        Trumpists should go all in. Start singing the 3rd verse of the anthem. No refuge could save the hireling and slave From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave: And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave, O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

        ERASING ALL HISTORY IS NOT THE ANSWER, BUT I DO BELIEVE SOME DIVERSITY AT IS OVERDUE . If we have no schools named in honor of black historical figures than SHAME ON US.

        Changing a school name does not erase history. A School name represents who we honor and celebrate. A rebel general slaver should not be celebrated by any means in this country.

        Then they go off every street, building and Memorial. No more Lincoln Tunnel, no more Washington Monument, no more Martin Luther King Blvd., No more Jefferson Memorial, No more Harriet Tubman & Frederick Douglass statuses in Maryland state House, No Rockefeller Center.

        You don't honor traitors. Germany didn't honor Hitler, Italy didn't honor Mussolini, Argentina didn't honor the Perrone's. The US leadership was WAY too lenient at the end of the Civil War...their leaders should have been executed & then we would have been done with this BS!
