Heh. Trump supporters are not going to like how history records their hero.

I'd venture to guess that 10 years from now you won't be able to find anyone who will admit to ever having voted for him.

The biggest fear for some candidates in the future will be having a photo dug up of him or her in a MAGA hat. It will have the same effect of old pictures surfacing today of politicians in blackface or white sheets. The proverbial kiss of death of their careers.

They are just reiterating talking points from useless leftist outlets like CNN, MSNBC, CBS, etc....

He will go down in History - as #45 out of 45, dead last. So kids will learn about him....but they won't be positive things!

Try as you may on CD or BB or anywhere else, History records stuff. Bigly.
And "history" can be skewed or distorted. Bigly.

With a source like Todd Starnes it’s hard to tell if he has a legitimate concern or he’s just grifting for listeners.

Garbage in.....

The "big deal" here is that the charge of "racism" is thrown about like the charge of "heresy!" and "witchcraft!" was in the past. The term itself has become spurious through overuse and misapplication. It's an accusation that is used to shut up debate and conversation. "Racism" in the Current Year is supposedly the absolute worse thing a person can engage in, the worst of vices. But a person can be labeled "racist" for the most innocuous things (microaggressions). The bar is lowered, then raised up again.

“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....
Word.

I wonder if any textbooks will mention support of Obama by the Communist Party USA? You remember communism, right? That ideology that left 100 million dead in the 20th century?

As long as, for equal time - they describe Obama as possibly being born in Kenya and ineligible to be president in the first place. And describe his 8 years of incompetence.

Well.... I guess you're not going to see equal time.
