President Donald Trump tweeted on Thursday that it was "sad" that the United States is tearing down Confederate statues because they represent "the history and culture of our great country."
But where was he when other "historically significant" monuments were being torn down months ago?

Where was Trump then to rail against the removal of these statues, as he is now doing with Confederate monuments?
