He must not since his statue is being taken down. Let’s just say he was respected at one point probably due to fear but when Lincoln came along, people hated him I believe since he was from the south and the south loved to keep their slaves and severely punished them if they tried to escape or messed up something. I am not 100% percent certain that’s just what I think. I don’t think it is justified since he kept slaves as prisoners and physically punished them and treated them as animals. My personal opinion ‍♀️

Answer:

The turning point of the Civil War was the Battle of Gettysburg, fought near Gettysburg , Pennsylvania , on July 1-3, 1863. The Northern Virginia army, commanded by Confederate chief commander, Gen. Robert E. Lee, faced the Union Army of the Potomac headed by Gen. George G. Meade. After having smashed Union forces at Chancellorsville, Lee invaded the North for a second time. The battle lasted 3 days of ferocious, bloody and brutal fight. The most famous part of the battle is the charge of Gen. George Pickett´s  division with 15,000 men against the lines of the Northern infantry, an action that ended in utter failure. The stakes were high: Lee had invaded Northern territory and wanted to advance to Washington to force the Abraham Lincoln´s government to negotiate peace in disadvantage. His defeat not only forced him to go back to Virginia: the South was never able to threaten the North again and since that moment on, fought only on the defensive. Casualties mounted to 51,000 on both sides, the bloodiest single battle of the war.

The lend-lease program provided for military aid to any country whose defense was vital to the security of the United States. The plan thus gave Roosevelt the power to lend arms to Britain with the understanding that, after the war, America would be paid back in kind.

During World War II, the United States began to provide significant military supplies and other assistance to the Allies in September 1940, even though the United States did not enter the war until December 1941.
