President Trump is scheduled to speak around 9 p.m. Eastern. Now I'll be speaking. I'll be very proudly speaking as we ring in our 250th year with the largest fireworks display in world history, 10 times larger than any that we've ever done in Washington or in the United States. The evening culminates with what's being called the largest fireworks display in history. You can catch special coverage of the Salute to America celebrations starting at 7 p.m. here on NTD.
