I reviewed five of the most commonly used AP U.S. History textbooks that cover all the way through the Trump presidency.
Used every day by high school students in college-level history classes, the books all contain anti-Trump editorializing, false narratives, and employ selective editing to leave out significant stories that occurred during the Trump presidency.
The books all appear on the College Board’s list of textbooks that meet the AP Course Audit curricular requirements.
Nearly all of the textbooks claim “Russian meddling” was responsible for the 2016 election of Donald Trump, despite that narrative being debunked through multiple studies and news reports. A New York University Center for Social Media and Politics study found that Russian Twitter accounts had no measurable impact on the 2016 election. Facebook’s internal investigation also found that 56% of the $100K worth of Facebook ads purchased by Russians in 2016 were viewed on the platform after the election was over.
They also leave out all the details of how the Trump/Russia media narrative unraveled. None of them mention the phony Steele Dossier, how the FBI abused FISA (Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act) to spy on Trump, the illegal unmasking of Michael Flynn, how officials like John Brennan, James Clapper, and Rep. Adam Schiff lied to the public about Russian collusion, or the role Hillary Clinton’s campaign played in feeding false Trump/Russia stories to the press.
Many of the books also cover in depth the unproven sexual misconduct allegations against President Trump and Justice Clarence Thomas while altogether leaving out any mentions of the many similar allegations against President Bill Clinton.

And what are the “Red State” “Red Pilled” “Red Blooded” Republican states going to do about biased school texts...
I see RINO’s everywhere including the elected officials and state education bureaucracies that enable biased curriculum.
You need General Patton to break through it IMHO.
I am not surprised at all.
This is very much like what was done in NAZI Germany, Soviet Russia, Communist China, Castro’s Cuba, Chavez’s Venezuela and all totalitarian nations.
Living in a post-Constitutional United States, I fully expect this sort of ‘history’ will be the norm for the next 100 years as the totalitarian state tightens & strengthens their control. Maybe longer
All but mine.
The Fifteenth Anniversary Ed goes through 2018; currently I am writing an update to 2023 called the “Twentieth Anniversary Ed.” that will be made FREE at www.wildworldofhistory.com in PDF. I anticipate being finished with that this summer.
Price was on the Greg Kelly show. These books actually call president Trump a sexual predator and say Biden saved the economy.
Bkmk
Wow
History is written by the victors. We have lost.
Exactly. People here don’t seem to get it.
