In a speech at Mount Rushmore on the eve of July 4, President Donald Trump celebrated America’s heritage and echoed the values, ideals, and freedoms enshrined in the Declaration of Independence, while calling on patriots to stand up to “cancel culture” and what he called “a new far-left fascism.”
Standing before a crowd of 7,500, Trump signaled the significance of Mount Rushmore, which depicts former U.S. Presidents George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln.
