Trump equates support for Confederate flag with Black Lives Matter

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Donald Trump has equated the Black Lives Matter movement with displays of the Confederate flag, saying: “I’m not offended either by Black Lives Matter, that’s freedom of speech. You know the whole thing with cancel culture – we can’t cancel our whole history. We can’t forget that the north and the south fought.”

Repeating his threat to veto moves to rename US military bases named for Confederate generals, he added: “When people proudly have their Confederate flags, they’re not talking about racism. They love their flag, it represents the south.”

Trump made the potentially inflammatory comments in an interview with Fox News Sunday, broadcast a day after a Black Lives Matter mural on the street in front of Trump Tower in New York was defaced for the third time in less than a week.

Asked about moves to rename US bases under the National Defense Authorization Act which are supported by senior military leaders, Trump said: “I don’t care what the military says. I’m supposed to make the decision. Fort Bragg is a big deal … Go to the community, say, ‘How do you like the idea of renaming Fort Bragg,’ and then what are we going to name it? We going to name it after the Reverend Al Sharpton?”

2. Forget? No... Stop venerating the traitors and their symbols? Hell yes we can...

Go to back to the fatherland Drumpf...see how many openly displayed swastikas you find, count the number of Himmler High Schools and Mengele Hospitals and Hitler Universities you find.

Why?

You think Germans are "cancel culturing" the Nazi Party? NO!!!
The fucking Nazi's LOST the war, were eradicated and their cause equated with the social status of child molestation.

As it should be with the symbols and iconography of the Confederacy, no matter what the dumb-ass redneck hate brigade you associate with and revere thinks or says. THEY LOST, their ideology is repudiated by history and their cause is not just lost, it is anathema.

Now, Donnie, kindly sit down, shut up and fuck yourself you racist clown.
