I just know what happened because as I was leaving last night, the entire crew was sitting in a circle, sobbing and hugging each other, and saying, "We don't deserve this," which just between us, some of them do. [ Laughter ] Second, there's nothing more humiliating than being carried away on a horse, in the air. When you're sitting astride a horse on the ground, you look like a noble hero, but when you're sitting on one in the sky, getting lifted up by a crane, you look like a Porta-Potty getting hauled away after Burning Man or a guy who glued himself to his horse and now can't get out the front door. "Oh, it happened again." "Raymond?" [ Laughter ] Anyone who loves America should be watching this scene and celebrating along with the crowd. A monument to a traitor who fought for an evil cause -- the cause of slavery -- white supremacy, and who tried to destroy the United States finally has been taken down, but you'll never guess who had a slightly different take on things. -Former President Donald Trump issued a statement calling the removal a, quote, "complete desecration" and lamenting that Lee was not available to lead the United States in Afghanistan. -Trump said in a statement, quote, "If only we had Robert E. Lee to command our troops in Afghanistan, that disaster would have ended in a complete and total victory many years ago. What an embarrassment we are suffering because we don't have the genius of a Robert E. Lee!" -First of all, dingus, you're from Queens. It's pretty hard to remake yourself as a good old boy when you sound like a super in Astoria. "You know what this [Bleep] apartment needs? Some freakin' magnolias. Oh!" [ Laughter ] Seriously, what do you mean it would have ended in victory if Lee was in charge? He lost. He's famous for losing. But, ah, yes, if only Robert E. Lee had been in charge in Afghanistan, then surely he would have said something inspirational, like, "Is that a missile?! All I have is a bayonet, and I'm glued to my horse! Get me out of here!" Trump also called it "a beautiful piece of bronze sculpture." And if Trump ever calls anything beautiful, you know it's the opposite. Look at his apartment. It looks like the set of an 'NUMBER_TOKENs game show called "Gold Rush." Of course, I wouldn't recommend taking history lessons from a guy who, among other things, praised Nazis, sowed an insurrection where rioters carried the Confederate flag, thought Frederick Douglass was still alive, didn't know why the Civil War happened in the first place, and thought there were airports during the Revolutionary War. -The Continental Army suffered a bitter winter of Valley Forge, found glory across the waters of the Delaware, and seized victory from Cornwallis of Yorktown.
