Robert E. Lee said on numerous occasions not to put up monuments to him or "the cause." So dumb hick conservatives aren't even honoring him by killing to keep his monuments. The best and most appropriate RE Lee monument is the giant 50 foot high Virginia memorial at Gettysburg

Excellent point. He abandoned his country to fight for his state. The country that invested in his military training and believed in him. But REL was treasonists and accept for AL he could have been hanged/hung/faced a Firing Squad. AL wanted to heal US all DJT does is hurt US
-
People support statue preservation for many reasons - historical, political, aesthetic, etc. DJT like AL took the more sophisticated, adult-level view - he condemned totally those who needed condemning, and did not condemn gray area statue supporters. He wanted healing.
-
Hahaha when the fuqq has Trump "wanted healing" on any topic? He's the most vitriolic president by far.

this is interesting point: will Biden be able to get under Trump's skin in way other candidates might not?
-
Kinda think he did when Trump doubled down on Charlottesville in response to Biden's launch video.
-
Doubled down on what?? You people haven't even watched the entire press conference or read the transcripts. Right before the both sides comment Trump specifically says he's not talking about the "nazis and white nationalists and they should be condemned totally". Fact!!!
-
Nah. He likes Nazis and thinks they're very fine people.
-
You Trumpers are not getting the point. Biden released a video, and it got Trump to defend his comments. Well played by Biden.

Robert E. Lee was a traitor to his country who fought to maintain white supremacy and slavery. He lost, and then said, we all need to come together, and there should be no statues of me or other leaders. Look. It. Up.

We don’t usually celebrate the “great generals” of our enemies.

Or traitors -- hence no "Benedict Arnold's birthday."

Wrong Trump specifically said he was not talking about neo-Nazis and white supremacists. Direct quote from transcript: "I'm not talking about the neo-Nazis and the white nationalists. They should be condemned totally."
-
He defended Robert E. Lee, who was fighting to maintain white supremacy and slavery. Rebelled against this country, and his oath, to defend slavery. Do some reading.
-
He said Robert E. Lee was a good general. One can be a good general and fight for the wrong thing.

He never defended them. STOP LYING. Your whole party so fears the truth.

Defending Robert E. Lee, a trainer who fought for white supremacy. Are you kidding me?
