Laura Coates Uses Trump's Own Words to Shatter 'Woke' Smithsonian Claims: 'Couldn't Have Said It Better Myself'
(The Wrap) -snip- CNN’s Laura Coates took issue Tuesday night with President Donald Trump’s repeated claims that the Smithsonian Institute has gone “out of control” with woke content and used some of his own words from 2017 to prove him wrong.
-snip-“This museum is a beautiful tribute to so many American heroes. It’s amazing to see,” Trump said at the time. “We did a pretty comprehensive tour, but not comprehensive enough. So, [Smithsonian Secretary] Lonnie [Bunch III] I’ll be back. I told you that. Because I could stay here for a lot longer, believe me. It’s really incredible. This tour was a meaningful reminder of why we have to fight bigotry, intolerance, and hatred in all of its very ugly forms.”
-snip- The CNN anchor noted that the museum highlights the achievements of Black icons like Muhammad Ali, Louis Armstrong, Jim Brown, Gabby Douglas and Carl Lewis. “If that’s woke, then maybe woke just means telling the whole story because every exhibition that I’ve just mentioned showcases exactly what Trump says that he wants: success, brightness, a look toward the future,” Coates argued.
Responding to Trump’s 2017 remark that the museum is a “reminder of why we have to fight bigotry, intolerance, and hatred in all of its very ugly forms,” Coates concluded, “ couldn’t have said it better myself, Mr. President.”
