Grant was a butcher, his casualties at Spotsylvania & the Wilderness (not to mention the totally unnecessary affair at Cold Harbor) were atrocious.
Don’t even bother discussing history with libs—they will always add or take away from what really happened. Once a liar, always a liar.
So...then this movie was made by liberals?
So was Pershing. So was Patton. So was Halsey. So was Curtis LeMay.
You win a war by slaughter, destruction, and terror that destroys the enemy's will to continue. That's why reasonable people do not start wars they do not have the stomach to finish. When we find our Grant, we will win the present war, and not before. It is unfortunate, but history requires it to not be otherwise.
Grant’s casualties in the first attack at Cold Harbor were 37% of the assaulting forces. Lees casualties attacking Cemetery Ridge (Picket’s Charge)were 49% of assaulting forces. Who is the butcher?
