The right-wing Daily Wire is trying to throw the Trump administration a life preserver by begging country music stars to do the right thing and perform on the National Mall for President Donald Trumps Freedom 250 concert series.
Daily Wire writer Brad Bishop argued in his article titled, Hey Country Stars, Do The Right Thing: Perform On The National Mall Your fans will love it because they actually love their country, that country music is the perfect choice for the Trump event. He wrote:
Every week we see videos of Morgan Wallen selling out football stadiums, Ella Langley hitting the top of the charts with songs about God, Riley Green putting out conservative-coded songs like Different Round Here, and new artists like Dexter and the Moonrocks going viral through conservative Instagram reels. Country music is as hot as it has ever been not because of pink-haired commie liberals, but because of hard-working, patriotic conservatives.
Go to a country concert these days. The parking lots are chock-full of lifted trucks with Trump-Vance stickers. Inside the venues youll often find more MAGA hats than band merch. American flags everywhere, Bible verses tattooed on forearms, and not a Bud Light in sight.
When certain country stars were swept up in the Lefts cancel culture crusades, conservatives were there selling out arenas and buying their merchandise, Bishop continued. These fans have been there at every turn, as steadfast in their support of their musical icons as they are in support of their country.

America250, the nonpartisan entity created by Congress to administer the countrys semiquincentennial celebrations/events, has nothing whatsoever to do with it.
Freedom 250 is a tax exempt organization, soliciting donations. Donors who contribute at least $1 million - a tax deductible $1 million - to the 'cause' are invited to a reception hosted by Trump himself. While it's not at all uncommon for a non-profit organization to offer additional benefits to donors who give more to a major fundraising event, this being Trump, the chance that some portion of the money will find its way to his or his family coffers ain't exactly zero.
