Trump Ties Andrew Johnson as Most Racist President
July 16, 2019 at 9:27 am EDT By Taegan Goddard
Presidential historian Jon Meacham told MSNBC that President Trump’s attacks against four minority lawmakers placed him with Andrew Johnson as the “most racist president in American history.”
Said Meacham: “What the president’s done here is yet again, because I think he did it after Charlottesville, and I think he did it frankly when he was pushing the birther lie about president Obama, is he has joined Andrew Johnson as the most racist president in American history.”
