Sure, I liked how he stood up for the monuments and called the media out for their bull with protecting the alt-left. It was horrid and disgusting what happened on Saturday but he was correct on so many things.

You do know that most of the monuments were put up during the second wave of the Klan in the 10's and 20's, right?

I do know that, I was viewing a graph somewhere about that today. It doesn't bother me however, the Klan is bad, but we shouldn't erase our history no matter how bad it is.

No one is talking about getting rid of civil war battlefields, Arlington, or the 13 and 14th Amendments.

I'm starting to get angry about people equating "please stop celebrating evil" with "hiding history". The Confederacy got millions of people killed in an effort to make sure a bunch of rich jerks could keep treating people like things. That's as evil as it gets. And that is the history of the Civil War.

This exactly. The Confederacy is not American history by any means. It's a disgrace to honor its leaders, its flag, etc. Put the stuff in a museum for all I care, but do not ever defend a rogue, racist, pro-slavery nation.

Some American citizens seem to be the only ones in which a large group of people worship an evil nation that existed in the past within the nation's borders.

That would be like worshipping Hitler in Germany.

Amen.

Have any GOP congresspeople tweeted yet about how "disappointed" and "concerned" they are by the President's words (before doing absolutely nothing about it)?

What do you expect them to do?  No longer support tax cuts or something?  They're going to publicly state their discontent just like elected Democrats.

Ouch.

Perhaps one of the only Republican statements on the matter with any real substance beyond platitudes.

That's ridiculous.  I know this board adheres to the idea that if Republican politicians continue to support literally any of Trump's stated policy goals (like tax reform), they're not "standing up to him," but all you have to do is open up your CNN app right now to see that several Republicans have very openly and directly called the President out and denounced his ridiculous press conference.  It's the exact same thing Democratic politicians are doing.

Yawn. Boring platitudes all around. It's like a virtue signalling Olympics.

Yep, meanwhile that 30-40% of the base like my dad is going into screaming rages at the TV how Trump isn't racist and how the people marching weren't really Nazis and how Obama is the really racist one who supports black supremacy and BLM terrorists.

It's more like 60-70%

What guides your ideology?  It LITERALLY seems to be White nationalism.

That guys is legitimately insane.  Sad couple of days seeing so much Confederate apoligism, which - by extension - really undermines the United States of America.
