(READ) Trump on removal of Robert E. Lee statue: 'an embarrassment'

Dated: September 8, 2021 by Sharyl Attkisson 3 Comments

      

- September 8, 2021 - 
Statement by Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the United States of America
Just watched as a massive crane took down the magnificent and very famous statue of “Robert E. Lee On His Horse” in Richmond, Virginia. It has long been recognized as a beautiful piece of bronze sculpture. To add insult to injury, those who support this “taking” now plan to cut it into three pieces, and throw this work of art into storage prior to its complete desecration.  Robert E. Lee is considered by many Generals to be the greatest strategist of them all. President Lincoln wanted him to command the North, in which case the war would have been over in one day. Robert E. Lee instead chose the other side because of his great love of Virginia, and except for Gettysburg, would have won the war. He should be remembered as perhaps the greatest unifying force after the war was over, ardent in his resolve to bring the North and South together through many means of reconciliation and imploring his soldiers to do their duty in becoming good citizens of this Country.  Our culture is being destroyed and our history and heritage, both good and bad, are being extinguished by the Radical Left, and we can’t let that happen! If only we had Robert E. Lee to command our troops in Afghanistan, that disaster would have ended in a complete and total victory many years ago. What an embarrassment we are suffering because we don’t have the genius of a Robert E. Lee!

    Lee got a statue because both sides respected him. These are the people who fought with him and against him. Today we have imbeciles that think they know better. If I had the money I'd buy it and put it in my front yard.

    I can't even express how very, very angry the removal of this statue makes me for many reasons.

    And not just me, from discussions with many neighbors of varying hue and political persuasion, it appears Northam and his hypocritical ilk have earned the ardent opposition of many fence sitters with this action.
