Donald Trump said Tuesday that he has ordered his attorneys to conduct a review of Smithsonian museums, calling their portrayal of U.S. history too negative and focused too much on “how bad Slavery was.”

Trump said he would subject the museums to “the exact same process” his administration has conducted of universities, with the goal of making the Smithsonian less “woke.”

    I get what you’re saying but it came off really poorly without the /s. But I don’t /s myself.

    To rephrase your point: it wasn’t a bad system of brutal exploitation, human trafficking, rape, murder, and ruthless capitalism; it was actually very good at what it did. Why wouldn’t he celebrate it?
