My two favorite historians are Victor Davis Hanson and Herodotus. Neither of them signed.

“Hundreds of historians including the author whose biography of Alexander Hamilton inspired the hit musical “

This whole article started off the deep end.

they need to understand that what we’ve been doing “historically “ hasn’t been working. That’s why we have President Donald J Trump
Dunderheads, all of them

750 political bigots attempt to prostitute their university degrees in a phony attempt to gain credibility for the infantile emotion based political opinions

“Hundreds of historians including the author whose biography of Alexander Hamilton inspired the hit musical...”

That’s when I looked in the byline to see if this was from the Babylon Bee. Every day it is getting more difficult to tell.

Here in Seattle there was the real article about a city homeless meeting/dinner that had a time set aside for cultural engagement or something. The director hired a stripper to dance, strip and “interact” with others at the meeting.

As an aside, at the end of the article it mentions that the stripper was a drag queen.

Just like in the UK, the lefties ( now just out and out stininking COMMIES! )just keep on going more and more and MORE lefty. They were taught a stupendous lesson, in the UK, last week and SHALL be taught the same kind of lesson come next November, here, in 2020!

Those people NEVER do learn though.

I am presently reading a 4-volume biography of George Washington that was written in the 1960’s. I try to stay away from recent authors unless it is someone I trust, like Victor Davis Hanson.

I remember when the 400 historians had the petition to not impeach Clinton. One of them was on a radio show. I called and called him out; listing Filegate, Chinagate, Travelgate and Juanita Broaddrick. One of the chief signers was the famous historian Stephen Ambrose. I can't remember which one this clown was but he was stuttering for an answer when I hit him with "Where is Stephen Ambrose? Do you know?" He didn't so I told him "He's at the White House right now getting a medal from President Clinton!"

Both the host and historian were speechless, the host said something like "well..." and they went to commercial and changed the subject.

PC Revisionists. Academia - especially liberal arts - is riddled with Socialists and Communists.

Rehnquist was nominated by Nixon, not Reagan. Scalia was great, Kennedy disappointed on a few big cases.

Like ‘Scientist’, “historian” is a title which ANYONE can label themselves with.

It is also NO automatic classification of being ‘good’ or ‘real’ or ‘honest’

.

So many so-called historians are absolute liberal losers. They hide behind their degrees and their positions in universities to express their personal views. I’d say most of them are nitwits.
