As we enter into Black History Month, President Donald J. Trump was caught on tape making a statement that made it seem like he believed abolitionist Frederick Douglass was still alive.

After his comment, Trump received many criticisms and jests from publications that theorized that he may not even be aware of who Frederick Douglass even was.

Over time, Trump has been condemned for not having a strong understanding of American politics in general, so this lapse in understanding of American history and about a significant African American figure has led to even more aims taken against the new President.


With this latest comment, I have taken it upon myself to compile a list of historical figures that Trump most likely still believes to be alive. I have listed them below with comments that Trump would probably make concerning each of them if he were asked his opinion about them.

1. Alexander the Great

Trump: “Fantastic guy. I model my leadership after what he’s been doing. That was how I became the President of the United States!”

2. Napoleon Bonaparte

Trump: “I received a personal phone call from Napoleon, where he congratulated me on my perfect campaign!”

3. Julius Caesar

Trump: “I’m sure he loves The Apprentice. Or at least he did before that Schwarzenegger ruined it!”


4. Jesus Christ

Trump: “That’s only what my closest friends call me.”


5. W.E.B. Du Bois

Trump: “I don’t know about W.E.B. but I do know that I thrive on the WEB because my twitter has 23.8 MILLION followers!”

6. Mahatma Gandhi

Trump: “Good man, good man. His ideas of peace are nice, but war is often necessary. ”

7. Henry VIII

Trump: “Now he knows exactly what marriage is all about!”

8. Langston Hughes

Trump: “Love his work. I have some of his art hanging in my home. Right next to my safe full of money!”

9. Kim Jong-il

Trump: “I respect him very much, I’m hoping to build a relationship with him just like the one I’ve developed with Putin. My presidency is going to be revolutionary!”

10. Frida Kahlo

Trump: “She is in support of my wall, she’s told me herself.”

11. Osama bin Laden

Trump: “Exactly the kind of man we are fighting against with my brilliant Muslim ban. We must bring him down! But these judges are slowing my progress!”

12. Malcolm X


Trump: “One of those Black Lives Matter radicalists!! Promoting violence! All Lives Matter!”


13. Mother Teresa


Trump: “She is a great mother to everyone. Just like I am the great father that the United States and the world needed!

14. Rosa Parks

Trump: “She’s making more progress than that LIAR Hillary ever did!”

15. Harriet Tubman

Trump: “I loved her in The Help.”

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you.
