https://www.yahoo.com/news/joe-biden-calls-trump-countrys-225422861.htmlLiberals 2016: "Trump put up a picture of Andrew Jackson, a devout racist who terrorized native americans."
Joe 2020: "he's the first, we've had 44 great fucking guys in there"
Slave owners (some "good" some BAD), war with natives, trail of tears, perpetuation of slavery from cowardice in the 1820s-1850s, Japanese internment camps, Antisemetic presidents, presidents who green-lighted fake Marijuana propaganda to blame it on mexicans, etc.
Andrew Jackson only hated the British and Central Banking. He was a bastard, but he would as often lead a group of slaves or indians into battle as he would conquer them.
The indians for what its worth sought to use european power to settle old scores between themselves. And that they did to good effect. They did not view the Europeans as a threat despite people of the Iroquois visiting france, etc.
Only Tecumseh got it that whites were evil and were going to conquer. If you're Cherokee then you have reason to hate the dude, only on the same way you hate Genghis Khan though. Andrew Jackson was an American Khan. He unilaterally conquered Florida and led a slave-indian army and defeated the British in the Battle of New Orleans.
I guess feel free to cancel him though
And yes him and Van Buren formed the Democratic party after a very crooked arrangement put John Quincy Adams in the White House. It is based on the radical idea that votes should matter.

Howabout defending your own fucking house with a fake gun?
How often do you do this? I would move.
