Trump Declares His Inauguration 'National Day of Patriotic Devotion' in Proclamation Littered with Religious Buzzwords
One of Donald Trumps first acts as president was to personally issue Proclamation 9570, which designates the day of his inauguration, January 20, 2017 as National Day of Patriotic Devotion....
The proclamation begins, A new national pride stirs the American soul and inspires the American heart. We are one people, united by a common destiny and a shared purpose.
Trump announced the Day of Patriotic Devotion in order to, as the document says, strengthen our bonds to each other and to our country.
The proclamation abounds with religious language, stating that, we must maintain faith in our sacred values and heritage and that there can be no peace where people do not pray for it. It denotes the date as the year of our Lord two thousand seventeen.

it will be National Dear Leader Day.
There will be a parade of all the young women (only the "hot" ones, aged 10 and up) so that he may pick which ones gain the "honor" of being groped by him.
