What a fucking Moron

President Trump praised the Confederate general Robert E. Lee whilst asking African American voters to honor us by voting for him at an Ohio rally that included an unexpected and provocative monologue on Americas Civil War history.

Literally lying about history

Kanye is definitely not pro-slavery. Please don't slander him before he even begins his presidential campaign.

Well you see, TC, Robert E Lee was actually fighting FOR black people...By fighting to keep slavery in the nation he was actually fighting to give African Americans a CHOICE, like Kanye said. Whereas the Union (who today's LIBERALS would support) were fighting to abolish slavery, essentially giving black people no choice at all when it comes to slavery, once again telling them what to do...That means THEY were the REAL racists.

If that is truly Kanye's view, I can easily see him entering the White House in 2024. There's some profound wisdom in this comment.

That is crazy that you think there is a large group of republicans who want to Lynch black people. Also, I think Antifa is a pretty dangerous and extreme group that go beyond being racist on Twitter. Not to mention mainstream liberals actually get away with praising them.

His base does not hold those beliefs. Keep in mind that Trump has a diverse group of people backing him. A tiny minority of that group might hold racist views, but you will find people like that on both sides.

We don't want anyone kneeling during the anthem since it does disrespect reasonable members of the military along with our flag. This has nothing to do with race whatsoever.

If you listen to the whole thing he said, he praised Robert E. Lee for his general ability to set up how Grant beat him. It was a long rambling mess, but it wasn't just him waxing poetic on Lee's political beliefs or anything.

Fake News NBC Issues Correction Over Trumps Robert E Lee Comments

https://dailycaller.com/2018/10/14/nbc-correct-trump-robert-e-lee-tweet/

NBC News has issued a correction over its reporting on President Donald Trumps Civil War comments, acknowledging that the president did not actually describe Confederate General Robert E. Lee as incredible.

The correction is in reference to the following tweet NBC sent on Friday night, when Trump held a campaign rally in Lebanon. Ohio.

NBC News did not include Trumps comments in full when it claimed Trump was calling Lee incredible. When looking at his comments just a few seconds sooner, its clear that the president was calling Ulysses S. Grant, the general of the Union army, incredible not Lee.

Ohio is the state that gave us a great president who hasnt been properly recognized, OK? William McKinley has not been properly recognized. What he did in terms of trade, in terms of war, but in terms of trade and I hate to say, in being smart in terms of tariffs William McKinley has not been properly recognized. But maybe someday he will, president Trump said during the Friday rally.

It also gave you a general who was incredible. He drank a little bit too much. You know who Im talking about, right? So Robert E. Lee was a great general. And Abraham Lincoln Developed a phobia. He couldnt beat Robert E. Lee. They said Dont take him; hes got a drinking problem. And Lincoln said, I dont care what problem he has. You guys arent winning. And his name was Grant, General Grant, Trump explained.

The comments were in clear reference to Grant, a man who was born in Ohio and was known for his battles with alcoholism.

NBCs correction comes after Trump skewered the network on Sunday morning for distorting his speech.
