The clues would not have met “the standards of the museum in terms of appearance, placement, time frame and overall presentation,” said Smithsonian.
The clues would not have fit other parts of the exhibition and had blocked the view of objects exhibited in a showcase. “For these reasons” the information was removed. “We were not asked by any government or other state representatives to remove content from the exhibition,” it said.
The “Washington Post” reported on Friday that the National Museum of American History had removed indications of the former office of office against Trump from its exhibition. This was done in the context of a substantive review in which Smithsonian had consented to pressure from the White House.
According to the report, the museum currently says that only three presidents were “seriously faced with a deduction in US history”. The Democrats Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton and the Republican Richard Nixon, who resigned in 1974, are mentioned before he could be removed from the office.
Trump is the only president who was confronted with two office ceremony (“impeachment”). He survived them during his first term (2017 to 2021) because the republicans who were loyal to him, smashed the procedures in the Senate.
Since he took office again in January, Trump has been going hard against cultural institutions and their left ideology according to his presentation. In March he signed a decree to make the 20 National Museums of Smithsonian again the “symbol of inspiration and American size” and “remove inappropriate ideologies”. He commissioned Vice President JD Vance.
