U.S. President Donald #Trump gives speech at Mount Rushmore to celebrate Independence Day
U.S. President Donald Trump has given a speech at Mount Rushmore to celebrate the country’s #IndependenceDay, marked on July 4. Hours before the celebration, over a dozen protesters were arrested for blocking the road to the monument. In his speech, Trump paid tribute to the country’s forefathers and responded to criticism for holding the event after the country has seen rising unrest in the past month — due to African American GeorgeFloyd’s death and increasing #coronavirus infections.
