Music Heavyweights Join Freedom 250 Great American State Fair Lineup, Playing on National Mall

Donald Trump’s Freedom 250 celebration has announced its musical performers, led by longtime MAGA supporter Vanilla Ice , alongside other veteran acts including Milli Vanilli and C+C Music Factory.

Other musicians playing the 16-date Great American State Fair range back to the 1970s and through the mid-2010s. This includes country mainstay Martina McBride, funk groups The Commodores and Morris Day & The Time, Bret Michaels of glam metal band Poison, one-hit wonder rapper Young MC, and the most contemporary act, Flo Rida.

Shockingly, Trump’s pal Kid Rock isn’t currently billed for these shows, but maybe he’s among the “many more” acts teased in the announcement below.
