Trump Attacks Smithsonian For Focus On 'How Bad Slavery Was' And, Boy, The Responses [View all]

Donald Trump was the subject of much internet mockery on Tuesday after he griped in a Truth Social post about the Smithsonian Institution (checks notes) portraying slavery as a bad thing.

In the post, the president lashed out at America’s museums for being “the last remaining segment of ‘WOKE,’” before singling out the Smithsonian as “OUT OF CONTROL” for discussing “how horrible our Country is, how bad Slavery was, and how unaccomplished the downtrodden have been,” but nothing about “Success, nothing about Brightness, nothing about the Future.”

Trump’s animosity toward the Smithsonian is nothing new.

So naturally, people blasted Trump for complaining about the Smithsonian putting slavery in a bad light.
