“I did something good: I made Juneteenth very famous,” Mr. Trump told The Journal. June 18, 2020 8:20 pm RL

The president is not well…

“I did something good: I made Juneteenth very famous,” Mr. Trump told The Journal. “It’s actually an important event, an important time. But nobody had ever heard of it.”

He told the paper he had asked a number of aides if they were familiar with the holiday, and none said they were. Then he asked an adviser who was with him during the interview; the adviser noted that his administration put out a statement honoring the day in 2019.

“Oh really? We put out a statement? The Trump White House put out a statement?” Mr. Trump asked. “OK, OK. Good.”
