WASHINGTON — President Trump announced he’s resurrected Christopher Columbus from being canceled and blasted “radical left communists” who tried to destroy the explorer’s legacy.
Trump lauded the famous Italian American’s accomplishments in a ceremony at the White House as he prepares to add a statue of Columbus to the Rose Garden, where it will join statues of Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson.
“I resurrected Christopher Columbus,” he announced to great applause from the Italians in the room.
“He’s been rehabbed 100 percent, and he’s been resurrected in the true sense,” he added. “He’s back to where he should be.”
He also praised New York City’s robust Italian American community and warned against those who seek to erase traditions.
“Those who hate our country want to see the Italian American community erased. They don’t want to have an Italian American community because you stand for something that’s incredible,” the president said.
Italian-Americans had been “a very discriminated group,” the president noted, and implied liberals tried to prevent filmmakers from using Italian names for mobsters in their films because “they thought it was discriminatory.”
“They didn’t want you to use the name of Alphonse Capone,” he said.
“We love Italian Americans,” he said to great applause. “I love you. That’s why I’m here.”
He also paid tribute to several famous Italian Americans, including opera singer Christopher Macchio, who sang at the event, Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito, and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, whose son Andrew attended the Columbus Day celebration in his absence.

That’s quite a statue. It’s one of the most detailed carvings I’ve seen.

Can he produce a few replicas of this statue for placement at Indian casinos to dress the place up a bit and remind its owners that had he not discovered America, they would not have any casinos?

Well, most of them are on Indian territory. However, most will lease the space for some wampum. I worked at Foxwoods in IT years ago (too many chiefs, not enough indians). They did more self-mocking than a 1950 World Series between the Milwaukee Braves and the Cleveland Indians. Besides the glass statue with quarter hour rain chants followed by a sprinkler shower on the statues, there were the omnipresent servers on the casino floors: young women wearing turquoise and teal mini dresses with faux injun jewelry, matching pumps, and a headband with one feather . . . carrying drinks. Anything for a buck.

Now Indian Tribes are trying to take over that day.
The tribes have TWO GREAT DAYS to call their own. They earned them and no one can take them away.
Aug 10, 1680 Pueblo Revolt.
June 25, 1876 Little Big Horn.
But n-o-O-o.They want to glom onto Columbus day in which the tribes did NOTHING TO BE REMEMBERED FOR.
And if Columbus had never sailed, the New World would still have been found in 1500 by Pedro Alvares Cabral.

Why? Columbus was not first. And he didn’t actually land in America. Well past time to stop worshiping him.

Maybe we should remove all Martin Luther King Statues because he was a serial adulterer who was also a Minister. Sounds like current definition of Sexual Abuse.
Remember we judge everyone from our past by today’s standards, BUT we do not use old standards to judge today’s leaders….
