So Trump said Thomas Jefferson the "principal writer" US Constitution when in fact, Jefferson wrote the Declaration Of Independence but what are facts.

Trump has never had the firmest grasp of U.S. history, often getting key details wrong. In 2019, for example, he praised the Continental Army for taking over airports during the American Revolution.

James Madison was the principal writer of the constitution, fyi

also, Jeffersons signature is not on the constitution, because he was in Europe at the time.

To be fair to Trump, US history, particularly the founding fathers, are incredibly fucking boring.

And you'd think that lacking basic knowledge about this country that Republicans claim to love would deter them from worshipping him, but it's just going to reinforce the stupid.

I dunno, I see it as a hopeful sign in a way. Didn't you notice? Trump gave someone else principal credit for writing the Constitution.

Tbf, it is only the history of your country you are ignoring and that makes you exactly like Trump. I believe Red Foreman had a name for your type, but apparently using it is an insult now and would get me modded. Which is weird because that means mods want to support MAWA. That's Make America Worse Again for MAGA followers because I know it would be extremely hard for you guys to figure that one out.

Nah I don't think they would. I think they were very progressive, else they wouldn't have fought to free us from the rule of England.

no they really werent as enlightened as their idolized historical representations

they mostly wanted freedom from the monarchy so that they could rule over others as wealthy noblemen not accountable to anyone

Most history tests are focused mostly on dates and names and not on concepts and consequences, which makes them inherently much more difficult than they ought to be while simultaneously being largely useless. Rote memorization of historical minutia is of little value, while also being quite challenging because insignificant details are hard to remember without attaching them to meaningful context. That's not the "learn from your history" people talk about; learning from your history means trying to understand why things happened and what impact those things had in the long run.

The casual person on the street knows nothing about history. This has been proven by quizzing people on late night talk shows. But its just a gag and we can laugh about it, right?
