At least @POTUS is honest about @realDonaldTrump's desire to return to a narrative of triumph, progress, and celebration.

The culture wars continue.

Ironically, he accuses "the left" of the same practices of silencing and bullying opposition that he practices.

The projection is almost too obvious.

As expected, Howard Zinn and the #1619Project are the primary exhibits of far left conspiracies.

New to Trump's rhetorical toolbox is critical race theory.

Apparently teaching what the president doesn't like is a form of child abuse.

We are back to the National Garden of American History as one of the ways in which we'll rescue American history from the left.

Meanwhile, narrative drift continues, as Cesar Rodney becomes a household name (and Trump uses the issue as a way to batter Biden).

The 1776 Project ... sigh ... so kids love America.
