You feel that Colin Kaepernick disrespects the troop but no problem with Russia disrespecting the troops.

Imagine being a leftie who thinks this is the hill they want to die on politically.
Last night at Rushmore, Trump droned on and on about how 'those lefties' want to destroy the legacy of George Washington...Thomas Jefferson...Teddy Roosevelt....Robert E Lee...and Abraham Lincoln.
See? This is really about an assault on our American heritage, not Confederate statues.*

The only way that you’ll find it is if you have a degree in proctology.
I read a couple of articles and didn't find anything that said he injected Lee's name among the 4 on Rushmore.
Then prove it. I just checked the cesspool know as CNN and not one story in this, and they’d have it plastered if it were true.
They do however have TWO articles kissing the ass of China and throwing cover for the Communists to ding Trump.
The people over there are pathetic and they’d be running this as a headline banner if it actually happened
It didn't happen. Shuckster heard something that wasn't said. TDS is the only explanation.
The wifey and I were listening live on TV last night and later I noted his brief mention of Robert E Lee here on the WC after his speech was over.
That said, I haven't gone back to listen to the 2 hour video that's available online to confirm it. While I still believe I heard him mention Lee, I'll admit my level of doubt has gone up because I agree with 85 that somebody besides me would have likely noted it by now.
Future generations will look back on his presidency without the lens of the media, so he will likely be remembered as a much better president than he's considered to be right now.

Robert E Lee is not the villain he is portrayed to be in schools. Maybe he should be on Mt rushmore instead of Lincoln.

Lies! Lee betrayed his oath to this country. It's a shame that we didn't hang him. Traitors get no quarter.
I suppose we could refer to some quotes from the "good guys" that won the war:
The only good Indian is a dead Indian
We must act with vindictive earnestness against the Sioux, even to their extermination, men, women and children... during an assault, the soldiers cannot pause to distinguish between male and female, or even discriminate as to age.
The more Indians we can kill... the less will have to be killed the next war, for the more I see of these Indians, the more convinced I am that they all have to be killed or be maintained as a species of paupers.
Sometimes the good guys lose, but the winners always get to write the history books.
Is that the measure we should use to determine if they were right? Sounds very soviet to me.
I’m from the north originally and I’m not for slavery and losers.
Therefore, I’ve never connected with anything related to the confederacy. Always seemed to be kind of Redneck to me. Honestly, I’m not big on tearing stuff down, but I wouldn’t care if the memories were erased. Just don’t fukc up Mount Rushmore and Gettysburg, because they are on my bucket list

More "good guy" quotes:
I can hardly believe that the South and North can live in peace, unless we can get rid of the negroes ... I believe that it would be better to export them all to some fertile country with a good climate, which they could have to themselves.
Our republican system was meant for a homogeneous people. As long as blacks continue to live with the whites they constitute a threat to the national life. Family life may also collapse and the increase of mixed breed bastards may some day challenge the supremacy of the white man.
My paramount objective in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not to either save or destroy Slavery.
