That no historical figure can stand up to the application of modern leftist standards. I presume we just need no monuments or statues at all.

I recall the left scoffing in 2016 when Trump warned them that targeting statues of Lee and others would lead to people wanting statues of a Washington, Jefferson and others removed. It took less than three years for Trump’s warning to become reality.

She is smarter about US history than 20 year olds that graduated from the US school system.

It is one of the few times that I agreed with Trump. Once you go after Lincoln and Grant then you are just out to tear down the entire country.

While I can see the rebel statues an issue for African Americans, far better to work on legislation and police policies along with education and job opportunities.
