President Trump Presents American Civil War History Lesson

[My Name Is Kate]

Anyone who cares to do so, can see and hear for themselves exactly what President Trump said or did not say at the Ohio rally, when he was referring to Grant and Lee. The segment is less than three minutes long.

Trump never said Grant had "an uncontrollable drinking problem during the American Civil War." It was David Lockmiller who said that in Post #3 above. Trump said Grant "drank a little bit too much" toward the beginning of the segment, then toward the end, he said Grant "had a serious drinking problem." He did not specify whether or not Grant drank during the Civil War.

Aussiemick to David Lockmiller in Post #12: "I think that you have been determined to show that Trump spoke inaccurately. In this case I think you're struggling. I get the feeling that Pres Trump is likely to give you further and more substantial opportunities. Why not wait until then?"

He can't wait.
