Public school textbooks are now loaded with leftist gobbledygook trash. It’s been that way for some time, but lately, especially after the epic victory of Donald Trump in 2016, this bias now screams out from every page.

Public school textbooks are now loaded with leftist gobbledygook trash. It’s been that way for some time, but lately, especially after the epic victory of Donald Trump in 2016, this bias now screams out from every page.
A new Advanced Placement American History textbook is raising red flags because of its anti-Trump language, and its suggestion that Trump supporters are all racist.
By the People: A History of the United States is the latest edition of a Pearson Education history book that could be made available to high school students if school districts decide to use it. It is loaded with left-wing bias and outright lies about America, and the 45th President.
Tarra Snyder, a student at Rosemount High School in Minnesota, was able to take a look at a sample copy of the book that was sent to her high school history teacher and she took an photo of its material.
She told CBN News why she decided to share the image on social media.
“I know people all over the country are supporters of the conservative party and to say that they are all one-sided and they are all white, suburban and rural and they wouldn’t vote for Hillary because she was a woman, and they were nostalgic for an earlier time, I think they were completely out of line,” she said.
In the book’s final section, titled “The Angry Election of 2016,” the author, New York University Prof. James W. Fraser, compares Trump and Hillary Clinton supporters.
“Clinton’s supporters feared that the election had been determined by people who were afraid of a rapidly developing ethnic diversity of the country,” it reads. “They also worried about the mental instability of the president-elect and the anger that he and his supporters brought to the nation.”“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,” it continues.
It then went on to describe the demographics of Trump Voters.
“Trump’s supporters saw the vote as a victory for people who, like themselves, had been forgotten in a fast-changing America – a mostly older, often rural or suburban, an overwhelmingly white group,” the sample copy reads.
That is straight out of The Big Book of Libtard Cliches. Can you imagine if something similar was written about Obama voters? There would still be charges of racism, but no one on the Left seems to disagree with this kind of garbage.
Here are the facts: Donald Trump earned more minority, female, union workers, and under-30 voters than any Republican candidate in generations. His support from black voters in 2016 was DOUBLE that of John McCain in 2008. This “History” book neglects to mention any of that, describing the Trump victory as one made up of angry old white people, which is a despicable lie, and that lie is being shoved down the throats of young school students.
Trump’s job performance approval rating just hit 50 percent, and a black pastor at a White House roundtable recently declared that Donald Trump is the “most pro-black president” in recent history.
What kind of evil does it take to indoctrinate children this way using lies and racism in school textbooks?
The writer of the book, an ordained minister no less, said the purpose of the book was to focus on the lives of everyday Americans from differing “communities, times, and places,” not to divide.
“As a writer and teacher I see it as my job to put the information about history, including elections in front of students as honestly and clearly as I can. I tried to do the same for Trump vs. Clinton as I did for Adams vs. Jefferson or any other election.”
“I never want to indoctrinate but to encourage students to listen to various arguments and multiple perspectives,” he added.
“Keeping facts from students rightly makes them distrust all textbooks,” Fraser continued. “Laying out the facts as clearly as I know how and doing so in comparison to other information or facts is the best way to encourage the kind of thoughtful engagement with history that every historian should work for.”
Then why did he write such incendiary things about Donald Trump and his supporters when describing Clinton and Trump camps? Because he is a leftist, and that’s what leftists have been told to think.
