Do American's Approve Of Trump's 4th Of July Plans?

Independence Day Parade

The annual Independence Day celebrations are certainly going to look different this year with President Trump promising 2019 is going to be "the show of a lifetime". Trump is going to hold a speech from the Lincoln Memorial while there will be a military parade featuring armoured vehicles and a flyover from fighter jets.

Democrats have been quick to condemn the politicization of America's national holiday and its cost. The National Park Service is reportedly diverting almost $2.5 million to finance it. Amid the controversy, how do the U.S. public feel about the Independence Day transformation in Washington?

A Monmouth University poll found that most Americans are actually unaware of it with 80 percent saying they never heard about the event. Out of those that do, a 52 percent majority say they approve it while 34 percent disapprove.
