President Donald Trump has taken an extraordinary step in his efforts to turn his birthday into a national celebration, with the National Park Service revealing that on June 14, his birthday, admission to national parks will be free for U.S. citizens.

In addition, Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth have been removed from the schedule of free park admission days, despite both being federally recognized holidays.

his birthday isn't and won't be, but the day he dies will be celebrated for generations

[-] Bakkoda@lemmy.world 9 points 6 hours ago

Fuck a child day? Rape someone day? Steal from children's charity Day?

[-] BlameTheAntifa@lemmy.world 57 points 13 hours ago

[-] IndridCold@lemmy.ca 11 points 6 hours ago

Weirdos do weird things.

[-] rustydrd@sh.itjust.works 11 points 10 hours ago

This reminds me that many history-related Wikipedia articles like this one don't have an English version yet. Might be a nice project in anticipation of Trump's b-day.

[-] zbyte64@awful.systems 34 points 13 hours ago

Classic abuser move. Take away two free days and then give us back one and makes sure we know it's from him cuz he put his name all over it.

[-] ThePantser@sh.itjust.works 114 points 16 hours ago

Instead it will be his death day that will be globally celebrated.

here we go again with Americans thinking they are the fucking bellybutton of the universe.. there are worse people on the planet than Donald Trump, his death won’t be celebrated “globally

[-] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 hours ago

You’re happy he’s alive?

[-] ironhydroxide@sh.itjust.works 32 points 16 hours ago

I will personally celebrate with the most expensive whiskey I can find on this day.

Most expensive is usually a bad decision. The most expensive ones been aged long is, and eventually a lot of the character goes away and it starts to taste more woody.

I go with whatever the f*** tastes the best.

I'm trying to drink less but yeah I should go get a good bottle just to celebrate the deaths of bad people

[-] cmbabul@lemmy.world 11 points 14 hours ago

Let's make a bar date!

His death is probably going to be the final spark for civil war

[-] atx_aquarian@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago

The circumstances seem important, don't they? Like, it's different if he nods off and shits himself one last time, surrounded by everyone in the Cabinet Room vs. if something external visibly happens to him. I guess either way the wolves will try to spin it to light that spark they want.

[-] Gates9@sh.itjust.works 8 points 15 hours ago

JD Vance does seem a lot like Nick Offerman’s character in “Civil War”

There will be one trump anniversary I'll celebrate, and it hasn't happened yet.

[-] dellish@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

When he dies in his sleep during a cabinet meeting?

[-] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 3 points 9 hours ago

when he shits his pants on live TV?

[-] BassTurd@lemmy.world 16 points 16 hours ago

I was just discussing the event the other day, and said when it happens I will buy a flag pole, an American flag, and raise it to full staff. It will be up as long as the half staff order is active, then I will take it down and sell it or trash it. There will be zero ambiguity in my actions.

[-] Mad__vegan@lemmy.world 7 points 15 hours ago

How can you tell if someone is a racist narcissist...

[-] xenomor@lemmy.world 6 points 16 hours ago

Can we just fast forward to the part where we find out where they buried him so I can go relieve myself there?

[-] stretch2m@infosec.pub 1 points 10 hours ago

They better keep it secret or it will be stained more yellow than his fat fucking face.

[-] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 6 points 16 hours ago

Tell you what, let’s meet in the middle and make your death day a holiday. So come on now, hurry up so we can celebrate it in 2026.

[-] hddsx@lemmy.ca 6 points 16 hours ago

His birthday is flag day. No need to make it Trump Day

[-] Doomsider@lemmy.world 3 points 15 hours ago

We should turn his birthday into National Greed Day. A day to recognize how money has corrupted government!

[-] lennee@lemmy.world 3 points 16 hours ago
[-] DaMummy@lemmy.world 2 points 16 hours ago

We already celebrate Hitler birthday though.

[-] TomMasz@lemmy.world 1 points 15 hours ago

For him, this is not at all weird. It fits perfectly with his narcissistic personality.
