On November 1, 2020, President Donald Trump decided to proclaim the day as ‘National Day of Remembrance for Americans Killed By Illegal Aliens’. November 1st is also happens an important holiday for Mexico and other Central American countries, Dia de los Muertos or the Day of the Dead. This holiday is a time when families gather to honor and remember deceased loved ones. It is also believed that the souls of the dead return to visit the living families in homes, businesses and cemeteries. Trump’s proclamation called for criticism just days before the election. Whether an honest mistake or malicious intent, the White House also announced that 400 miles of new border wall had been constructed during his term.
