Twitter critics rally around some laughs under the #RainOnTrumpsParade hashtag.
By Ed Mazza
Supporters at President Donald Trump’s much-hyped celebration outside the Lincoln Memorial in Washington on Thursday got to soak up more than just the Independence Day atmosphere.
They got soaked literally by rain in the hours before the “ Salute to America” event.
The president’s critics enjoyed some schadenfreude, celebrating the weather under the umbrella of the # RainOnTrumpsParade hashtag, which trended on Twitter, as well as other hashtags:

I really appreciate George Soros paying for the weather machine to make it rain on Trump's parade.

It stopped raining at the Trump 4th of July — for about 5 minutes. Now pouring rain is back, some people are leaving, and the forecast calls for lightning and thunder.

Sad trombone for the Trump supporters who trekked to the Mall in the rain, only to realize the actual event is for rich donors. t.co

A National Park Service volunteer just told me that the tanks & military equipment are all in the closed off perimeter for the president's VIPs and that the general public on the Mall will not be able to see them.

That feeling when you’ve seen Trump’s hair from behind in the rain and you just can’t find the words.

Trump still plans to deliver remarks at his Salute to America event, despite an announcement there would be a delay in the program. Press Secretary says there has not been a bad weather call and that the president would travel the short distance to the Lincoln Memorial

For someone who is so obsessed with his image, it’s hard to imagine Trump’s reaction when he realizes that his speech was broadcast through rain-streaked glass.

In a clear sign of God’s displeasure, it has just started to rain in DC — right before Trump is supposed to give his campaign speech at his event on the National Mall.  #RainOnTrumpsParade #McCain4th #PatriotsResist

The cloud obscuring the #fourthofjuly fireworks looks like Trump’s hair. The man bends nature to his will and image.
