#Trump’s #glorification of the #1890s in #America displays his #dangerous #ignorance of #economics and #history.
The 1890s were a period of entrenched #WhiteSupremacy, marked by the rise of #JimCrow, widespread #RacialSegregation, and violent #Lynchings. #Racism dominated society, marginalizing #BlackAmericans and reinforcing #WhiteDominance in #politics and daily life, contradicting any Trump-glorified vision of #NationalGreatness.
