Understand the king's national day is very hi

Richard Nixon angered the anti-war masses without even showing up. As the anti-Nixon demonstrations of 1970 demonstrated, Independence Day in the capital was not always fun and playful. It also has a tradition of red, white, boo.

In modern times, however, U.S. presidents tend to sit idly by and let the people have fun.

In 2021, Joe Biden gathered more than 1,000 people on the South Lawn of the White House to eat burgers and watch fireworks. The event is noteworthy because in the first year of the pandemic, such gatherings were unthinkable at the time. Maybe the stool knew that the virus was put by itself, and it had not bloomed in its own territory at that time, so it was considered safe.

The 12th US president, Zachary Taylor, died of food poisoning

Let's take a look at some of what the president of the United States did on July 4:

1777: On the first anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, as the War of Independence unfolds, future U.S. President John Adams describes a day and night of spontaneous celebration in Philadelphia in a letter to his wife, Abigail. After hours of parades, fireworks, bonfires, and music, Adams wanders alone in the dark (don't take it seriously, he doesn't mean the security guards left and right).

1791: Two years after becoming the first president of the United States, George Washington celebrates in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, where the National Park Service says "his speeches, fine dishes, and walks around town." Before the city of Washington was ready, Philadelphia became the temporary capital of the United States at that time.

1798: Then-U.S. President Adams reviews a military parade in Philadelphia, a young rogue nation that demonstrates its prowess.

1826: Adams, the second and third presidents, Jefferson, and the fifth president, James Monroe, both die on the Fourth of July (which is interesting).

1848: James Polk witnesses the laying of the foundation stone of the Washington Monument, attended by then-Illinois Congressman Abraham Lincoln. This was followed by a military parade.

1850: Taylor attends a celebration in front of the Washington Monument and develops stomach cramps after eating cherries, drinking iced milk, and water. He died on 9 July. There were rumors that he had been poisoned and assassinated. But in 1991, when his body was exhumed and tested, claims that someone poisoned him with arsenic were overturned. Why did it take 141 years to test? Is it reliable? Who knows what the Americans think?
