About This Trend

Veterans Day is a federal holiday in the United States observed on November 11, originally established as Armistice Day to commemorate the end of World War I. It honors all U.S. military veterans who have served in the Armed Forces.

The holiday is currently trending due to President Donald Trump's announcement to rename it 'Victory Day for World War I' and designate May 8 as 'Victory Day for World War II'. This proposal has sparked widespread debate and reactions across social media, with some supporting the change as a way to celebrate historical U.S. victories, while others criticize it for altering a tradition meant to honor all veterans. .
