Donald Trump and Albert Pike?

[Evang.Benincasa]

The statue of Albert Pike was torn down during a protest. Donald Trump asked for the statue to be restored and put back up. With all statues torn down, why request this one to be restored?

Folks have peeped but within their own corners...trust me. Heard it mentioned on several podcasts and on Joe Rogan with Sam Tripoli from Tin Foil Hat Podcast and also on Nephilim Death Squad. There are PLENTY folks screaming about stuff.

Albert Pike,"Whenever people need a hero we shall supply him."

Yes. Its been mentioned numerous times on Rogan and several others that I have personally heard. There are folks out there driven with a mad desperation to point all of this out. Certain echo chambers wont hear a peep about it though.

Numerous times the restoration of Albert Pike’s statue has been mentioned? I’m not finding this information. Could you direct me to the information you have mentioned?

I believe it was mentioned at the latest time in the Jesse Wells interview. Keep in mind this is over 3 hours ar times fluid conversation that shifts multiple times and the times Ive heard it has been grouped in with other topics and not a centerpoint of discussion...but it HAS been discussed on Rogan,Nephilim Death Squad and a few others. You just gotta be there to catch it.

Brother, do you have the actual reference which I can access the restoration of the Pike statue? The above would cause me to dig through hours of podcasts to find anything concerning the Pike statue. Nephilim Death Squad? Allow me to explain Mr Rogan’s podcasts. Joe Rogan’s podcasts are designed to allow his guests to “talk.” They are allowed to take a shovel “their words” and dig a huge hole. Where Mr Rogan then either helps them out of, or pushes the dirt on top of them. In short, Joe Rogan’s podcasts are lengthy, and in my opinion messy at times. Since you said there are plenty of people speaking about Trump restoring the statue of Albert Pike. I would think you can point me to specific podcast which deals with the subject of this thread. I’m interested and I thank you in advance for anything you can show me dealing with Trump restoring the statue.
