This is the correct answer and how she should've responded to the question. But yet the victor gets to write the history rather it's factual or not.

The confederate States had the constitutional right to succeed from the Union.
Had their own government.
Had their own currency.
Had their own constitution.
Had their own military.

It wasn't a rouge army that tried to overthrow the United States government.

Even if its what you think is the correct answer, objectively, it is 100% not how she should have responded.

We are talking political realities here people

Folks don’t like hearing this because …

It clashes with what they’ve been taught their whole lives.

It’s right, they know it, but they don’t want to admit it least they be branded a confederate sympathizer & a raaaaaacist.
