Description
In America, the Civil War not only hasn't been forgotten -- it never truly ended. Men in a picturesque Virginia street sport Confederate uniforms, waving rebel battle flags mixed with Donald Trump campaign banners. Trump has repeatedly shown sympathy for Confederate-friendly culture of the rural South, angrily opposing President Joe Biden's decision to rename US military bases previously named in honor of Confederate, pro-slavery figures. One Civil War reenactor in Lexington, Virginia, says Biden is "alienating half the country" while another says Trump's platform "aligns with ours". IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
