President Donald Trump criticized the number of non-working holidays in the US on Juneteenth, a federal holiday, calling it 'too many'. He didn't specify how many holidays he thinks are too many, but his criticism suggests he believes some holidays do not serve important national interests. The post was made just days after President Biden announced plans to create two new federal holidays honoring Juneteenth and Martin Luther King Jr. Trump's comments have sparked debate about the role of holidays in American culture and their impact on the economy.
