Trump vows to “bring Columbus back from ashes in one day” to slam the Democrats for “destroying” the legacy of explorers

Donald Trump announced on Sunday that he would “recover Columbus from the ashes”, and his support for the controversial holiday doubled in recognition of explorer Christopher Columbus. “The Democrats do their best to destroy Christopher Columbus, his reputation and all the Italians who loved him. They tore his statue apart from 'wake' and even worse, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, and you'll be happy to know that Christopher will do a lot of domination under the circumstances of Columbus under many rule,” Trump added. While Columbus Day remains a federally recognized holiday, progressive critics have pushed the days of Indigenous peoples to replace it, citing Columbus’ role in abuse of Native American tribes. Former President Joe Biden, although it was the first official anniversary to mark Indigenous Peoples Day in 2021, also continued to recognize Columbus Day during his presidency in Washington, D.C. Columbus Day has been a national holiday since 1937, after vigorous lobbying efforts in groups such as the Knights of Columbus.
