President Trump alleged during a Fourth of July speech at Mount Rushmore on Friday that children are being indoctrinated to "hate their own country" in schools.
“Our nation is witnessing a merciless campaign to wipe out our history, defame our heroes, erase our values and indoctrinate our children,” Trump said to the crowd while discussing protests nationwide against police brutality and racism. Trump more specifically called out those tearing down statues of Confederate leaders and other figures who have faced renewed scrutiny in recent weeks.
"The violent mayhem we have seen in our streets and cities are run by liberal Democrats in every case is the predictable result of years of extreme indoctrination and bias in education, journalism and other cultural institutions," he said. "Against every law of society and nature, our children are taught in school to hate their own country and to believe that the men and women who built it weren't heroes, but villains. The radical view of American history is a web of lies."

The media will try to counter but Trump is setting the terms of the debate now.
Yup.
Yeah. Go ahead and dis America you stoopid commies. Keep it up. I’m betting on US.
One of his best speeches. He left no doubt where he stands, now if he will just back up his words and continue to hammer the democrats on their support of these fascists.
This is a message that will resonate big time.
I raised four daughters. (The greatest four people ever to walk the Earth, by the way...) I had to constantly correct and amend their history lessons to set the record straight. I am still trying to undo the whole global warming crap. By and large, they vote Republican.
Trump is by no means perfect or always right,
that said,
I love this guy.
He really does love the country. I just truly believe he’s not a faker when it comes to the country.
Anything that p1sses off the socialist orwellian one worlders, you know is good. He does love the country.
That’s not a blanket endorsement of everything he does or strategy he employs, but he’s not the enemy.
Much to the chagrin of the rinos, uniparty, socialists and other haters of the people, and the country.
I also believe that the two-party system as we know it has been weakened or completely destroyed when Trump leaves office. Because no conservative is going to hold their noses for RINOs ever again when Trump leaves, so you tools at the Lincoln Project and all you groups like Club for Growth who milk conservatives every 4 years can pound sand.
I wish, wish, wish Trump would speak from the Oval office with the follow actions: Anti trust action vs social media companies. End of all federal aid to jurisdictions that cut police budgets by more than 10% annually. No federal aid to jurisdictions that allowed rampaging mobs to control their cities and burn them. The end of Dept of Defense participation in NFL and other pro sports that disrespect our country. Easing the ability of citizens to file law suits against companies, universities, etc that fire them when they exercise free speech. Ending federal funds to higher education institutions that prohibit conservatives from exercising their rights.
I think it’s great that someone is finally starting to make this a real issue. The left’s distortion of history and indoctrination of children for political reasons is one of the most damaging things that’s ever happened to this country. They’ve created a very ill-informed, Crusader army on the left set on destroying the United States in any recognizable form.
It’s undeniable. They grow out of it Stonegate but I saw it with my own, and have heard it from countless others.
long overdue but THANK GOD
“Trump more specifically called out those tearing down statues of Confederate leaders”
I may have missed it, but I dont think he called out any fallen confederate statue in his speach.
The 2020 Presidential race has begun.
Yep. You broke it, you bought it.
What he said is true. His whole speech was filled with truths.
Then do something about it!
President Trump controls the Department of Education.
Cut off Federal funds to schools and colleges that promote ‘Hate America First.”
The Anti-American hatred has been taught in schools since I was a student back in the early 70s. It began with the refusal to say the Pledge of Allegiance and went downhill from there.
I still have my history class notes from three years of high school. I should scan them and share them here. I was an avid note-taker, so if they at any point seem sparse, it’s because that’s all I was taught. I questioned that teacher often, because there was very little substance, just a lot of date, people, place memorization. Those things don’t matter as much as why and context surrounding the why.
She didn’t like my views. She was a radical feminist leftist, in that order. She was pregnant my senior year, so when we found out it was a boy I was like, “Dear God, that poor kid is screwed right out of the womb.”
One of my friends, a Libertarian, is a fifth grade teacher in a heavily Christian school district that is somehow full of leftists. She’s disgusted with her coworkers and the parents, but can’t speak against them. They made her hate her job, which she once loved. She makes sure the kids receive balance though, and that they hear more than one viewpoint.
Hard to do nowadays...
That’s The Hill, injecting fake news into the article. Trump knows this statue and monument-toppling movement has reached far past the Confederate examples, and so does this writer. Despicable, really.
the coup attempt against him and the Mueller,
the framing of Gen Flynn,
the scam of accusing Kavanaugh,
the foundational lies of his impeachment,
the treachery of Schiff,
the weaponization of the IRS, FBI, and DOJ
stacking Democrat votes by illegals:
All point to flyover country being denied a voice, and is a prelude to War. As such,
1. HE SHOULD SPECIFICALLY ASK ALL FORMER MILITARY TO FLOOD THE RANKS OF THE UNORGANIZED MILITIA (10 USC Sect 246). PARTICULARLY FORMER OFFICERS.
2. ALL SHERIFFS BE VETTED BY THEIR CITIZENS IF THEY ARE INDEED CONSTITUTIONAL SHERIFFS.
3. INSIST ON REESTABLISHING CURRICULUM AT ALL LEVELS OF A CLASSIC AMERICAN EDUCATION; OR NO PUBLIC FUNDING.
These three issues would be check-fking-mate on the Marxists, Progressives, and all other American haters.
