Two conservative analysts on Wednesday panned President Donald Trump’s latest attack on Black history during an interview on CNN. This week, a federal judge ordered the Trump administration to return a long-standing slavery exhibit to a museum in Pennsylvania after administration officials removed it last month. In the order, Judge Cynthia Rufe, who was appointed by George W. Bush, said the Trump administration was trying to “dissemble and disassemble historical truths,” CNN reported. Conservative analysts Shermichael Singleton and T.W. Arrighi reacted to the ruling on CNN’s “NewsNight” with Abby Phillip. “The Pennsylvania thing is a bit concerning to me,” Singleton said. “I don’t understand why this would be a priority for any lower-level cabinet person focusing on removing exhibitions about slavery … It’s not necessary. It’s very divisive. We have midterms coming up. We already know the economy is an issue that Republicans are struggling with. And the point that I’m trying to make here is when you’ve had a very diverse coalition, electorally speaking, in 2024, you’re going to fragment that very necessary coalition of very persuadable voters that you need to turn out because some of those folks may be, frankly, turned off by some of this.”Arrighi echoed Singleton’s sentiment. “Doubling down on that, the Obama video, his reaction to it kept the story alive for far longer than it could have been,” he said. “The buck stops at his desk. It shouldn’t have been up. I made a mistake. It’s gone. Instead, we lingered on it.”
