Donald Trump’s “Garden of American Heroes” was always a hokey face saving token gesture to nationalist and populist voters who were enraged by the destruction of hundreds of our historic monuments by Antifa and BLM mobs. It would have cost Joe Biden nothing politically to let it stand. Everything that Donald Trump did as president was bad though in the eyes of progressive activists so it all must go.
“President Joe Biden on Friday revoked several of the executive orders issued in his predecessor’s last year in office that were penned to address conservative cultural grievances, including the sculpture garden he proposed on July 4 at an event at Mount Rushmore.
Biden rescinded a pair of executive orders tied to the creation of what former President Donald Trump envisioned as a “National Garden of American Heroes,” one of which was signed on Jan. 18, just days before Trump was set to leave office. …
“These statues are not ours alone, to be discarded at the whim of those inflamed by fashionable political passions; they belong to generations that have come before us and to generations yet unborn,” read the text of another one of Trump’s orders that Biden nixed, which directed the Justice Department to prioritize prosecuting people who vandalize federal monuments.
On Friday, Biden also killed another Trump executive order issued last summer that sought to protect monuments in the wake of Black Lives Matter protests. The order threatened to hold back federal funding for state and local governments that “fai[l] to protect” monuments and called on the Justice Department to prioritize prosecution of those who harmed monuments. …”
“President Joe Biden has revoked a trio of executive orders issued by former President Donald Trump that sought to punish vandalism of statues and to build a new National Garden of American Heroes.
A July 2020 order envisioned a National Garden of American Heroes that “should be located on a site of natural beauty that enables visitors to enjoy nature, walk among the statues, and be inspired to learn about great figures of America’s history.”
A follow-up Trump order in January specified that the statue garden would honor, among other notables, Kobe Bryant, Julia Child, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Alex Trebek. …”
It wasn’t just the stillborn “Garden of American Heroes.”
It is not like we are going to be pissed off that cringe statues of Kobe Bryant and Crispus Attucks and the Notorious RBG and Frederick Douglass and Duke Ellington and Susan B. Anthony and Aretha Franklin and Muhammad Ali and Whitney Houston and Harper Lee and Rosa Parks will never be built. Trump never proposed to build a single Confederate monument in his “National Garden of American Heroes” to replace the ones that were built by our ancestors which were destroyed by the mobs last summer.
It says a lot though about Joe Biden and the mentality of the progressive movement that what was nixed was so intolerable. The proposed statues were mostly blacks, women, inventors, musicians, Indians, etc. Trump wanted to build statues of Milton Friedman and Woody Guthrie. The list of great Americans to be honored in the “National Garden of American Heroes” read like it was created by some cuck from Prager University. Biden also rescinded the executive order that protected existing monuments from violent mobs and Trump’s symbolic executive order on social media censorship. He rescinded a Trump proclamation that blocked immigrants deemed to be a financial burden on our health care system.
The message that Donald Trump sent with his “National Guardian of American Heroes” was that he was weak on crime and wouldn’t do anything to stop the Antifa and BLM mobs that were destroying our monuments. He was also a cringe conservative civnat who was afraid to vigorously defend our past. The message that Joe Biden is sending by rescinding his executive orders is that he stands for wokeness, cosmopolitanism, denigrating our ancestors, lawless mobs, censorship and open borders.
Note: As you can probably tell, I don’t like Trump or Biden.
Uncle Joe also welcomed a sextuplet of illegal aliens into the White House today. It was very touching watching our future replacements being treated like the brown and black kings and queens they are as the President forbade the use of the term illegal aliens in all future government dispatches referring to them only as “undocumented future americans”. Getting back to your article on infrastructure and taxes moments like this make me proud to fork over fifty percent of my income to the government. I want these BIPOC people to feel welcome who cares if it means i cant afford to properly fix my broken arm because of lousy health insurance or drive a mile without a flat from potholes
Petty, spiteful, pathetic.
Trump actually perfectly encapsulates Boomer conservatism. On a very deep emotional level they’re committed to the lie of colorblind conservatism. They truly believe it. Truly. They NEED for it to be real. They love the newspapers, radio, cable news, celebrities, and all that shit that’s dying off to everyone under 40.
Oh yeah, and he’s a fucking coward who sucks cow testicles.
Excellent comment Jimmy. It is what i am always complaining about my Aunts and parents except i dont think they actually believe it. The will insist race doesnt matter only culture but every now and then the facade slips and their true colors come out. They are confused and lazy.
About the age thing i would say 55 and under. Most middle and younger Gen Xers are a lot more hip to reality than Boomers but then again I still see 25 and 40 year olds talking about legal immigration and content of character so who knows
Gen Xers were the first generation being ripped off by Boomers and they know it. Gen Xers fought the Middle East wars for those ghouls and got nothing in return.
I know the Boomers in my family: die-hard Dump nut-huggers; adamantly refuse to acknowledge the reality of race. The women are the worst in this regard by far. One was telling how much she’d hated Obongo; I called him a “black bastard” or somesuch – “I wasn’t against him because of his RACE”, she dutifully regurgitated like a good Fux watcher.
Maybe not, but he implemented the policies you hated him for because he was against YOUR race, fool…
Not everything that Trump did was bad in the eyes of the Biden regime. I notice that neither sanctions on Iran nor the green light to Golan Heights settlements were rescinded.
