How Come There Are No Statues of Benedict Arnold? I Thought We Loved Traitors?

[AFrench2]

There are hundreds of Confederate statues, right? So obviously America loves its traitors....why no Benedict Arnold statues?

Why no schools named after Benedict Arnold?

Different type of traitor, he helped a foreign power, where as "our" type of traitor just waged war with the US.

Anyway, why are we putting Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill?

She was an unrepentant criminal that stole away with people's legal property.

The Boot Monument is an American Revolutionary War memorial located in Saratoga National Historical Park, New York. It commemorates Major General Benedict Arnold's service at the Battles of Saratoga in the Continental Army, but does not name him.
