'One of the greatest presidents': Republicans proposed to establish Trump Day
Two representatives of the Ohio Republican Party propose to declare June 14 (the birthday of the 45th President of the United States) as Donald Trump Day and celebrate it at the state level, writes Dispatch.

Republicans John Cross of Kenton and Reggie Stoltzfus of Paris Township, Ohio, sent an email to their state House colleagues asking them to co-sponsor the upcoming bill "to honor one of the greatest presidents in American history."
“Let us show the 3 voters in Ohio who voted to re-elect Donald J. Trump that we, as a legislature, recognize the accomplishments of his administration,” the politicians said in the letter.

It is not uncommon for states to turn the birthdays of outgoing presidents into special days. California celebrates February 6, President Ronald Reagan's birthday, and public schools are doing "exercises to remember Ronald Reagan's life, recognize his accomplishments, and introduce students to the contributions he has made to California."
Ohio, along with 40 other states, celebrates Ronald Reagan Day thanks to a 2009 law.
But basically, presidents are honored with this honor after death.
Georgia does not yet have President Jimmy Carter's Day; Arkansas has no President Bill Clinton's Day. Illinois, however, passed the Barack Obama Day Act in 2017.
Cross and Stoltzfus did not respond to requests for comment, but Ohio House Democrats believe June 14 is not the right date.

Yes, it's the birthday of the 45th President of the United States, but it's also the U.S. national holiday, Flag Day, which commemorates the adoption of the American flag on June 14, 1777.
“I don’t like the idea of replacing the existing federal flag holiday,” said Rep. Jeff Crossman of Parma. "I think it's disrespectful."
