Trump Suggests Renaming Veterans Day to “Victory Day” Former President Donald Trump proposed renaming Veterans Day to “Victory Day for World War I,” saying Americans should “start celebrating our victories again.” Posting on Truth Social, Trump argued the U.S. won both World Wars but doesn’t properly honor those achievements due to poor leadership. He also suggested renaming Victory in Europe Day (May 8) to “Victory in World War II Day,” claiming the U.S. did more than any other nation to secure victory. Critics point out this may stir international backlash, especially from Russia, which lost tens of millions in the conflict. Veterans Day, originally Armistice Day, was created to honor the end of WWI but was expanded in the 1950s to recognize all American veterans. It’s now a solemn day of remembrance, not just celebration
