RFK Jr condemns the removal of Confederate monuments

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has condemned the removal of Confederate statues, saying he had a “visceral reaction against” the destruction of monuments honoring southern leaders from the Civil War.

Robert E. Lee, the top Confederate general, had “extraordinary qualities of leadership” that deserve to be celebrated, Kennedy said Friday in an interview for the Timcast IRL, which is hosted by conservative podcaster Tim Pool.

“There were heroes in the Confederacy who didn’t have slaves,” Kennedy said in response to a question about the monuments. “And, you know, I just, I just have a visceral reaction to this destroying history. I don’t like it. I think we should celebrate who we are. And that, you know, we should celebrate the good qualities of everybody.”

Sure, he is making a big play for the southern, white, Republican demographic. But what surprises me is the line - “There were heroes in the Confederacy who didn’t have slaves,” I mean, even in the history of pandering, this is a bit much.

The Confederacy was founded with the explicit goal of preserving and expanding the institution of slavery. Its leaders and soldiers fought to maintain slavery and white supremacy.

This is similar to some guy claiming about the Nazis - "There are some fine people on both sides".

He clearly is a racist. He clearly is a bigger threat to Republicans than Democrats.
 
And he waited this long to say this? Which just coincidentally coincides with his run for the presidency? What? Does he think he has a shot at Trump Supporters. oh..pun.
hmm. A shot at Trump supporters...well...some one did shoot trump supporters while aiming at President Trump.
 
Democrats thrive on chaos..they say so themselves..... They made an attempt to sassinate the opposition..and FAILED thank God, so causing chaos in the Dem convention is nothing.
And MAGA thrives on lies and stupidity. Trump is done but the patriots in this country aren't done yet, they will be done when MAGA is dead and buried.Any way possible. We all know we have only killed the germ but the sick body has to go also, buried deep and forever.
 
1,000 military tribunals in which Confederates, both regulars and guerrillas, were charged with various violations of the laws of war –
But they weren't charged as traitors. And why did you answer for the other guy? You sound just like him.

Could the right be any more stupid then their reaction to Harris. They hate women they hate blacks they hate everything. and now we can watch it being shit out off their mouths in their response to Harris. They are done. toast Shitpants is history , that means he will be going directly to jail after his next trial, he knows that and will ask his microbes to kill for him and they will without a doubt. with every patriot in this country against them. These Gun Bubbas who swore the only way that their guns will be taken away from them is from their cold dead hands , will be shitting in their pants and pissing down their legs throwing their guns away as they try to give up, while the American tank drives over their stupid asses. To the sound of my favorite sound , CRUNCH!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Not as traitors.
Hey fuck head you said they weren't prosecuted and said nothing about for being traitors loser. You just said they weren't prosecuted. and they were and I proved it , as in proving your wrong and just another MAGA bullshitter. that's the only point derived from this communication from me to you.
