Using the National Archives Museum that houses the country’s founding documents as a venue, the president delivered what amounted to a campaign speech on Constitution Day that railed against “critical race theory” and declared in a message to his conservative base: “We will never submit to tyranny.” He openly ignored the United States’ complex history of slavery and appeared to appeal to parts of his base that deal in widely dismissed conspiracy theories.
...
The president signed an order setting up a new commission to push this so-far undefined “patriotic education.”
Mr Trump is gaining ground on Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, slicing his leads in battleground states in half since late-July. That coincides with his turn to a re-election message largely based on a description of himself as fighting black protesters as the “law-and-order president.”
In bizarre speech at National Archives, Trump warns of left-wing ‘segregation’ and pushes ‘patriotic education’
This is beyond weird. It's downright creepy.
Normally it takes a few posts before Godwins Law kicks in, first time I have seen the OP start with it.

It's not as bad as that racist training nonsense left over from the Obama administration.

Tell that to Mr "Patriotic Education."
It's pretty obvious that "patriotic education" is a Hitler Youth thing.
You are partly correct, normally just reading the title tells you all you need to know about his posts. Just thought this one needed a little poking at, didn't want him to feel neglected. :lol:
He recently attacked racial diversity training too. I guess he is trying to fight for white voters now
In austere, starkly divisive remarks, President Trump on Thursday said he would create a commission to promote "patriotic education" and announced the creation of a grant to develop a "pro-American curriculum." The move is largely political — a reaction to a growing push by some academics for schools to teach an American history that better acknowledges slavery and systemic racism.

I can’t believe this is happening in America. The president wants to scrub history, because facts are not patriotic enough.
This is exactly why white supremacists support Trump. They think teaching the history of slavery promotes white guilt and white shame, and gives non whites the power of the race card. They compare people wanting confederate statues removed to Isis, and turn around and act like straight up fascists.
I hope Trump does not have the power to change education standards without Congress. This is so messed up.

Who is against teaching about slavery? How could one not?
One can, of course, object to the notion of "systemic racism" or "white privilege."

Wasn't it called "civics" when we were taught it?
Calamity calls everyone he doesn't like a Nazi.
This one is especially masterful, as he uses Nazi propaganda tactics to accuse someone of being a Nazi.
Why do we need to pay some yo-yo who knows how much money to shovel white guilt?
George Washington would run him through.
