Kanye West Once Again Im Being Attacked for Presenting New Ideas
Kanye West has fully embraced his identity as a Donald Trump supporter, it seems, and keeps cartoon the ire and attention of social media users with his "new ideas."
Kanye appeared on "TMZ" for an interview in which he made some incendiary comments about slavery. "When you lot hear about slavery for 400 years … For 400 years? That sounds like a selection," Kanye said. "You were there for 400 years and information technology's all of y'all. It's like we're mentally imprisoned."
Social media users immediately (and hilariously) latched onto the comments, and Kanye took to Twitter as well, to double-down on the comments.

"The reason why I brought up the 400 years point is considering we tin't exist mentally imprisoned for another 400 years," Kanye wrote in a tweet. "We need free thought now. Even the argument was an case of complimentary thought It (sic) was just an idea."
"One time once more I am beingness attacked for presenting new ideas," Kanye wrote in some other tweet. Of course, many Twitter users pointed out that the idea of slavery existence a choice wasn't really a new idea, but 1 long held by white supremacists to, uh, justify slavery.
Fifty-fifty better, though, were the memes that Kanye's quote spawned. Twitter users immediately began imagining who else might say something like, "Once again I am being attacked for presenting new ideas." Pretty much the commencement person everyone landed on? Thanos (Josh Brolin), the large purple supervillain from the freshly released "Avengers: Infinity State of war."

19 Times Donald Trump and Co. Were Dislocated Most History, Including Canada Burning Down the White House (Photos)
-
Since becoming president, Donald Trump has had a lot more than occasion to talk about American history. He likes to remind people that "you know, I'm, similar, a smart person," merely he doesn't always seem to get it correct. Here are nineteen instances of Trump and his surrogates giving weirdo history lessons.
Getty Images -
1. On Frederick Douglass
During a Black History Month breakfast in Feb, after mentioning several African American historical figures Trump said, "Frederick Douglass is an example of somebody who'south washed an amazing job and is beingness recognized more and more, I notice." We're not saying Trump didn't know who Douglass was, but despite his remarks, the famed abolitionist died in 1895. -
2. On Trump's Civil War Battle Golf Course

Trump's Virginia golf form on the Potomac River includes a plaque stating the location was the site of a Ceremonious War boxing. "Many great American soldiers, both of the North and South, died at this spot," the inscription reads. "The casualties were so bully that the water would turn red and thus became known equally 'The River of Blood.'" Historians say aught significant took place at the site. -
3. On Abraham Lincoln's Political Party
Trump brought up Abraham Lincoln at the National Republican Congressional Committee Dinner in March. "Peachy president. Most people don't even know he was a Republican," Trump said. "Does anyone know? Lot of people don't know that." -
Lincoln, of form, is famously the start Republican president, although the party has changed significantly, both geographically and ideologically, from when it was started in 1854. Trump went on to suggest, "Let's take an ad, allow's use one of those PACs," to educate people about Lincoln's link to the party. He apparently was unaware the GOP very oft refers to itself equally "the Party of Lincoln."

4. On His Balloter College Victory

Since winning the 2016 presidential election, Trump and his team take repeatedly called the win "the biggest electoral college win since Ronald Reagan." It wasn't. In fact, simply 2 presidents have received fewer than Trump's 304 balloter votes since 1972 — Jimmy Carter and George W. Bush. And Trump's 304 is less than both of Barack Obama's wins, at 365 in 2008 and 332 in 2012. -
five. On His Inauguration Oversupply
Getty Images
Trump and his surrogates have maintained he had the biggest inauguration crowd in history, citing both the people on the ground at the National Mall in Washington D.C., and watching on Boob tube and online. "When I looked at the numbers that have come up in from all of the various sources, we had the biggest audience in the history of inaugural speeches," Trump told ABC News. Going by the crowd and TV numbers, though, Trump'south inauguration crowd was definitely not the biggest e'er. -
Nielsen ratings for the inauguration put TV viewership at about 31 million, or 19 percentage fewer than the number who tuned in for Obama's inauguration in 2009, The Contained reports. And a PBS timelapse video shows the National Mall was never full during the unabridged event, while shots of Obama's inaugurations bear witness the mall packed. Trump'south inauguration might make up the difference with online streaming viewers, only those numbers aren't known to the public or the media.

half dozen. On Andrew Jackson and the Civil War
Getty Images
In a Sirius XM interview with a reporter from the Washington Examiner, Trump said President Andrew Jackson would have stopped the Ceremonious War. "I mean, had Andrew Jackson been a little later you wouldn't take had the Civil War," Trump said. "He was a very tough person but he had a large eye. He was really angry that he saw with regard to the Ceremonious War, he said 'There'due south no reason for this.'" Jackson, of course, died in 1845 — sixteen years before the Civil State of war began. -
Trump took to Twitter to clarify his comments on Jackson. "President Andrew Jackson, who died xvi years before the Civil War started, saw it coming and was angry. Would never have let information technology happen!" In fact, Jackson, a slave possessor, probably would have fallen on the Confederacy'southward pro-slavery side.
Twitter -
7. On the Civil War, Why

