The Great American State Fair has been billed as a huge celebration of the country’s 250th anniversary.

But as the 10-day event culminating on July 4 draws near, several performers have backed out. President Donald Trump was slated to speak at the fair’s opening ceremony, but he’s now calling for it to be replaced by a political rally.

As Candice Cole reports, the growing backlash comes as Trump’s approval rating continues to slide.
