His platform was extremely moderate, and he has done nothing within a million miles of racism against any race other than his own. It's just more stupid lies.

That's a fact...that's not fake news. Many Trump critics did and do wonder about his mental stability.
The "bringing anger" part, though, is a stupid lie. And the "afraid" of diversity part is stupid projection; no one is "afraid"; people just don't want it because it is harmful.

Prove that none of that is incorrect. Opinion is not fact. What is your source? CNN? MSNBC? SNL?

There are more racist leftist Dems than there are racist conservatives.

I'd dare to say that those who are racists don't vote for Trump from either side.

Someone could create a textbook that says Barry visits men in bath houses and snorts(or however you use it) cocaine and that Hellary molests children and that Bill rapes young girls/women and that Joe fondles children.

Do you realize that there is no ethics in mainstream news reporting nor in the teaching of our children in public schools?

There is a clear agenda to bring down a President who holds the information that would expose all of the real crimes done by the admins before him. They play dirty and every crime that they accuse President Trump of is their own crimes being exposed by themselves.

They really cant do that because they supported the same policies when it was their guy pulling the levers.
Politics is funny that way.

I didn't see any sort of statements of absolute fact or diagnoses being made.

The title of this thread is quite misleading.
Exactly! Everyting in quotes before the statement, "In other words, Advanced Placement students are going to be taught..." is accurate.

Because Pearson has close to a monopoly on school textbooks. This country has stopped enforcing antitrust laws.

Why? Can you cite one reason?

Explain to me how they make classes like calculus, physics, chemistry, or biology into propagandized indoctrination? I must be missing something.

Descriptions of Trump as mentally unstable and labeling many of his supporters racist, while likely accurate, are subjective. Even if most people were to agree, these items are still not proven (until Trump was ever to be clinically determined as such). History books should for the most part be objective and stick to the facts.

“Most thought that Trump was too extreme a candidate to win the nomination, but his extremism, his anti-establishment rhetoric, and, some said, his not very hidden racism connected with a significant number of primary voters,” the author wrote....

Hey while we are at it let's teach kids that the founding fathers were just angry old rich men who didn't want to pay their fair share in taxes.

The author can also add that now in the enlightened era there is a AOC that will bring social justice for those greedy founders rebellion.
