Johnson said, President Trump said this week that Jefferson and Washington were slave owners, where does it stop? Where does it end?

High yella, Arrogant punk, likely sunburned under side of his nose.
Jeh must not have cared since he never mentioned the white nationalist takeover of America’s statues until this year.
So between the white nationalists and the Russians Jeh was sleeping on the job.
The statues are not a rallying point. Liberal pinheads wanting to remove them are.
I will consider taking advice from him when he learns how to spell his name correctly .... gives a bad image to young black children.
Black Lives No Longer Matter will be the rallying cry
Sounds to me like they are rallying points for the 99.9% white Atifa protesters.
OR
maybe some people don’t like leftist book burning, and orwellian history rewriting.
Consider the source.
Well, Jeh, you are partially correct - with many of them being put up by Democrats during the era of Jim Crow (also a Democrat policy) to express just that. Another legacy of the Democrat Party.
