Well, Lee was a great fighter. He was universally lauded up through FDR's admin. FDR dedicated monuments to Lee and the General was seen and should be seen as someone who worked for national and racial healing postwar. He wasn't a racist.

Grant had resources Lee could only dream of . . .

And the moral authority that Lee would and will never have

Trump teaching us history is like getting medical advice from a butcher. Not going to work.
-
Are you saying Lee wasn’t a great military general, that Grant defeating him wasn’t a great accomplishment? Please enlighten us on your history
-
Are you saying you are going to a butcher for your next prostate exam? Please explain.

Because a proctologist makes a comment about meat it’s automatically wrong? Why are we arguing this stupid point, he was actually correct about the history. Lee was a great military commander, it was a great accomplishment for Grant to defeat him? What are you missing?
-
What are you missing? No one can look to Trump to understand the lessons of history.
-
But even if you hate Trump it’s a logical fallacy to assume everything he says is innaccurate, you must see that?? He was actually correct in this instance.
-
Two weeks ago Trump said “Didn’t (George Washington) have a couple things in his past.” Even a broken clock is write twice a day.
-
Trump is a history ignoramus.

The great general Rommel did what he could to stop the U.S. invasion of France, but the Great General Eisenhower ran over him ---...and Lee was a great fighter...for the Democrats

Context matters... But many love to stir the pot at any given moment. This weakens their future arguments.

It's Trumpian stream of consciousness blabbermouth soup. Yes, it was generally about Grant winning, but with Trump insulting him as a drunk and praising Lee. As usual, Trump says both things so people can interpret how they want to and he can complain about being misunderstood.
