In an interview on "Fox & Friends Weekend" with hosts Jedediah Bila, Pete Hegseth, and Griff Jenkins, the former Florida congressman advised that angry desecration of longstanding monuments to racist historical figures was not the path to take.
"The right thing is for everyone to understand those -- and George Santayana once said -- those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it," he urged.
"History is not there for you to like or dislike, Jedediah. It is there for you to learn from," he told Bila.
