about racism and attempting to turn it around.
A lot of people, myself included, see teaching a child to embrace racism/white supremacy as child abuse.
He's attacking Zinn because of the history told from the view of the victims of racism and white supremacy.
Trump wants to promote an all things done to other people by white people over the course of time were good things. American Exceptionalism says even if those things were bad, they were still good because America was only trying to do good - for white people, of course. But Trump and his mental ilk leave that last part out. This stems from the idea in American Exceptionalism that America is superior to other nations because of its history and its mission to spread American style democracy to the world. Patriotic proselytizing, so to speak.
Trump and his mental ilk think everyone else - non-white people - should be grateful because white people "allow" them to live in America. So they need to adapt to the white people way of thinking and acting and shut the fuck up about the abuses, genocide, and discrimination.
