Trump echoed a popular refrain of white supremacist groups that oppose the removal of Confederate monumentshttp://nyti.ms/2wSNfgx

Majority of Americans OPPOSE removing the statues according to a new NPR poll! Alt-Left and Fake News trying to distort the truth!
-
Doesn't matter, should be left to local government where the statues are located.
-
Perhaps those local governments should have complained about removing them under the Obama administration. They had years, why now?
-
You still don't get it, it's not any government it's CITIZENS who are demanding this change, NOW. These things happen in their own time.

The citizens overwhelmingly oppose this.http://www.npr.org/2017/08/16/543957964/poll-majority-believe-trump-s-response-to-charlottesville-hasn-t-been-strong-eno …

Can anyone explain to this man that these statues DO NOT honor the Civil War, they were erected during Jim Crow to express white supremacy.

When discussing removal of monuments to White Supremacy, complains of 'Erasing history' ARE accurate, To those who don't read books.
-
I understand totally but this is a dangerous moment. Adding fuel to the fire.
-
Wrong. The monuments ARE the fire. Taking down the moments will help put out the fire. White Supremacy apologism gets you nowhere w/ me.

Put these reminders of those who fought for slavery in a museum. They should be removed from places where they & their ideals are glorified.
-
Exactly. No one is REmoving history, just moving it to more appropriate locations.
-
Sure another local, a mangled statue. Not likely. Destroying history. What brave soles!
-
"Souls," not "soles". How is moving objects glorifying the promotion slavery to museums "destroying history"?
