rope-a-dope.

I’m not gonna waste my time by reading this article, but I hope it mentions that the fireworks donors have been lobbying Trump to ease the tariffs on China.

It’s just fireworks not an endorsement of the President. Good lord🙄

Don’t understand why democrats and liberals hate the idea of military parades and tanks. Oh wait.
