"Trump is a son of Queens, a Northerner through-and-through. There’s no public record telling us when the light of the angel Jefferson Davis fell upon him and he knew that the Confederacy’s cause was his own, but it sure is now."

And not just Trump: scads of Northerners whose ancestors fought the Confederacy have now jumped on the Confederate train after the double election of the first Black president.

Stephen Robinson and Paul Waldman comment on Trump's curious attachment to a Confederacy to which he has no ties as a dyed-in-the-wool sool of Queens, New York, with recent immigrant ancestors:

"Trump’s fondness for the Confederacy has little to do with southern 'heritage' — he’s a native New Yorker who never lived below the Mason-Dixie line until he became a permanent Mar-a-Lago resident in 2020."
