    Not to get all history wonk, but he was wrong on so many levels.  The obvious is the fact that AJ was dead by 1860, but also that SC was ready to fire on Union troops during the Nullification Crisis under AJ.  He precipitated the crisis with the Tariff of 1832 and it was Henry Clay who ended the crisis,  not Jackson. That was what was so astoundingly stupid about Trumps statement.  

    The right had latched onto AJ because he hated the elite and the National Bank and was a populist,  but his history is far more complicated.  And Trump proved just how little he knows about so many things.

    He spelled "tuff" wrong.
    This is totally fake. I mean, he like, spelled his name right, and used correct punctuation way too much.
    Also, there are words that have more than 4 letters and more than 2 syllables.

    actually he handled that very well, he had a rat reporter trying to set him up and he shut down the rat very efficiently, he beat the reporter at his own game, I watched that clip many times and it just kept getting funnier every time.
    You realize it was Trump who brought up the surveillance issue right? And then of course when pressed by a real reporter, he literally had nothing to say to support his argument. That...is what's funny and...quite sad. You're embarrassing yourself by trying to defend this.
    like I said, he beat the reporter at his own game and refused to be lead by the nose into disaster. like him or not he handled that situation very well.
    how is asking him a follow up question to an erroneous claim he made "beating him at his own game?". he's showing he's incapable of any type of reasonable dialogue. and that he will get called on his obvious lies. that never happened to him as a private citizen. that's obvious with how he handles it.
    glad you're here to set it all straight, thank you.
    any interest in addressing the question posed?

    figure it out......

    I'm sure it never dawned on Trumpito that AJ was a stone cold slave owner.

    Indian removal was just as bad.  slavery for a wealthy southerner wasn't unusual.

    "Indian removal" or the Trail of Tears has never crossed the OF's mind.
    The football team in DC celebrates those peoples brave heritage, right?

    so was George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and quite a few other Presidents...


    George Washington rotated them back and forth from Philadelphia to Virginia when he was president (Philly was the original capital I believe) because Pennsylvania was a free state and if a slave remained in the state for a certain period of time they were released from bondage via law... so to avoid that Mr & Mrs Washington rotated them back and forth... his favorite slave, a female, actually ran away when he was President and he openly offered reward for her capture and obsessed about bringing her back... all while sitting as the 1st POTUS... just heard a fascinating historian talk about ti on the radio and I believe she wrote a book about this woman

    apparently Mrs Washington was known to be quite harsh with the slaves as well

    I thought that was a great segment by Colbert the other day. He's really not holding back at all these days. How was that a gay joke? He basically just said Trump has a mouthful of Putin's little toy soldier. It's an insult for sure.

    Lots of checks next to those Immigration plans, but not so much on the Obamacare side. I'll give whoever wrote that tiny list on a white board credit. Not easy. Should have been listed in the 100 days accomplishments.

    Right which is why I brought up Indian Removal because his role in that is very specific to him.  It's a real blight on his presidency.  You can applaud his fights with the US Bank and Nicholas Biddle, his denunciations of the "Corrupt Bargain" which he was clearly a victim, but the Trail of Tears is what his legacy shoulders.  Along with the fact that he almost precipitated the secession of SC vs being able to stop it as Trump claimed.  Idiot.
