Agreed: Veterans Day – Is Important, Don’t Change It.

I can’t even pretend like this is a good idea. Ugh. President Donald Trump wants to rename Veterans Day, November 11 to Victory for World War I. He wants to recognize a new holiday on May 8 to Victory in World War II Day. We think these changes are colossally bad ideas. We think if Trump polled these ideas he would find that the public is 80/20 against splitting up the date.

President Trump is 100% wrong and the public would be right. Here is what Trump said from the Washington Examiner:

President Donald Trump announced on Thursday night that he is renaming Veterans Day to “Victory Day for World War I” and renaming May 8, known as V-E Day, as “Victory Day for World War II.”

Trump did not issue an executive order immediately following the announcement, though he could do so later on Friday.

Y’all know that I am a rabid Trumpette! Four square behind him. He does occasionally need a mute button. He comes up with fine ideas when he is spit balling, but this is not one...

No, it's not.

He also has people willing to talk him down off the ledge that he listens to when he tosses this stuff out, so hopefully it dies a quick, quiet death.
