That would start a small scale civil war.
Here in Philly, that would be opening shots.

Can the name be changed to the gathering place for unnatural idiot appeasers.

Where do you get that ridiculous idea? Actions that happen in cities and states are the responsibility of city and state authorities. The President of the United States can’t just wave a wand and stop the destruction.

How old ate you? Eight?

Yeah, I was hoping it was FDR they were talking about. He set this country on the downward path to being a welfare state. He also screwed up the agricultural market that still haunts us today.

Trump will do nothing and Mount Rushmore will be destroyed. He thinks it is great watching this catastrophe.

this is a NY state funded museum. He can't do anything other than come out against it, and he has.
Listen, you can't have the federal government taking over state things. The federal statues will stand in areas ran by the feds, until a leftists gets in the WH and Pelosi remains speaker.

Own one slave, work WITH him in the fields, for 1 year and set him free, makes you an evil person? I wonder how he was treated? He didn’t try to run away apparently. Anyway, so much for the statue in Grant Park in Brooklyn, its doomed. Guilty, a gifted slave he apparently took care of makes him a slave master of great proportions for something that occurred 50 years before my family arrived with nothing but the clothes on their backs. When I arrived I had nothing, not even clothes.

Teddy Roosevelt was NYPD Commissioner, 1895-1897. Is his portrait going to be removed from all NYPD offices, too?

Do the Libs have any statues of Wilson around? Bet they do.

Wilson's body is interred at National Cathedral, next to the pews. The Leftie clergy there should kick him to the curb.

Those who destroy history, just want to be free to repeat it.

Indians had slaves. Teddy Roosevelt was a hero and liberator.

He was, and Progressive was the actual name of the party he ran with. He’s among my least favorite presidents.

Quanah Parker is rolling in his grave. Roosevelt treated Chief Parker with respect and honor.
