Chelsea Clinton, Hillary Clinton’s daughter, decided to weigh in on the controversy surrounding the re-emergence of Confederate statues as a political debate and compared those remembered in the statues to “Lucifer.”
She posted the message on her social media account Thursday. “The story of Lucifer—who rebelled against God—is part of many Christians’ traditions,” she said. “I’ve never been in a church with a Lucifer statue.”

Clinton was apparently trying to associate Lucifer’s rebellion with that of the rebel Confederates in an attempt to show why Confederate statues should not be allowed to remain.
Others on social media didn’t appreciate the comparison however.
Pretty sure your whole family risks immolation on entering sacred ground. https://t.co/nHBNdSJarH
