WASHINGTON (TNND) \u2014 President Donald Trump touted what he described as a crowd of at least 45,000 people at his Great American State Fair <\/a>rally in Washington, D.C. earlier this week, while also urging supporters to attend a larger Fourth of July celebration that is slated to feature an expanded military display and patriotic festivities.<\/p>\n

In a pair of social media posts on Thursday, Trump called the rally, which was held the previous night, a great success. He said guests stayed through the end of his speech “because they loved hearing about a truly successful America.”<\/p>\n

“The crowd was incredible last night, packed to the brim,” Trump wrote on Truth Social<\/a>. “At least 45,000 people were there, with a huge television and online audience.”<\/p>\n

The White House has not independently released attendance figures for the event, and Trump’s estimate could not immediately be verified.<\/p>\n

The president also promoted a July 4 event that’s set to be held in Washington, promising what he described as the largest and most impressive military flyovers yet.<\/p>\n

“The military flyovers will be the best, EVER — the most planes, the newest planes, the fastest planes,” Trump wrote<\/a>, adding in a separate post that there will be “hundreds of Planes, of different types, sizes, and speeds.”<\/p>\n

Trump also said the event is set to start in the afternoon and wrap up just before midnight. <\/p>\n

“I will be speaking at approximately 9 P.M., preceding the Fireworks which again, like the Airshow, will be approximately ten times larger than any Fireworks in the History of our Country,” Trump wrote in a third post on Friday<\/a>. “So, if you like Airplanes and Fireworks and President Trump, be there!”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"WASHINGTON (TNND) \u2014 President Donald Trump touted what he described as a crowd of at least 45,000 people…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":729817,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[23,3,21,19,22,20,25,24],"class_list":["post-729816","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-united-states","tag-america","tag-news","tag-united-states","tag-united-states-of-america","tag-unitedstates","tag-unitedstatesofamerica","tag-us","tag-usa"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/729816","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=729816"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/729816\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/729817"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=729816"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=729816"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=729816"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
