Description

Trump's massive America 250 celebration was supposed to be a patriotic showcase, but it quickly descended into chaos. Sam Stein and Bill Kristol give their takes on the biggest failures of the day, from Patriot Front's march through Washington, D.C. and Republicans' attempts to blame the left, to Doug Burgum's refusal to clearly condemn neo-Nazis, hours-long security delays, thunderstorms, and a celebration that seemed designed more to glorify Donald Trump than the country itself.

No one forced them to wait 4 hours in a storm. They chose to wait. If they are that stupid that's what happens. They will never learn.

The fact that Burgum won't call them out speaks volumes about who these faketriot front cowards really are connected to.
