I remember when Trump said they would eventually come after Washington and Jefferson monuments, but I never dreamed they would come after Lincoln...

I heard Birmingham AL had some Confederate statues toppled.

I have been of the belief that until the South could reach an agreement about how to deal with Confederacy-related statues on public property (either choosing to remove of move into museum) or even Confederacy symbols on state flags — that the ghosts of the past would remain and tensions would never heal.

Lincoln wanted so badly to oversee a well laid-out reconciliation process between North and South..but alas, he was assassinated before he could implement his vision. Southern ‘Reconstruction’ ended up being somewhat of a disaster. And the country has yet to recover.

I wonder if they did anything to the huge new MLK monument

I would say they went after Lincoln because he was a Republican; but from what I’ve seen on TV they have no idea.
