Who told him to always take the side of the devil?

Next he'll be defending introduction of German monuments to Hitler.

Trump, Pelosi at loggerheads over Confederate monuments in US South

President Donald Trump on Wednesday ruled out a change to US military bases named after Civil War Confederate leaders, pushing back on pressure to rid public places of monuments honoring the once pro-slavery South.

"These Monumental and very Powerful Bases have become part of a Great A merican Heritage, and a history of Winning, Victory, and Freedom," Trump said in a tweet.

"My Administration will not even consider renaming these Magnificent and Fabled Military Installations. Our history as the Greatest Nation in the World will not be tampered with," he wrote.

. . . .

Ten bases honouring generals from the secessionist South, which lost the Civil War and its struggle to preserve slavery, are in the spotlight. They include the famous Fort Bragg, Fort Hood in Texas and Fort Benning in Georgia.

He may need to veto something as it looks like enough GOPsters in the senate support changing these names to pass something.

Senate Armed Services on collision course with Trump over Confederate names

The Senate Armed Services Committee on Wednesday voted to require the Pentagon to rename military bases and other assets named after Confederate generals, a move that puts the Republican-led panel on a collision course with the White House.

The committee adopted an amendment to the annual Pentagon policy bill that gives the Defense Department three years to remove the names of Confederate generals from U.S. military assets, according to a source familiar with the closed-door proceedings.

The language, adopted by voice vote as President Donald Trump preemptively threatened to veto any defense bill that did just that, affects massive bases like Fort Bragg in North Carolina and Fort Benning in Georgia. 

But it also goes further and includes everything from ships to streets on Defense Department property.

Full disclosure.

I personally oppose ending commemoration of Washington, Jefferson, or even Columbus, leading figures of the history of the US or the New World, because of their - grave, indeed - sins since they are not celebrated, commemorated, held up to admiration, or even merely memorialized for their sins.

But I quite agree that celebration of historic figures precisely for their sins is not acceptable.

And I personally oppose leftist indigenism regarding the Americas, Africa, or anywhere at all.
