Trump praises “the murderer of slaves” in the American Civil War



 US President Donald Trump was impressed by populist President Andrew Jackson, who ruled the United States in the 19th century, hung his picture in the Oval Office and put a wreath on his grave.

In an interview with Sirius XM radio, Trump hinted that “if Jackson had ruled for a short time after his term, the civil war might have been avoided.” Trump wondered why the war had taken place.

“If Andrew Jackson had ruled for a longer period than the civil war, he was a very tough man, but he had a big heart,” Trump told the radio.

It was not clear what Jackson would do, Trump believed, to prevent the civil war that broke out between 1861 and 1865.

Jackson was the seventh President of the United States of America from 1829 to 1837, before which he was the military governor of Florida in 1921 and commander of the forces in the battle of New Orleans in 1815, and was famous for his strength and strength.

He was the first US president to be born from a poor family. During his tenure, he signed the Native American Deportation Act, allowing the US government to deport them to the West using violence. Many of the displaced were killed during their so-called “road of tears.”

Jackson’s picture is drawn on a 20-dollar coin, but will be replaced by a black lady in 2020 by a decision from the US Treasury Department.
