Trump questions why U.S. Civil War had to happen

It's impossible to take an article seriously that repeats the propaganda lies.

"The events leading to the Civil War have been extensively researched, with slavery being one of the root causes."

It's disingenuous... Slavery can ONLY be considered a "cause" of the Civil War...ONLY because slavery was the "engine" of the south's cotton economy. The north didn't give a damn about slavery. There WERE slaves in the north. But slaves weren't as necessary to the north as they were to the south and their massive cotton plantations. Taking the slaves away would be like taking away modern farmers diesel tractors. The slaves were nimble fingered draft animals. Slavery CONTINUED in the northern states AFTER the "Emancipation Proclamation" which made slavery illegal ONLY in the Confederate States.

NOBODY considered the blacks human...people...and especially...equal. Lincoln "freed the slaves" to hurt the south...to RUIN the south...to bankrupt the south...so he could CONTROL the south and it's vast wealth. It had NOTHING to do with any love for black "people". They weren't included in the founding documents. Were 3/5ths of a person when they are finally forced to be mentioned. And now are criminally included as equals. Might as well give our pets equal standing too while we're at it...same thing. Congress almost passed the "Send the blacks to Africa" legislation but deemed it "too expensive"...what fools they were. Can you imagine if America had become white and stayed white?

You're losing your country...because you worried more about the poor animals being mistreated than your own kids/grandkids future.

We are NOT the same genetically.
