Radical extremists & communist are big on destroying history & monuments, therefore, it's lessons. The Left has stopped the teaching of history in schools & now this. We can now expect the 'big spin' that oppressive governments historically use to dupe ya into being a dum minion.

The Taliban took down monuments, too

Democrats hiding their racist past😂 Too lazy to cook or clean for themselves since 1863

Why destroy this history? Good or bad, it is a reminder that things happened that should not happen again. Knowing history hopefully teaches us that we could do better. Someone once wrote '...if you don't know history, you don't know sht.'

Erase the HATE sure, but not History!

oh yeah. Dems def need another candidate🥺

Another crooked democrat!

I really like Mitch. Only question for me is his stance on women’s rights. I’d like to see him in the 2020 mix if he can convince me that his empathy extends to a woman’s right to choose.

Dems aren’t smart enough.

He's a philistine. No better than the ISIS troglodytes who smashed up ancient Assyrian statues because they 'offended' against the Islamic religion. He's unfit to hold any public office.

Yeah, except this was him at the DNC in 08 pity HimToo

Have none of you leftist thought police ever read 1984?!

The new “Kingfish”

Censorship isn’t a laudable attribute I want in my POTUS or leadership. Leaders enforce our United States Constitution regardless of ‘feelings’ that rear their ugly head from time to time. This creates a slippery slope that can’t be navigated without causing more harm than good.

A good read ! Everyone should give it thought.

Confederates were Democrats as was the KKK. Funny how that isn't mentioned by the 95% of the media that is Progressive.

As a native this disappointments me. Its history, one can't cherry pick history. It was the rebal army AND the slaves that killed my people, at least they lived. Many of our tribes are gone forever, including the aztecs and the mayans. (Spaniard army and slaves.) partytothecrime

he should share the big invisible watermelon

yes. but we also need someone who will fight for the environment

Not everybody who accomplished something has to run for President.

Book burner. Torch mobber. Sculpture smasher. Should be in a cage.

So let me get this straight: Media blasts Democarts for having too many candidates, while also trying to add more to the same line up... Okay I think I got it.

Another middle aged Southern White man savior🙄

Main stage for what? A 'How to take down Confederate monuments in your city' mayoral convention next year?

He should put them back and have a damn spine ! History isn’t hate. Racists !

Democrats like to destroy history. Make up their own and pass it off as the truth. Our history is our history. Good and bad. Sometimes the republicans are no better. Just ask the Bush's. No wait - they will make up stories too.

Please, we need MORE democrats. Literally every color of the rainbow and they need to start each sentence with 'as a such and such' God I can not WAIT for all the cringe

Mr. Clean!!!

I like mayors.

He took down history... Hitler did the same

No sorry, we’ve had enough old and/or white people. Time for something fresh.

Wow, he solved racism? Amazing!

Opinion | As two more Democrats edge toward 2020 runs, here’s the big question we should askIt's important to consider who could beat Trump. But there's something else we should ask too. AmyKlobuchar Democrats - Amy has the right mix of reason, rationality and strength and good DFL cred. I feel 100% confident in Amy Klobuchar for President. We won't really know what they will be like as president until they reach the WH, hence it's nice to have candidates who are politicians so we can look at their past voting records. Given what we have seen out of the WH since 2016, I can't imagine any of them would be worse. Big question... how many candidate's skeletons will come out of the closet?

Opinion | 2020 may be historic for women in more ways than oneWarren, Harris, Gillibrand, Gabbard and now Klobuchar — knowing how women suffered for suffrage, let’s savor the moment we’re in.

Analysis | Despite not doing much since losing his race, Beto O’Rourke’s popularity still commands 2020 interestThis level of support has not been granted to other Democrats who lost their races but have showed much more focus since then, like Stacey Abrams. Says who? Beto is yesterday's news. LMAO This dude's presidential aspirations already went up in smoke. Hype him up for a Senate challenge against Cornyn or whoever the GOP nominates next time. That's his only real utility.

John Weaver: Trump’s bland SOTU was aimed at 2020 voters, not CongressPresident Donald Trump delivered his second State of the Union address on Tuesday to a divided government. GOP strategist John Weaver joined THINK to discuss the night's biggest takeaways. THINK Have you seen any reports from the wall with Mexican police and military lined up shoulder to shoulder to control the latest caravan? SMH Get honest for a change. THINK So, in short, trump lies repeated in the SOTU address. THINK realDonaldTrump and his administration “wilfully abused human rights” when separating thousands of children from their families. We should not go easy on this, at all, and we must held them accountable for such terrible display of hatred. ChildrenBelongWithTheirFamilies
