      Kevin M. Kruse Retweeted Dinesh D'Souza

      D’Souza claimed there were no Republicans who owned slaves in 1860 and promised he’d have to “take it back” if anyone provided “one solitary” example. Historians gave nine examples, but he hasn’t taken it back. Instead, he retweeted it again an hour ago.https://twitter.com/dineshdsouza/status/1137713456096768000 …

      Why is #FakeHistory so dangerous? Because the misinformation being taught in schools enables the #FakeNews being pushed by the biased media Left! Here's how we STOP it for good 👇🏻 pic.twitter.com/HxBqmYP6yv

      Did he say find one Republican who owned a slave? What he meant was one Republican with a wooden leg who was also fluent in Mandarin and owned a slave. Can't find one, can you?

          You forgot that D'Souza also specified that the one R w/ slaves also had to be a left-handed platform-diver. I'm sure you regret the oversight.

          There was some amazing goalpost moving and now he’s just pretending none of the evidence exists.

          And all that had to be in 1860. If he learned Mandarin in 1861, doesn't count.
