Former US president Woodrow Wilson, who was in office from 1913 to 1921, defended segregation and slavery

When New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy tweeted a picture of him observing a moment of silence in honor of George Floyd earlier this month, people were quick to point out that he was doing it from behind a desk that was engraved with the name of Woodrow Wilson.

Some found the image ironic because Murphy was remembering the unjust death of a Black man while sitting at a desk that once belonged to Wilson, a former New Jersey governor and US president who defended segregation and slavery. New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy tweeted this picture of him taking a moment of silence for George Floyd on June 4 as he sits behind a desk that once belonged to Woodrow Wilson.

Well then box it up and ship it my way, I will use it because IT'S A PIECE OF FURNITURE, not relevant in the current situation except for you to show how ignorant you can be, just like the Cancel Culture and the BLM statue smashers trying to erase history. Not Relevant!

How about not using the Governor’s mansion if it belonged to someone you want to cancel. Cuomo is living in Théodore Roosevelt’s mansion. Let’s burn it down.

What an idoit!

I’m so embarrassed for him. This is so freaking ridiculous. And What a dumb photo. “Look at how dramatic I am sitting at this desk”.

🙄

Woodrow Wilson - Democrat You’re welcome. KnowYourHistory

Seriously, who wasn’t racist in white 🇺🇸 in 1913-1921? Anyone?

Senator Byrd

This is sick!

Bullshit. Snaggletooth uses the desk for 2 years and now he just realizes it Woodrow Wilson's desk.

The Governor Murphy is really thinking of a new name for Princeton university because during its first two hundred years, Princeton University (then the College of New Jersey) was a segregated institution. And that's racist.....

Democrat Woodrow Wilson.

Because a desk is racist....don't jerk yourself off too hard while patting yourself on the back... Here's an idea, keep the desk and use it to sign legislation that lifts poor people in your state out of poverty, end redlining and make meaningful change. WoodrowWilson racism

This is Democrat propaganda to divide and cause chaos. CNN needs help

Just put kamala harris under the desk and let her suck the racism out.

Smh 🤦🏽‍♂️ the desk though !

The desk is another story cnn. Will you go after those that own furniture of Napoleon, Ivan, Vlad, hell too many to name. It’s mostly the elite that run you that own the belongings.

GovMurphy and what of the rest area that bears Woodrow Wilson’s name? Are rest areas along N.J. Turnpike privately or publicly owned?

Racist table

Desks are racist? What about the oxygen he breathed? It’s still in the atmosphere.

Who cares?

Democrat Woodrow Wilson.

People keep calling Donald stupid. He's not stupid, he's actively ignoring Covid and Russian Bounties on American heads. He is actively trying to distract by stoking racial tensions and many of his supporters are for it & for another civil war. But diminish his evil. Da fuq?

Why New Jersey wants to block civilian oversight of Newark’s troubled police forceIt underscores the challenges facing progressive leaders who cast themselves as reformers but stop short of brokering changes. Race & religion biasis. The statement by the former president of the FOP that “we know how to police our police” has got to be the biggest bullshit line in a year that has been constant bullshit. How come no Mosque have been looted or burnt, why?

New Jersey governor hits ‘pause’ on indoor dining amid Covid spikes in other statesNew Jersey will not allow restaurants to reopen for indoor dining this week as originally planned, following spikes of coronavirus cases in other states that have reopened on a more aggressive timeline Does the governor know that? Pretty sure I saw a picture of him eating inside a restaurant. That's good! Stratergies to be laid down as fast as possible. Deal it Daily. He is absolutely right. The number of people dining outdoor in my neighborhood recently is nerve-racking. Few wear masks. Little social distancing. It's just a matter of time until the case number spikes again once they move indoor with AC and fans.

New Jersey Puts Indoor Dining On Pause Indefinitely Because Of CoronavirusNew Jersey is postponing indoor restaurant dining indefinitely, citing surges in COVID-19 cases in other states 'driven by, in part, the return of indoor dining,' Gov.

Support your local restaurant owners however you can!! We love them!! Good. Because while every other country has seen a mass decline, America is going back up in cases. It's horrible.
