When then President Donald Trump said he made Juneteenth famous the fake news and all the biased Fact checkers went crazy trying to convince you it wasn't true.
But he did.
During the pandemic lockdown, Trump wasn't able to campaign for reelection. Finally in June of 2020, he decided it was time to go back on the campaign trail and scheduled the first rally for June 19th. Desperate to stop him, Democrats looked for a reason and discovered that June 19th was the anniversary of a terrible race massacre in Tulsa. The News Media/Democrat complex went ballistic for days finally forcing Trump to cancel the rally and in the process it made Juneteenth famous. The vast majority of Americans had never heard of it before.
Despite Democrats claiming it was always well known check every speech Barack Obama made on every June 19th of his two terms and you'll find he never mentioned Juneteenth. No other major politician did either. The White House press office always put out a statement, even under Trump, about Juneteenth, but the White House does that every year about hundreds of little know anniversaries and commemorations and they all get very little coverage.
Here's a typical fake news report from ABC trying to convince you that Juneteenth had always been famous and that they were doing a big prime time Juneteenth special. Check the record - ABC had never done a Juneteenth special before Donald Trump made it famous:
