President Trump will visit Mount Rushmore for July Fourth celebrations despite criticism from Native Americans for celebrating U.S. independence in an area that is sacred to them

WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump will rail against a “left wing mob” for seeking to “tear down” U.S. history during a visit to Mount Rushmore on Friday amid concerns over holding a large gathering during a pandemic and criticism from Native Americans.

“On the anniversary of America’s founding, the president will tell the truth about America’s history and he will tell the truth about those trying to tear it down and divide our country,” the official said. The Democratic National Committee tweeted at one point that Trump had disrespected Native Americans and that his South Dakota trip was “glorifying white supremacy.” It later deleted the tweet.

Some 7,500 people are expected to attend the outdoor event. Masks will be available but are not required. Native Americans, who reportedly plan to protest during the trip, have criticized Trump’s visit for increasing the risk of spreading the virus and for celebrating U.S. independence in an area that is sacred to them.

Native Americans should fight us for it

God bless our President

Good for him!!

Lying turd.

A (failed) rally in Tulsa the day after Juneteenth. An 'event' at Six Grandfathers to celebrate the birth of a nation that did not include Native Americans... It is just me, or is this president a White Supremacist?

Cupid stunt

🤬🤬🤬🤬😭👊👊👊

Mount Rushmore is sacred to all Americans and the President of the United States most certainly has the right to celebrate the 4th of July there. It sure would be nice if everyone would stop complaining and whining for a day and enjoy the moment. 🙄

He doesn’t give a shit.

Why is that heads states, who are as President Kennedy stated, servant of the people, NOT LISTENING TO WE THE PEOPLE?

Merica

Not watching this Russian celebration

An iconic land mark. Glad he has chosen. To visit and promote it’s importance on the July 4th 2020.

Proud American!

Suddenly we are 'concerned' about 'large gatherings'? Where was for the past month?

Would really upset him if he found them all to be wearing masks

♾🥱👌🤪👌 tosses Kids into Cages to punish them for not being Americans...
