LinkLinksOpinion Washington Post Editorial Board: D.C. played right into Trump’s hands with its clumsy report on renaming facilities By Editor On Sep 11, 2020 Last updated Sep 11, 2020 23 Share D.C. MAYOR Muriel E. Bowser (D) may be right that President Trump and other Republicans deliberately misinterpreted a report from the District’s committee on renaming schools, buildings and other government facilities. No one ever recommended that the Washington Monument or other federal memorials be bulldozed. The District, though, played right into the hands of Mr. Trump and other critics with the clumsy rollout of a report that, while well intentioned, was overbroad in its recommendations and failed to distinguish between historical figures with no admirable characteristics and those who made significant contributions to society. 23 Share FacebookTwitterReddItWhatsAppEmailPrint
