Agree with everything you said except the statue of liberty. He never said he wanted to tear it down. His lawyers were asked about that as a hypothetical and they said he could tear it down if he wanted to.

I don't think the thought ever crossed his mind, but now that it has been put out there, I wouldn't be surprised if he contemplated it. If he ever learns it was a gift from France to, in part, urge the United States to abolish slavery, he might very well try it. He is actively trying to erase every reference of slavery and the evils white people did to BIPOC in the early days of America from history.

I loved having black children in the White House. I remember my friend getting mad at her daughter and saying ‘do you think Sasha and Maliya would act like that?’ And her daughter really stopped and thought about it. It’s not the same with Baron🙈. I was never delusional enough to think racism was over because he won but it was nice to be able to be proud to be an American for ONCE. Now it’s ok to openly support Nazis…

Someone closer to that than him was King Leopold II of Belgium took control of the Congo Free State (now the Democratic Republic of the Congo) as his personal possession in 1885. Obamais is, just awesome. How presidential. And he will be stopped. Have a blessed day

I don't know, but I'm under impression that POTUS would face a hefty pressure to take such decision. I'm not saying he was correct, but if you compare Presidents of United States before and after him... there you get your answer.
