The airports were a key strategic target for Continental Army as it took the fight to the British in 1781, because Trump, apparently not a descendent of slaveholders, has his own way of doing history.
x I understand that there are media figures obsessed over an elderly president’s clear cognitive decline but they’re talking about a *different* president than Sundowny McMumbles here?

TRUMP: And again, I say, if you look at the end of the Civil War, the 1800s, it was a very turbulent time. If you take the end day, was it 1869 or whatever, but you take that exact day that’s when the case was filed and the case ended shortly thereafter. This has to do with the babies of slaves, very, very obviously. And I think we’re going to win. People didn’t, I don’t think they went about discussing it right. I came along and we, we looked and we said, wait a minute, this is wrong.
Trump said in 2019 that the Continental Army "took over the airports" from the British during the American Revolutionary War during his Fourth of July "Salute to America" speech. Also the Battle of Fort McHenry took place during the War of 1812, not the Revolutionary War..
