Trump was later informed that his administration had put out statements on Juneteenth in each of his first three years in office.
In Wednesday's WSJ interview, Trump said a black Secret Service agent told him the meaning of Juneteenth when the president initially faced criticism following his announcement of the rally.
Also fueling criticism of the rally is that Tulsa was the site of a massacre in 1921 in which mobs of white residents attacked black residents and businesses in a section of the city referred to as"Black Wall Street." Speaking of Juneteenth, Trump told the WSJ,"It's actually an important event, an important time. But nobody had ever heard of it."
The Trump administration has put out statements on Juneteenth in each of his first three years in office. "Oh really? We put out a statement? The Trump White House put out a statement?" Trump said when informed of this fact."Ok, ok. Good."
