Trump to kick off Fourth of July celebrations with fireworks 'like few people have seen'

US President Donald Trump will kick off Fourth of July celebrations with a fireworks display "likes few people have seen" and military fly-overs at the iconic Mount Rushmore. Critics said the event was risking the spread of coronavirus in South Dakota with more than 7,500 people expected to attend. The President once suggested to South Dakota's governor he'd like to be the fifth face on the mountain but at a time of racial unease. The Rushmore event is a reminder of the President's fight to preserve symbols of history as others seek to tear down what they believe to be symbols of oppression. Image: News Corp Australia
