To honor our country on this July 4th… And to enshrine the 250th birthday in the hearts of our nation… President Donald J. Trump is building a golf course on the site which involves cutting down the iconic cherry trees gifted by Japan in 1912. You’re welcome America.

🎤 Whisper Transcript (en) ⏱ 150s

"Trump is planning on taking the cherry blossom area and turning it into a golf course. I'm not kidding. Construction on this is due to start September 1st. He's just gonna knock these cherry blossoms down that were a gift from Japan and have been here for over a hundred years. Because we need a golf course. Another one. Taking public land where there's fishing, recreation for the people. And there's a really funny thing he's trying to do. Because in 1897, a congressional act established the East Potomac Park, this area, for the people, recreation and pleasure of the people. So they have to go in front of a judge to figure this out. But literally a congressional act has happened given the people this park to enjoy and he's going to turn it into a golf course. How do we know that? Well, he said it in this super long winded thing, which honestly I see these and I just get tired so I don't read them. Well, it takes me time. First I get overwhelmed and then whatever. Anyway, so there's a golf course there. East Potomac Golf Links, okay? It's a three par little course. He wants to take it and turn it into a 18 hole world champion golf course where we could have the tournaments. I, and we can see based on this new plan that it will take over 50 acres of public land to make this golf course. Because right now it's three courses and he wants to turn it into one single giant golf course while using public lands and destroying the cherry blossoms. I love when they just walk around with the plans out. Like they don't even have a folder where they can protect it so we don't see all this. Anyway, this is just devastating. Walking under these cherry blossoms is truly magical. If you've never done it, I mean, I guess get there before September 1st. Anyway, this is just another day in Asinine Trump land destroying more of our capital. Let me know what you think about this. Cherry's in the chat for the cherry blossoms and I'll let you know what the lawsuit says at the end of the day. Not today, I just mean like, whatever. Anyway, I'll talk to you in a little bit. Follow up more. Okay, love you, bye."
