podcast
This is America 250, Country at a Crossroads.
On our podcast, Clock It, we are positioning ourselves at the intersection of culture and politics.
All the time.
This Supreme Court?
No.
Trump's recognition of the 250th is like a child's birthday party.
You know, when you're a kid and you have a birthday party, you know, first of all, you're counting your age.
You know, you're saying I'm five and three quarters, I'm six and a half, you know.
And on that day, it's ice cream and you're just celebrating that day.
And it's just wonderful and you get lots of presents and it's great.
When you get older and you have a birthday, like some of us, let's say you have a 50th birthday.
On that day, you're kind of celebrating the whole thing.
You're thinking about all the experiences that brought you to that moment.
There may be people there from across the arc of your life who are celebrating with you.
Sometimes you don't even want to have a big party.
You want to kind of reflect like it's a whole thing.
It's about the whole you.
Trump is not capable of that.
And to celebrate a country's 250th anniversary, to just celebrate, let's say, the Declaration one day, or one year, 1776, and not celebrate the entire arc of the country,
is childish.
