Comment: I read letters to the editor today, that’s why I posted. It basically said…
“I dislike Trump a lot, but I believe it is perfect dishonesty to call his riot “anti-American” because nothing is more American than overthrowing your own gov’t. using violence. Google July 4th or Boston Tea Party”
Independence Day is a federal holiday in the United States commemorating the Declaration of Independence of the United States, on July 4, 1776.

So who is getting over thrown these days? Today’s present anti global influence, pro America first Trump administration? Or all the prior Anti American pro global, let’s outsource corporations administrations before Trump? I report you decide. I think the USA needs a new independence day. George Washington was right when he suggested avoiding any foreign entanglements. UK was right to recently declare independence.
