President Donald Trump suggested at his August 15 press conference that after you start taking down Robert E. Lee statues that it could lead to the same fate for George Washington or Thomas Jefferson statues because they owned slaves. The response from much of the mainstream media was quick. They utterly mocked the notion that such an outcome could take place. An example of the liberal media reaction came from the Associated Press via the PBS website:

Inevitably they will want to change the name of the nation's capital.

What we are going to do is start with the Confederate statues and then quickly move onto the Founders.
We will destroy America one piece of bronze at a time.

Inevitably they will want to change the name of the nation's capital. I'm sure that George Washington would appreciate that. They should just call it "Deep State Swamp". But they will probably rename it "Obama, DC".
Oh Wait, Columbia refers to that white supremacist Christopher Columbus. They'll need to change that too.
"Obama, District of Clinton".

There already is a part of Wash DC called Foggy Bottom. That name can be expanded for the entire city.

You give the Anarchists an inch and they take a mile. Amazing how that works with the Anarchists.
I would like to point out that the police just stayed on the sidelines.
When I was a youthful teenager the police would have thrown so much tear gas that we would either run away or pass out! The police & the mayor did not do their job to quell the violence just like with Saint Michael Brown in Missouri. What happened to the Missouri governor???
The Gov' of the great state of Virginia will not be elected as the Gov' next time around.

Maybe instead of Foggy Bottom, we should rename DC Fat Bottom in “honor” of two of our former first “ladies”....
Moochelle and Hillary.

You almost have to feel bad for the Democrats in office. These are their constituents, these are the people driving this madness and the people connected to their party. The media gases up the left all of the time, protects them, encourages their lunacy because they think it’s the right thing to do. Meanwhile in the real world everyone’s looking at them thinking “are you crazy?”. Americans don’t want people tearing down their hisorical monuments or statues because radicalized groups say that they’re symbols of racism. Democrat party has to be at an all-time low if this is all they have and these are the people that they have to pander to in order to keep power. Their entire party has become a big shit show.

Partner, The left is imploding right now and we just love it! They are dying a slow death! The left thought that Miss Hillary should have been elected as our president! Thanks to God we had a little intervention even after all the cheating and fraud by the Rat party to favor Miss Hillary!

LOL, when I was a teenager, the police had walking beats and a night stick, and they used it. “Don’t get smart with me kid, “wack”. Most were vets of WW II.
