Properly proved. Has structure, has flavour, has a point.
Summary
The Freedom 250 concert series, organized by a Trump-tied group to celebrate America's 250th birthday, is falling apart as more than half of its scheduled performers have dropped out. The latest artist to exit is Bret Michaels of Poison, who stated on Instagram that what was presented as a celebration of the country has become "much more divisive" than what he agreed to. This follows a pattern of performers fleeing the event shortly after the lineup was announced.
