One of the country with the least amount of paid vacation in the world. And that's the hill he decides to climb on. He excels at making himself look increasingly moronic.

The only reason they don't have a lower amount of mandatory paid vacation is because it is impossible to go below 0.

I doubt he cares about holidays at all, but he very much cares about removing a holiday that is specifically relevant to not white people.

I was taking with a family member yesterday and said I'd be shocked if Juneteenth is still a holiday next year.

America produces way more than enough to allow everyone to live comfortably and enjoy life. But the fruits of all that extra productivity is being hoarded by a tiny portion of the population while workers are being increasingly stretched and strained to extract as much value from then as possible while paying them as least as possible.

The scarcity of wealth and the need to always work harder and longer hours to barely make it is an illusion maintained to exploit the workers.

And the fact he posted this on Juneteenth is just coincidence, right?

King Cuck says no more holidays while golfing his presidency away.

It would be fun to make Trump work a job for 90 days. Nothing major. Maybe answering phones for a help line.

9 to 5 desk job.

Monday through Friday.

If he misses a day he has to "find a new job" and start over.

The dude would fucking CRACK like he was being waterboarded!

Remember back in the middle ages, when everyone was sporting an axe and knew where the boss's house was?

They also had more days off back then, more time to sharpen that axe.

What a piece of shit post. He's using the date to signal solidarity to his racist voters.

Go play golf and change your diaper grandpa, you’re getting crabby.

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

Didn't he just create like two new holidays?
