Where's Columbus, Timbo? Governor Walz Tries to Call Out 'Erasing History,' Trips on His Hypocrisy

As we predicted and have already reported today, the left is throwing yet another tantrum, this time regarding the Trump administration's request to have several Smithsonian museums review their content ahead of America's semiquincentennial in 2026.

Of course, they are all using the same talking points, as the left always does. If the left didn't have a script to follow, they'd sound like ... well, they'd sound like Joe Biden before happy meds time or Kamala Harris after happy wine time.

'TRUMP ERASING HISTORY! OH -- EM -- GEEEEEE!'

Nothing of the sort is happening, obviously, but it is fun to watch. Particularly because it highlights the left's hypocrisy, since they have been 100 percent enthusiastic about vandalizing and tearing down statues and monuments in the past.

Last night, Scott Jennings trounced Maxwell Frost about this, seeing as how Frost once demanded the removal of the Statue of Liberty.

But more Democrats keep chiming in, blissfully ignorant of (or at least not caring about) their own history.

Today, Tampon Tim Walz was one of the latest to scream about erasing history. And, just like every other time he has opened his mouth, he stepped on a giant rake.

If you’re trying to erase history, you’re on the wrong side of it. https://t.co/QNuUv1kBix

Oh, we bet he thought that sounded clever in his pudgy little head as he was typing it. Profound, even.

Say, Governor Walz. Since you brought up erasing history, have you ever heard of a guy named Christopher Columbus?

But there is an interesting aspect about Trump's request of the Smithsonian. (And that's all it was. A request. The Smithsonian is not part of the executive branch. They are not obligated to comply, another fact the Democrats always omit. They have said they would work with the White House on this effort, though.)

Earlier today, we reported how even some at MSNBC have begun to understand how Trump trapped Democrats into defending violent crime after he federalized law enforcement in Washington, DC, this week. And every Democrat with a microphone or an X account stepped directly into the trap.

By asking the Smithsonian to review its exhibits and materials to make sure they reflect America and not divisive ideologies, it looks like Trump set another trap that the Democrats have plunged right into.

They have to oppose him. Because hating Trump is their only reason for living.

And in opposing him, they reveal not only their hypocrisy about 'erasing history' but their true hatred of all that makes, and has made, America great.

We're not sure if that's 4-D chess from Trump, or if the left in America is just that dumb.

(Yeah, it's probably the dumb thing.)
