Happy birthday, Mr. President: Trump turns 71

Do you know these facts about your new president-elect?
June 14, 2017

June 14 is Donald Trump’s 71st birthday, and the 45th president received hundreds of birthday wishes on social media.

Not all birthday wishes came from family.

Or even from Americans.

Trump shares his birthday with the Army, which was founded on this date in 1775 when the Continental Congress authorized "the formation of ten companies of expert riflemen from Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Virginia, which were directed to march to Boston to support the New England militia," according to Army history.

While receiving birthday wishes on social media, Trump tweeted a happy birthday to the Army.

If you'd like to send the president birthday wishes, he has two Twitter accounts: @realDonaldTrump and @potus.
