Ohio Lawmakers Roasted for Effort to Make Trump's Birthday 'President Donald J. Trump Day'

Even before losing his bid for a second term and amplifying lies that resulted in a deadly siege on the U.S. Capitol in hopes of overturning the 2020 election, former President Donald Trump was a historically unpopular President.

He lost the popular vote in 2016 by millions of votes, only ascending to victory thanks to the electoral college. Over the course of his term, Trump's average approval rating never rose above 50 percent. In 2020, he once again lost the popular vote by millions, along with the electoral college vote.


Nevertheless, Trump's supporters still continue to enshrine him as a political hero of the right.

Now, two lawmakers in Ohio—which Trump won in 2020—are looking to honor the former President with a statewide holiday.

Republican State Representatives Reggie Stoltzfus and Jon Cross proposed legislation making June 14 "President Donald J. Trump Day."

The pair wrote in a memo to their colleagues:

"Let's show the 3,154,834 Ohio voters (a record and historic number of votes received for President in Ohio) who cast their ballot to re-elect Donald J. Trump that we as a legislature recognize the accomplishments of his administration and that the Ohio House believes it is imperative we set aside a day to celebrate one of the greatest presidents in American history."

In addition to being Trump's birthday, June 14 is also Flag Day, which celebrates the adoption of the first American flag on June 14, 1777.

While Trump's supporters would likely embrace the idea, his critics thought it was absurd.





Some thought of other days to "honor" the former President's legacy.




Trump's presidency was, however, historic. He became the first President ever to be impeached more than once during his term. With 10 House Republicans voting in favor of his impeachment, Trump holds the distinction of spurring the most bipartisan presidential impeachment in American history.

AOC Saves The Day By Giving Bronx Middle School Group A Tour Of The Capitol Amid Shutdown

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had people cheering after she stepped in to act as tour guide after a group of middle schoolers from the Bronx pulled up to the Capitol hours after the U.S. government officially shut down.

The federal government shut down early Wednesday after the White House and Congress failed to reach an agreement on federal spending. While Senate Democrats are in the minority, they hold enough seats to filibuster and are insisting that Republicans agree to extend federal subsidies for people insured under the Affordable Care Act.

GOP Lawmaker Sparks Outrage After Calling For Dem Rep. To Be Executed For Urging People To Protest Trump

On Wednesday, September 25, an Arizona MAGA Republican state Representative publicly called for the execution of Washington Democratic Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal because she urged anyone displeased with MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's job performance to exercise their First Amendment right to free speech and to protest.

Apparently, urging citizens to make their voices heard was a step too far for Arizona state GOP Representative John Gillette, who responded to a clip edited out of a longer video by right-wing account The Patriot Oasis (TPO). A quick scan through Gillette's X account media posts will reveal his political leanings.

There used to be a time where politics did not have to come into every room or be a part of every conversation. But in a world with President Trump and MAGA, it's not as simple as being Red, Blue, or Green anymore.

Now, the sociopolitical climate is dangerous for many people and still very stress-inducing for others. It's important to surround ourselves with people who make us feel safe and seen—and unfortunately, that might mean cutting out people who have "different beliefs" than we do.
