the fake news media need to do a better job of translating trumpese. 'considering it' dont mean poo poo.

Kinda like how when Sean Spicer says 'the President has been very clear on this' it means he has been completely incoherent, or when he says 'I'll have to get back to you on that' it means he's never going to talk about it again.

The South had zero interest in this, though. They wanted an expansionist slaver empire that covered the Western Hemisphere.

e: the shooting started before the Secession Crisis even kicked off in late 1860. Any more "compromises" were just kicking the can a tiny bit further down the road, especially after Dredd Scott.

Abolishing slaver was kind of a favor to the South. It was already being ended elsewhere and you don't want to be dragging that bullshit around with you through the next decades.

The Trump administration is discontinuing a signature girls education initiative championed by former first lady Michelle Obama, according to officials.

The "Let Girls Learn" program, which she and President Barack Obama started in 2015 to facilitate educational opportunities for adolescent girls in developing countries, will cease operation immediately, according to an internal document obtained by CNN.

Andrew Jackson was super mad about the civil war, which started like 25 years after he died

Thank Jeezus that I don't have to worry about anything happening 25 years into my future!

TRUMP

Me, a conservative: Actually Trump was praising Jackson's foresight in addressing the early issues and proto conflicts that were the seed of the civil war, 25 years in advance as a forward thinking statesmen who looked out for the long term health of the nation

Me, also: Global warming is a hoax and we need to divert all available resources to saving Coal Miners jobs.

Even after slavery was abolished, it was barely abolished. Congratulations, you're free! Also we can lynch you for any reason, congregating with 1 or more other folks such as yourself is a crime to be paid with hard labor, you may not vote or leave the county, and if you want to eat food you're welcome to work at my farm so that I might pay you in food and housing. What a coincidence, I happen to have accommodations for you already! The South bled hundreds of thousands solely for the right to say they legally owned humans as opposed to only owning them as a matter of fact.
