Gonna push to make Juneteenth a national holiday.
Actually, I think it's a good idea if it helps him win. I'm sure it will tough for many diehard disciples to swallow, though.

I'm not saying it 100% has to be a holiday or it's an outrage, just that why would anyone really care if it is indeed made a holiday, talk about a non-story.

If you are a business owner it is another day you (may) have to pay your employees for no work. In the grand scheme it's probably not that big of a deal, but I can see some being aggravated by it being a holiday

Teachers were the biggest hold up because it doesn’t fall within the teaching year like Columbus Day. Personally I don’t care I’ll still be at work.

Exactly. Sure it really wasn't a public thing until recently but the end of slavery should be celebrated. Make it a federal holiday already.

Is the Fed gov't going to stop taking Columbus Day off, since Columbus has been cancelled?

I imagine that it's a helluva story to blacks.
And it will be a helluva story if it helps tilt the election even ever so slightly.

No, Orange Man! Please, I beg of you, don’t give me an extra day off of work in June!

98% of black people and 99% of white never heard of Juneteenth until this year. frick all this stupid shite.

Hell tag it to the Friday or Monday before/after Father's day and make Father's day a 3 day weekend. It would fit with the strong paternal nature of the effected community.

His entire 2016 campaign was a huge pander-fest.
The fact that his target was not a defined minority does NOT make his actions less of a "pander."

Before this:
Trumpkins: Juneteenth is a stupid, racist holiday!!
Trump pushes for it to be a holiday:
Trumpkins: What's the problem with it being a holiday?
Love it.

It’s inevitable so he may as well use it to his advantage

We need a June holiday.
Only problem I have with this is the name is stupid. I have no problem celebrating the end of slavery.
