The event is part of the 250th anniversary celebration of American independence, but the biggest fight happens to coincide with Trump’s 80th birthday.
“Our country is invited to this. It’s free,” Trump said, holding up a book of images. “This will be the greatest show on earth.”
“It’s going to be June 14th, and it’s going to be great,” Trump declared. “These are real warriors. When we talk about warriors, these are warriors.”
Trump claimed that talks were going well and declared, “I think we won,” but he also admitted that he thought discussions were going well in the past, only to have them come up short.
“We’ve had some good talks before, as you know, and all of a sudden, the next day, they’re like, they forgot what happened,” Trump said.

I hope it's the lowest rated event ever. 
May your next birthday be your last.
