He was also a moron who got murdered by an anarchist at the height of popularity of anarchism in America because he thought it would be fun to head to a world’s fair-type event and stand in a tent and let people line up to shake his hand. He didn’t even have security checks. And this was after Lincoln was killed in a theater and Grant was shot in a train station. So Leon Czolgosz just pretended his hand was injured, wrapped the gun inside the bandage, walked up to McKinley and shot him point blank in the chest.

Fun fact: someone correct me if I’m wrong (it’s the Internet, I really don’t need to ask), but as I understand it, Frank Baum’s “The Wizard of Oz” was some sort of allegory/statement in support of the silver standard. Dorothy’s ruby slippers were only that color for the benefit of film, and in the book, they are silver, symbolizing silver as the way to fix all the problems. I don’t remember what the other things symbolized. But since “Wicked” is popular at the moment, I thought I’d share.

Protective tariffs are the opposite of what Trump wants though. He’s just using them as an offensive tool to threaten everyone.
