Perhaps Donald Trump should sign an executive order declaring June 14 (his birthday) to be National Racial Animus Day.
Donald Trump just removed Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth from the list of free entry days at national parks.
They are being replaced with Trump’s birthday.

If you wonder whether these comparisons of Trump to Nazis go too far, remember that Hitler was present in the German political scene long before he created the first death camp
And at that point, he was calling Jews “vermin”
Which-of course-is not dissimilar from Trump calling Somalis “garbage”
