If the RWNJs really want to start erasing historical facts, I have a few suggestions for them.

[Atticus]

Many tall buildings don't have a "13th" floor. There may be over 50 floors in these buildings, but there is no "13" button to push in the elevators. The floor above the 12th is labelled "14th". The 13th has just been "disappeared".

I propose that the entire 45th presidential administration be "disappeared". Textbooks will not mention Trump or anyone in his administration. President Biden's predecessor will be listed as Barack Obama. There will be no official portrait of Trump and no---wait for it!---library.

It stands to reason that a disappeared administration did not appoint any federal judges, including SCOTUS Justices. Gorsuch, Kavanaugh and Barret can have 24 hours to clean out their desks before President Biden's appointments are seated.

A lot more housecleaning would be necessary if we "disappeared" the 45th presidency, but I am certainly many citizens would be happy to help.

How 'bout them apples, Trumpies? Still want to eliminate slavery and Jim Crow from classroom discussions?

1. Why not. They did that with Bush the Lesser.

Made it easier to blame Obama for everything.

[barbtries]

2. history will have to at least

put an asterisk next to his ugly face.

[lastlib]

5. How about *OVER* it??

Then we wouldn't have to look at that hideous anus-mouth and orange paint-job.

[TNNurse]

3. I love you for this.

[calimary]

4. Sure works for me!

As does barbtries’ comment suggesting an asterisk be added by Orangino’s name, if we must list him. There should be asterisks by ANYONE’S name who “won” without winning the popular vote. Call it the “Inside Straight Club”.

6. THAT'S A GREAT IDEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you need a medal for that 1! I'M IN !!!!

[Bernardo de La Paz]

7. 1. Impossible to do. 2. Some other thug would repeat it. 3. Well

3. It's a really stupid idea all-round. Note: the idea is stupid. Kind of a waste of time proposing it.

[AmBlue]

8. I personally LOVE this idea however...

I'm thinking history's framing of the TFG regime must be more like slavery or the Holocaust. This way it is viewed as an aberrant period in our history that must be confronted with eyes wide open and acknowledged as the horrible mistake it was. Electing a criminal con man as a U.S. President is indeed an atrocity that must be corrected (with prosecutions!!) and atoned for, for the sake of future generations and for the whole world. We must vow as a nation NEVER to allow it to happen again-- to include enacting legislation that prevents a repeat of this terrible near-destruction of our democracy.

9. Republicans: NOW LIBERALS ARE TRYING TO ERASE TRUMP'S ENTIRE PRESIDENCY!

...as if the then-GOP-controlled Congress didn't spend all of 2017 quite literally working diligently to erase that a Black man had ever been President of the United States of America. A coworker & I used to check the Congressional schedule & record at least 2x a week to see them hard at work. Nothing was too small that the GOP wasn't going to vote to repeal it, all the way down to Post Office and freeway overpass dedication namings.
