As a Iraq veteran can’t say I’m excited about this.

Veterans Day is important to honor all veterans.

Trump needs to get some people who actually know history on his staff fast! VJ Day is September 2. Memorial Day and Veterans Day are fine just the way they are.

As a youngster in the late 50s, calendars had V-E Day, V-J Day, and Armistice Day proudly noted.

This is wrong... For all the reasons everyone else has shared.

That should make all the surviving WWI vets happy. The rest of us, not so much.

I thought Veterans’ Day was to celebrate our Veterans, Independence Day for our independence and victories in war, and Memorial Day to mourn those who died for our country and lost loved ones.

I think we have enough holidays. Some of the secular ones should pull double duty!

I don’t agree with changing it. It’s a day to pay tribute to all who have served our country. Add another holiday for WW I victory if you want.

We’ll have to commemorate the end of the current war and the obliteration of the Deep State and draining of the Swamp some day.

Not sure President Trump has a day in mind of celebrating that.
Maybe some date affiliated with the Revolutionary War.

I don’t know why he thinks this is a good idea. Veterans are among his most loyal supporters.

This seems like just changing it to say you changed it. I’d support a law saying no more fed holidays until you get rid of one. Or maybe two. Juneteenth or whatever it’s called for sure.

No. All our veterans and those who gave their lives for our country deserve to be honored and remembered. WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq and so on.

This might just be Trump’s way of trolling Putin ahead of their big Victory Day and he doesn’t really mean it. I hope he doesn’t mean it.

That is not very good. We need a Veterans’ Day

It’s a bad idea, but look, he’s always free to issue an additional proclamation about Victory in WWI Day along with the usual Veterans’ Day proclamation.
