No one knows the Civil War quite like Donald Trump - Jon Stewart

[darrylbrooks]

This is why he blocked access to his school transcripts!

I still just can’t fathom how anyone can witness that man talk and think “yeah, he ought to be in charge of things”.

I was not born nor raised in the US but in high school we had to memorize and recite Pres. Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address in an English class. Fast forward, as a US citizen, it is appalling to hear a former US President talk about Gettysburg this way.

This is right up there with Trump’s response to the question “what’s your favorite verse from the bible”

I will say one positive thing about The Donald. He never fails to make me feel like a freakin GENIUS. The utter stupidity is absolutely astonishing.

The loss of General Hannibal Lector in Gettysburg was something else. Many people said he was decapitated by a rampart. Others said a Venezuelan. Fine arguments on both sides.

One of my relatives fought at Gettysburg on the Union side. My family has about 30 of his letters that he wrote home including a description of the Gettysburg battle. One word you won’t find in there is beautiful.

Trump. Is one of those kids that when we look and listen to him. People just say. "Well, bless his heart, HE'S a SPECIAL ONE"

[creepystares]

perfect encapsulation of how he speaks about any topic, from hurricanes to random thoughts.

[chrispaschal]

"I love the poorly educated!" And the poorly educated roared with approval and applause.

When you have to write a 1000 word essay and you just start adding adjectives in random places. 😢

I was volunteering there when Trump came to the battlefield. He got out of the car on Cemetery Ridge for 6 minutes, had some photos taken, got back in, left and never came back. He doesn’t know a thing about Gettysburg or any other place where Americans died to protect and improve the US.

[colmanpm]

I saw photos, as an English school history lesson on Gettysburg. I've never got them out of my mind. 'Beautiful'??? Are you crazy Trump?

[ahumanbeing]

I LITERALLY laughed to tears.🤣🤣 The Battle of Gettysburg was not only the bloodiest battle during the American Civil War, but also the bloodiest battle on American soil EVER, with 51, 116 casualties. And Trump described it as "beautiful" and uttered "wow". That sounded like a psychopath with a morbid interest in blood.

[Lucas-pvwn]

I had two grandfathers that fought at Gettysburg, and I don't think they would characterize it as any of the above.

[roymartin]

I am so inspired by that speech I think I'll run up to him with tears in my eyes and say SIR SIR I just love youuu

[janicemccoy]

That’s sad and scary people still want him to be president. He should only be allowed to mop the floors in prison.

[pamelaibarra]

Jon's "are you f*cking for real" face never gets old

[darleneponder]

Word salad donny. How can anyone think yeah, I want him running the country

[springsprite]

I know that i didnt vote for Trump, but when i hear moments like this, im truly ashamed ANY American voted for Trump.
