Having a cheese party sounds like the best thing Andrew Jackson ever did.

A nationalist spectacle. The All-Saints-Day of America, except, like you said, boring.

Nope. Columbus Day still worse. It's also the actual federal holiday, where Indigenous Peoples' Day is a city- and state-based one, so, unfortunately, it's officially still Columbus Day. And it's 100% worse.

When I was young, my mom would sometimes celebrate Washington’s Birthday by making a cherry pie. It was very tasty.

That mount vernon article is one of the saddest things I’ve ever read, only to be swiftly trounced by the obungler’s grand website update of 2015.

Presidents Day doesn't have any traditions? HOW DARE YOU! When am I supposed to know that sheets will be on sale at Macy's?

The presidents faces at Mount Rushmore are well done busts. Most certainly. The thing is when you go to mount Rushmore- the personalities do not really fit the place/ space. For me and I am not at all woke- it’s the faces of Crazy horse, sitting Bull the Indian chiefs that should rightfully being memorialized. It is what it is one thing it is is impressive- USA all the way

Jesus, this column by Jack M. is the sort of uber-woke trash and garbage that electorally leads to progressive causes to go the drain.

What a typical smug America-hating White Woke snot Jack M is.

Talk about Georghe Washington - and it's only about slavery?

Talk about July 4 - and it’s awful because all smart people hate America?

Talk about Thanksgiving - and it's all about Native Americans?

Seriously, I almost threw up reading this column.

It's quite clear that Jack is also probably one of those DSA types, self-proclaimed uber-woke clowns who also hate Jews (or is himself a self-hating Jew) and despises Israel.

I am sure that Jack probably is a BIG Hamas fan, had probably had orgasms and moaned with pleasure on October 7th as he read about all the Israelis butchered.

Seriously, if Jack is representative of the mainstream Left (which he is not) who can blame anyone who does not despise America for not wanting to vote for his kind of America-hating crap?

Isn't a subscription required for commenting on this site? If so, did you actually pay money just so that you could write this? Did you also buy Nike shoes just to burn them after Colin Kaepernick starting kneeling during the National Anthem? I have so many questions.

Ah. Seems like a weak point in the system.
