Do you agree with Trump that these confederate soldiers should be "praised"?


Trump said in an interview with his favourite network, Fox News that black people who want statues of slave owners and Confederate figures removed should LEARN FROM THE HISTORY or risk going RIGHT BACK TO IT sometime as he made the suggestion that the era of "slavery" could return if they keep removing history from their "heritage"

Calls to remove statues of racists have been mounting since the death of George Floyd as protesters have defaced or brought them down themselves

But Trump is urging them to "think again" particularly black americans because he said "we should learn from history" and said "My message is that we have a great country, we have the greatest country on earth. We have a heritage, we have a history and we should learn from the history, and if you don't understand your history, you will go back to it again. You will go right back to it. You have to learn. Think of it, you take away that whole era and you're going to go back to it sometime. People won't know about it. They're going to forget about it, it's okay. You have to understand history, and our culture and so many other aspects. But you cant take down George Washington. Here is the other problem that i have, a lot of these people don't even know what they are taking down. I see what's happening on tv and they are ripping down things they have no idea what they are ripping down, but they started off with the Confederates and now go to Ulysses Grant so what's all that about? Grant"

Grant beat the confederates and ended the Civil War before becoming President but also married into a famliy that owned SLAVES!

Trump has said protecting statues is now his high priority in policy and made an executive order aimed at protecting monuments and threatens long prison sentences for lawless acts against their country and said "Now they're looking at Jesus Christ, not going to happen. not going to happen while i'm here"...

On saturday he tweeted 15 "wanted" posters of protesters who tried to topple Andrew Jackson, the populist who admirers say reformed Washington DC and is a hero of Trump..despite him being a slave owner who championed "Trail of Tears" forcing native americans west of Mississippi

This also comes just as Trump tweeted and deleted a Villages Video of his geriatric trailer trash supporters fighting against protesters as one yells out "White Power" causing much outrage and the president claims he didn't hear it despite it being in teh first 20 seconds

Trump said he was open go erecting new statues to "great people" and says you shouldn't take away their heritage and history and beauty of these famous confederate men and said they were american heroes who deserve to be praised..

Do you agree with Trump that these confederate soldiers should be "praised"?

Nah, fuck that. He's been ramping up the white supremacist shit lately, and he deserves to be called out for it.

All your post does is pave the way for apathy so he can keep getting away with it. Fuck that.

If it's about history they take them down in put them in a place like a museum, you know some place where you go to see our history. Having them in the middle of parks or in front of government buildings isn't educating people who walk by it, it's celebrating them. You wouldn't put an Osama Bin Laden statue at ground zero or anywhere else for that matter.

How has he not been impeached and removed from office? How many times does he need to prove he is incapable of even a minuscule amount of rational thinking?

No amount of mental gymnastics should be able draw even the slightest amount of cause-effect relationship between taking down monuments to the confederacy and the era of slavery returning. This guy is severely mentally handicapped, if not bat-shit insane.

Yes, everybody needs to learn from history. Celebrating evil traitors is last on the list of effective ways to do so.

I'm only acknowledging reality. Trump has said tons of horrible things, before and after he was elected. But he's President despite all that and he has never seen any consequences for the stuff he's said.

An exhibit of the statues that were taken down, with all the graffiti and damage done to them, would be an incredible picture of the time and place those statues were meant to celebrate, the decades in which the values represented by the statues continued to persist through, the festering opposition to those values over time, and the eventual triumph by the opposition to the racist values that have largely defined American history.

I worded that poorly. Racism obviously still has lots of influence, but the fight is turning up.

You have to give some credit to our constitution and our system of checks and balances. I know I'm thankful for them, and I'm quick to say we basically witnessed how a man like Hitler can rise to power. I've said several times on this board Trump should have been forcefully removed from his campaign trail the day he said we have a Muslim problem. Luckily we have regulations that keep even the president from making so people can be treated differently under the law because of their religion.

Of course somehow these fundamental rights took until this week to apply to the LGBTQ community, and lord knows efforts are still made to treat people differently when it comes to immigration, refugees, and asylum seekers. But it could be so, so much worse without our constitution.

I really don't get the argument that removing these statues is "deleting history". I cannot imagine that there is a factual and accurate representation of history on any of these statues.

You know what WOULD teach history though? Not sugarcoating American textbooks and making shit look kumbaya for easier consumption by White Americans.
