President Trump has credited his Salute to America Fourth of July celebration with a big spike in recruitment for the U.S. military, claiming he has already heard about a lot of people calling in. We had a phenomenal crowd last night, and it was a fantastic evening for our country, Trump told reporters gathered on the South Lawn of the White House on Friday. Youre going to have a lot of people being recruited, I think, based on that. We're going to have a lot ofa lot of people joining our military, he said. Noting that the military has a hard time getting people due to job numbers, Trump predicted that youre going to see a big spike. I've already heard ita lot of people calling in. No place like our military. I think we showed that last night. At Trumps insistence, the Fourth of July celebration featured tanks and fighter planes, and the president urged young people in the crowd to join the military, at one point telling them to make a great statement in life.

That would probably be the only thing that would finally get those types to ditch their support for him. No way they would ever make it through the first week of basic training.
