Who needs to read books when you got TV?

First time I’ve seen this described as “restorationist”. The word I’m familiar with is “revisionist”.
Whatever they want to call it, it is fascist bullshit.
Alter described a “restorationist” as a “political figure who operates on the politics of nostalgia”.
Does anyone else use it that way? Or is he coining a new meaning?
Re the proposed “National Garden of American Heroes”, you may submit applications to make statues of a selection from the list provided here:
From just a quick look:
- Muhammad Ali - avoided fighting in Vietnam by standing up for his woke principles of DEI, not claiming bone spurs
- Louis Armstrong, Neil Armstrong - both included, presumably in case Donald gets the two confused
- John James Audubon - immigrant from Haiti, and we all know what that means!
- Alexander Graham Bell - Scots and Canadian and worked with people with disabilities; we all know how much that Venn diagram loves Trump
- Ingrid Bergman - Swedish actress. I mean, 100% Swedish. Are you even trying to pick American heroes?
- Johnny Cash - the man who wore black out of empathy for the poor and incarcerated. Probably wouldn’t even piss on Trump if he was on fire.
- Christopher Columbus - I thought Trump was one of those who insisted on “America” meaning only the United States of America. Which Columbus was not born in, naturalized in, lived in or ever even visited. Or does Trump think that in 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue and landed in Palm Beach to be welcomed by Paul Bunyan and George Washington saying “50% off all mattresses all weekend!”?
JJA was rather racist.
