Local time on May 5, U.S. President Donald Trump posted on the social media platform "Truth Social", announcing that May 8 would be designated as the United States "Victory in World War II Day" and November 11 as the "Victory in World War I Day".
Trump wrote, "America won both world wars but never boasts about it, while other countries are always taking credit!"
Trump pointed out that although the war might have ended eventually without America, the world order would have been completely different. He seemed dissatisfied with America's "absence" in celebrating the defeat of fascism: "America's global allies are celebrating our victory in World War II, but the only country not celebrating is America — and the victory was entirely due to us!"
However, Trump emphasized that although these two days would be designated as national commemorative days, there would be no holidays: "America already has too many holidays; workdays are almost insufficient."
"America's global allies are celebrating our victory in World War II, but the only country not celebrating is America — and the victory was entirely due to us." Classic right there! It's a sentence that can leave people speechless! [Tired]
