Almost all the reports from the usual suspects hold up the line that the President said Jackson could have averted the Civil War even though he died 16 years before the war started.
The journalists are so damn dumb that I have to force myself to climb down into their mind stink to read what they have to say.
The 1861 start of that war was merely the last step in a long line of steps going back decades preceding the lead up to it.
How damn dumb can reporters be?
President Trump is merely pointing out that Andrew Jackson was in a position to sidestep the path leading to that war that broke out 16 years later and that he, President Trump, can see steps that could have been taken to avert that war.
Historians do this kind of post-factual analysis all the time. But when Donald Trump does it, he gets insulted with pestilent commentary that reveals the small minds spewing it forth.
Keep it up reporters! You make yourselves objects of ridicule with each passing day.
Well stated.
Exactly. Any other person, and they can speculate on causes of the Civil War evident during the Revolutionary War.
Let Trump comment on that and all of a sudden he'd be mocked as saying that the Marquis de Lafayette caused the Civil War.
