Attempting to solve a problem that does not exist, Politico tries to resolve the conflict of Presidents’ Day by simply canceling it
In its conclusion, Politico asserts we should “keep a day off to reflect on lessons of the American past,” such as George Floyd’s murder – “real history” – and ignore the holiday that includes Trump’s presidency, which is “mythological history, an invitation to arrogance and complacency.”