"People don't realize, yous know, the Civil War, if y'all recollect about it, why?" Trump continued during the aforementioned interview. "People don't ask that question, but why was at that place the Civil War? Why could that one not take been worked out?" Of course, enough of people have asked "the Civil State of war, why?" The reply: slavery. -
8. On Medieval Times (Not the Restaurant)
Getty Images
In February 2016, Trump explained his view of torture and terrorism in an interview on "This Calendar week with George Stephanopoulos." "Nosotros are living in a time that'southward as evil as whatsoever time that in that location has e'er been," Trump said. "You know, when I was a immature man, I studied Medieval times. That's what they did, they chopped off heads." Trump went on to say he would authorize measures "across waterboarding" when asked if the U.s. would chop off heads under Trump. -
9. On Sweden and What Happened There
Screen Capture/The Guardian
Trump brought upwards immigration in Europe during a rally in Feb 2017. He appeared to mention some immigration-related event "last night" in Sweden that hadn't actually happened. "We've got to proceed our state safe," he said. "You lot look at what's happening in Deutschland. You look at what's happening last night in Sweden. Sweden, who would believe this? Sweden. They took in large numbers. They're having problems like they never idea possible." -
Trump later antiseptic the statement, yet again on Twitter. He said he wasn't referring to a news event that happened "last nighttime" in Sweden, but rather, a Trick News story. "My argument every bit to what's happening in Sweden was in reference to a story that was broadcast on @FoxNews concerning immigrants & Sweden," he wrote.
Twitter -
x. On being treated the most unfairly

Delivering a speech to the graduating form at the U.Due south. Coast Guard Academy, Trump said, "No politician in history, and I say this with bang-up surety, has been treated worse or more unfairly." That patently includes politicians who have actually been assassinated, which seems like information technology should count for beingness treated "unfairly." Maybe he means he's been "unfairly" given more passes on bad beliefs, similar admitting sexual assail, than any other politician. - Getty Images
-
12. On the Panama Culvert
In a coming together with Panamanian President Juan Carlos Varela, Trump seemed to kind of, sort of accept credit for the Panama Canal. "The Panama Culvert is doing quite well. I think we did a skilful job edifice it, right — a very proficient task," Trump said, to which Varela answered, "Yeah, about 100 years agone." While what Trump meant by "we" was probably "the U.s.," as Varela'south comment suggests, there's withal an air of Trump glomming on to past accomplishments that had aught to do with him. - ABC
13. On how much legislation he'south signed
Trump likes to say things are historic without actually ever checking (or perchance caring) if it's truthful. He'south said repeatedly that he's signed more than legislation than any other president, and specifically called out Harry Truman. In fact, he ranks last in legislation signed every bit of Dec 2017.
- Getty Images
14. On his "historic" defence spending increment
Trump too said at a July 2017 rally the increment to defense spending he advocated was historically high. It isn't. Ronald Reagan and George Due west. Bush both increased defence spending by more than, for two quick examples.
- Getty Images
15. On how his blessing rating wasnot historically depression
One thing about Trump'due south administration that he claimed wasn't historic was his approval rating after six months in office. An ABC News/Washington Post poll put Trump's approval at 36 per centum, which he tweeted "wasn't bad." As it turns out, it was the worst of whatsoever president in the last seventy years.

16. On the Pulse nightclub shooting
Every bit role of his push confronting gun control in the wake of the shooting at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, Trump has advocated for arming teachers and others to stop mass shootings. As Politifact reports, he as well said that another shooting, the one in June 2016 at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida, that killed 49 people, could have been prevented if someone else at that place had been carrying a gun.
-
The problem is, someone was: there was an armed police officer working at Pulse the dark of the shooting, who even exchanged gunfire with the shooter, Omar Mateen. Trump has actually claimed before that if there had been more people armed at Pulse, the shooting could accept been stopped, in 2016. At the time, Trump claimed afterwards Twitter that what he'd meant was that he wished at that place had been even more people with guns to cease the Pulse shooting.

17. On the War of 1812
Trump has been pushing to enact new tariffs on steel and aluminium imports, which are affecting not just People's republic of china and other countries Trump sees every bit competitors to the U.Due south., only also allies such as Canada. In a phone conversation with Canadian Prime number Minister Justin Trudeau that got somewhat heated over the tariffs, CNN reports, Trump brought upward the War of 1812, claiming that Canadians burned down the White Firm during that conflict.
-
Trump wasn't wrong that the White House was burned down in the War of 1812 -- that did happen. Blaming Canada doesn't make a ton of sense, though. Information technology was British troops that burned down the White Firm, since the U.S. was at war with England for the two-yr conflict. Canada was a colony at the fourth dimension, and then was pulled into the state of war. A lot of information technology was as well fought in Canada. But blaming Canada for the White Firm doesn't actually track.

18. Kellyanne Conway On the Bowling Greenish Massacre

Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway invented a terrorist assail that never happened when she mentioned the "Bowling Green Massacre" in a February interview with MSNBC's Chris Matthews. Conway was attempting to justify Trump's ban on travelers from vii predominantly Muslim countries, and claimed the media hadn't covered the attack. As the Washington Post reports, Conway besides mentioned the massacre, which never took identify, in two other interviews. -
nineteen. Sean Spicer On the Holocaust

White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer got into trouble when he compared Syria'south Bashar al-Assad and Adolf Hitler when discussing Trump'south decision to bomb a Syrian airfield in response to a gas attack against civilians. "...Someone as despicable as Hitler who didn't even sink to using chemic weapons," Spicer said during a daily press briefing. Of course, the employ of gas to murder millions of German Jews and other minority groups from within Germany and Europe was central to the Holocaust. -
Spicer went on to clarify that he did, in fact, know near the Holocaust. "I retrieve when you come up to sarin gas, there was no -- he was not using the gas on his own people the aforementioned fashion that Assad is doing," Spicer said. "I mean, at that place was clearly, I understand your point, thank you. Cheers, I appreciate that. There was not in the, he brought them into the Holocaust middle, I understand that." The historically accurate term for "Holocaust center" is "concentration camp," and at least 200,000 people killed in them were Jewish German citizens.
