Historians Ron Chernow, Jon Meacham, and Douglas Brinkley are among signatories to the letter, alongside the likes of filmmaker Ken Burns and biographer Robert Caro.

There’s 350 million people in this country. 750 won’t fill a movie theater.

Mark these as people who will never write Trump’s bio — the best president in the past 50 years.

Trump better than Ronald Reagan? I disagree.

It’s ironic that Robert Caro’s long biography of Lyndon Johnson underscored the fact that he won election by cheating and stayed in power through the use of, or threat of blackmail. If Trump should be impeached, as Caro wishes, then Johnson should have been drawn and quartered.

“They print this stuff for no other purpose then to piss people off. I know I should be stronger and not fall for it, but I’m just pissed off today by all this BS.”

I agree but I am way beyond getting pissed off by an article. I have been pre-pissed off too many times. I am now always at a pissed off level when-ever I see something some d**b-a$$ lib has to say,let alone 750 “artists and writers”.

(I find it hard to believe any of them are historians.)

I’d like to see the whole list so I can know which authors to avoid in the future.

exactly.

Public schools began teaching the falsehood that America is an oppressor nation back in the 70's. Things from so-called historians have gotten progressively worse since then.

Reagan put Sandra Day O’Connor on the Supreme Court.

Not sure how Kavanaugh or Gorsuch will compare, but SDO was a mistake and she was appointed because she was a woman.

Not all are democrats, some are Bush Republicans which means they can not get over how badly Trump beat Jeb Bush in the primaries. And some others like Romney who can not understand they could not defeat a community organizer from south side of Chicago, while Trump defeated the smartest woman in America (in minds of liberals).

Were they 1950s or early historians, they might have some weight.
These clowns are hysterical historians - whose comments carry the weight of a NYT or CNN reporter.

Reagan appoint her. So what. He also got Rehnquist, Scalia and Kennedy on the bench.

God only knows what Mr. Peanut would have done.
