Upon the removal of the statue of Robert E. Lee from atop his granite perch in Richmond, Virginia, the forty-fifth president of the United States had this to say,
” If only we had Robert E. Lee to command our troops in Afghanistan, that disaster would have ended in a complete and total victory many years ago. What an embarrassment we are suffering because we don’t have the genius of a Robert E. Lee!”
He may have confused the two generals and the sides they fought on.
Or, it is just something else we didn’t know he didn’t know until he told us.
