President Donald Trump has sparked outrage today with a bold declaration against what he calls “woke holidays,” targeting Juneteenth as he urges Americans to get back to work. The statement, shared via a screenshot of his Truth Social post by RapidResponse47 on X, shows Trump’s unfiltered stance: “Too many non-working holidays in America. It is costing our country BILLIONS OF DOLLARS to keep all of these businesses closed. The workers don’t want it either! Soon we’ll end up having a holiday for every once working day of the year. It must change if we are going to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
Trump’s words, posted earlier today, cut straight to the point, dismissing Juneteenth—a federal holiday marking the end of slavery—as part of an economic burden. Liberal media is in an uproar. The Washington Post’s “Trump’s Silence on Juneteenth Sparks Outrage” highlights the dismay among Black leaders, while CNN’s “Trump’s Move to End ‘Woke Holidays’ Ignites Backlash” frames it as an assault on diversity. The New York Times ran “Juneteenth Snubbed: Trump’s Latest Jab at Progressive Values,” tying it to his rejection of Biden-era policies. AP News recalls his past recognition of the holiday, contrasting it with today’s silence, calling it a deliberate snub. On X, the reactions are a firestorm—users like Gunther Eagleman applaud “About time!” while others label it “disgraceful.”
This isn’t just about one holiday—it’s a flashpoint in a broader cultural war. With anti-ICE protests escalating into violence in cities like Los Angeles and Portland, Trump’s focus on productivity over commemoration resonates with his supporters, who see it as a return to American grit. The image of his Truth Social post, stark and unapologetic, is a visual of that stance, a challenge to a nation divided. The screenshot, with its millions of views, is a cultural battleground, a moment that captures the clash between tradition and progress. For Trump, it’s a bold play; for his critics, it’s a step into dangerous territory.
