The US President Donald Trump spoke on Mount Rushmore on Independence Day. He devoted his speech to the situation that has developed in the country.
“The lawlessness that we see on the streets of cities, which in all cases are liberal democrats, is the predictable result of ideological treatment in education, journalism and other cultural institutions. Against all the laws of society and nature, our children in schools are taught to hate their own country and believe that the men and women who built it were not heroes, but villains. A radical look at American history is a web of lies. Everything that is worthy of respect is removed, all virtues are hidden, all motives are misrepresented, all facts are distorted, and every flaw is exaggerated until the story is destroyed and disfigured beyond recognition.
This movement (Black Lives Matter) openly attacks the heritage of everyone on Mount Rushmore. They desecrate the memory of Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and Roosevelt. Today we will restore the true position of history”, – he said.
In the United States, protests have crossed all reasonable boundaries; there is no longer any talk of love for the country and its heritage.
