Trump has made attempts to assert his authority by proposing new holidays to commemorate U.S. victories in World Wars I and II. He declared November 11 and May 8 as holidays, yet mentioned they wonât involve time off for Americans. His claims overlook existing holidays and misdate significant WWII events, inviting criticism from veterans' groups. He also suggested renaming Veterans Day to 'Victory Day,' which has been met with opposition. This highlights flaws in his approach to American history and holiday structure, challenging public sentiment about holidays.
We will not be closing the Country for these two very important Holidays, November 11 and May 8, World War I and World War II, because we already have too many Holidays in America.
Some countries do have public celebrations on May 8, the day Nazi Germany surrendered to the Allies, which is commemorated less formally as V-E Day in the U.S.
