The South Dakota crowd really Goebbeled this up.
I can& #39;t stress enough how angry and reactionary this speech is, on a day that celebrates the violent, statue-destroying revolution that birthed the US.
After complaining about how his opponents get history totally wrong, Trump sets the story straight.
The author of American liberty, Thomas Jefferson!
Ok, I won& #39;t keep adding clips...but #twitterstorians out there will certainly want to watch this. It& #39;s an interesting window into how this administration is seeking to shape our national memory. It& #39;s basically an anti-Charles Beard US History textbook ca. 1928.
"The American people will never relinquish the bold, beautiful, and untamed spirit of Theodore Roosevelt."
"Our country is founded on Judeo-Christian values."
"We reject cancel culture," said the President after saying that 55% of his fellow American citizens hate the country and must be fought with every fiber of our being.
"Their goal is to end America," the very anti-cancel culture President just said.
And now he& #39;s reciting the lyrics to John Brown& #39;s Body...John Brown, the revolutionary who stormed a federal armory to try to end white supremacy. But sure Trump, sure.
The very anti-cancel culture President just referred to all of his opponents as "very bad, evil people."
Ok, now he& #39;s enlisting MLK, Jr. in his cause and then 15 seconds later waxed rhapsodic about "our manifest destiny." I simply can& #39;t anymore with this.
He just announced the creation of The American Garden of American Heroes. What the heck?
He just said "together we can achieve anything." Anything except dealing with a pandemic?
I can’t believe this is his walk off music.
This song was a scathing indictment of Bush& #39;s GOP.
These people are SO TERRIBLE AT EVERYTHING THEY DO. Seriously, they can& #39;t even pick music right, or put together a coherent story about the American past.
