Former President Donald Trump is proposing the “most spectacular birthday party” to celebrate 250 years of American independence if he retakes the Oval Office. 
In a video released on May 31, he outlines his plans for a year-long celebration to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States of America, on July 4th, 2026—a day he hopes will be in the second year of his second term.
