WASHINGTON (DC News Now) — Some artifacts and exhibits are being removed from the National Museum of African American History and Culture. It comes a month after President Trump’s executive order to remove what he calls “improper ideology” from Smithsonian museums. Tourists travel from across the country to see the National Museum of African American […]
Watch the Americans stand by and let this happen. They want this.
~46% of Americans are republican and strongly support trump no matter what he does-- even now his support amongst republicans is extremely high around social and wedge issues.
~45% of Americans are democrats, and of those, ~55% are in support of progressive causes, while the remainder ~45% of dems are centrist or lean conservative-- mainly concerned with preserving their current rights and daily way of life. Although they are a minority of dems, the non-progressives control the party’s legal apparatus so the democrats are a house very dvided so are unlikely to be winning any elections anytime soon. The centrists have proven that they’d much rather lose than let the progressives take control of the party. The math shows us that just 24.75% of the country is progressive-- these are people who’d care to keep the black history museum open.
The independents (not dem or republican) usually fall between republican and Dem centrist, so they likely don’t accrue to progressive numbers in this case.
So probably just over 75% of Americans want this or dont care to fight this. You can only trust 1 in 4 Americans to be against this on principle. And those 1 in 4 dont have a political party that will loyally rally around their causes-- especially this far from an election.

A lot of us dont want any of this, but also arent either the autocrat in charge, the billionaires who bought him, nor are we the military that can stop him.
As much as a lot of us would stop this immediately if we could, we also dont need to let Trump have his Tienammen Square moment. The military should have removed him the moment it was clear that he is hell bent on destabilizing our country, our region, and the world at large.
MAGAts do. Nobody else. But if I have to choose between some museum artifacts and trying to keep myself and my family safe, I’m putting my efforts to the latter. So you can sit there comfy and judge like some armchair revolutionary, but you’re wrong.
