Last week, Claudia Tenney from New York introduced a bill that would make Donald Trump’s birthday a federal holiday.

Why? Well, on her website, she wrote, “Born on June 14, 1946, President Donald J. Trump’s birthday coincided with Flag Day, which is observed annually and recognizes the anniversary of the adoption of the Stars and Stripes as the official US flag in 1777. This legislation would permanently codify a new federal holiday called ‘Trump’s Birthday and Flag Day’ on June 14 to honor this historic day.”
