President Trump (mis)spoke about Frederick Douglass in the present tense, saying that “he’s doing terrific things,” and didn’t fix it by saying specific things about Douglass and why we honor his legacy (not even throw in “brave abolitionist” or “tireless advocate for equality”). It made it sound as if Trump didn’t know who Douglass was. While Democrats and the MSM will carp about anything and everything that Trump says, this was an unforced error on Trump’s part. Dammit, Frederick Douglass was a true American hero, not a Communist like King or a fake martyr like Parks, and Republican presidents need to praise him to the sky at every occasion (and especially when announcing that stupid Black History Month).
Ah, I didn’t notice.
Pence tweeted about Lincoln, and they’re attacking him with “Pence honors White man in BHM tweet”.
It’s time stop even acknowledging this stupid concept, anything a Republican says on it will just be used to attack them.
Make that “Pence honors White man in TONE DEAF BHM tweet”.
Everything they don’t like is “tone deaf”.
