Trump has been trying to build for six years the National Garden of American Heroes.
It's a sculpture garden of people he personally admires.
It's a Trump art project that he's he's actually through multiple executive orders attempted to get this done.
It's still you guys can read the whole Wikipedia page.
It's nuts.
And thousands and thousands and thousands of careers and lives in arts and culture were destroyed in pursuit of building the National Garden of American Heroes.
Yeah.
I have to laugh because I'm going to cry if I don't, Crystal.
Yeah.
Reality has put the onion out of business.
What do we take away from this?
Right.
Like what's our conclusion here?
I wrote my thesis here.
It's offensive enough that a 20 something year old white guy would get a high ranking position in a federal office with no qualifications and no experience.
It's reprehensible, however, that the specific job these young men were in charge of was upending the lives and destroying the careers of women, people of color, queer people, etc., who they believed were unqualified and being offered special privileges on the basis of their identity.
No one benefits from identity politics more than a mediocre white man.
You don't hate the system or its Epstein-class oligarchs enough.
DEI stands for diversity, equity and inclusion.
And that means diversity, equity and inclusion.
