“Dear PoPville,

I have absolutely no interest in attending or giving attention to Trump’s narcissistic and bloviating hijacked 4th of July event this year. While I try to find a spot in the city to watch fireworks every year, this time, I’d rather head to one of the surrounding towns or parks in MD or VA. Can I get some suggestions on the places with other great 4th of July events and fireworks displays?”
