Rewriting History

Carrying the self-proclaimed title of 'the greatest country in the world' must be an onerous task, yet not one Don Trump is flinching from. After all, such a country bears unusual responsibilities in arenas such as truth, morality, culture, science and history.

The problem arises when you have a president that embodies no virtues, only a full-throated abuse of power. That power is seeing Ameika's rapid devolution into a fascist state where the only truth is that promulgated by the leader. Now, American museums are under attack as Dear Leader attempts to rewrite history.

U.S. President Donald Trump suggested on Tuesday he will pressure the Smithsonian Institution — a premier museum, education and research complex for American history and culture — to accept his demands, just like he did with colleges and universities by threatening to cut federal funding.

When asked if Trump would threaten funding cuts to the Smithsonian based on the findings, a White House official said, "President Trump will explore all options and avenues to get the Woke out of the Smithsonian and hold them accountable."

The White House said last week it will lead an internal review of some Smithsonian museums after Trump earlier this year accused it of spreading "anti-American ideology" and raised alarm among civil rights advocates.

Here is what the oaf wrote on his Truth Social vanity project:

"The Smithsonian is OUT OF CONTROL, where everything discussed is how horrible our Country is, how bad Slavery was, and how unaccomplished the downtrodden have been — Nothing about Success, nothing about Brightness, nothing about the Future," Trump wrote on Truth Social.

Amerika has always been an intolerant country with an addiction to myth rather than truth, but at least some have tried to alter its worst propensities by learning about its history. Thanks to Don Trump, that will become much more difficult from hereon in.

  1. Does PM Mark Carney understand Trump? Does he understand what Neville Chamberlain did? Does he know the label Anschluss applies to?

    1. Carney is treading on some very dangerous ground, Toby. I doubt very much that his appeasement efforts will yield anything but bitter fruit.

    2. PM Poillievre would have negotiated our annexation by now endearing himself to the pedofuhrer along with the diagalon maple maga crew or by being the abrasive dick he plays in Canadian politics . Just count your blessings. So far we have jumped the shark and are still players. .

    3. True. Let us hope the crisis (or Trump) passes before PP ever gets a shot at leading the country.

  2. "... how unaccomplished the downtrodden have been"?! That doesn't sound even remotely like Trump. Trump doesn't care about slavery exhibits; all that happened long before he was born.

    What triggered Trump was the Smithsonian's impeachment exhibit that featured his mug. We all know what Trump cares about. Stephen Miller, OTOH...

    1. Trump is a reactive and petty man, Sumi - a dangerous combination.
