Everyone is, quite rightly, taking issue with Trump's complaints about a museum saying "how bad slavery was" - but it's also worrying that he is annoyed that a MUSEUM is saying "nothing about the future."
NEWS: Trump says the Smithsonian is “WOKE” and “OUT OF CONTROL” because they talk about “how bad slavery was,” and says he has instructed his attorneys to stop this at museums in D.C.
