The Internet Hilariously Clapped Back to Donald Trump’s Tweet About Preserving Confederate Monuments
After last weekend’s horrific White Supremacy rally in Charlottesville that lead to the death of a counter-protester, many cities are removing their Confederate monuments. You know, the statues that honor the people who fought to keep slavery and split up the United States, NBD. On Thursday Morning, Donald Trump (aka, the US President), tweeted that he thinks the monuments should remain. Yep. I know, you’re shocked, because Trump seems like such a great guy.
Here’s what the racist-in-chief put out into the world:
Oh, it’s so sad, the beautiful statues of treasonous racists are coming down! Boo fucking hoo.
Well, Twitter wasn’t going to stand for this absurd line of thinking. Those beautiful bastards took Trump’s words and applied them to some of our truly beloved statues and symbols.
Ronald’s gotta go.

The lamestream media never told us about this battle.

Bubbles wasn’t a (alleged) pedophile, he just hung out with one.

I can’t believe I need to write this, but: if you’re upset that a statue of a loser racist scum bucket is being removed, you are part of the problem.
