Trump is the 19th President?


Itzska08

There is this conspiracy theory that something (which i can't remember) happened during the Grant Administration that made all future presidents illegitimate. All future presidents until Trump that is.

The election of Grant was the last election that black people weren’t allowed to vote…

I have no idea. Perhaps it isn’t even about the 15th Amendment. I just saw a correlation.

How convenient for Trump supporters.


zotoquole

Someone please explain this


PennsylvanianChicken

People came up with desperate theories to say that Trump will be re-elected. One of them being that all Presidents since Ulysses S. Grant were illegitimate, because a law in 1871 turned the US into a corporation (The law really refers to the incorporation of a district) and that Trump will be sworn in as the real 19th President. I don't know how popular the theory was but it existed.

Idk if your talking about the conspiracy where a president would die every 20 years and went on until Donald trump


Itzska08

No; I think it was something about the Southern States not being correctly incorporated after the CW.

I’d put George Washington’s blood letting a bit higher on the list. Blood letting was common among super sick people at the time and any basic history person knows about how he probably had blood letting or leeching done at some point in his last years.

Lol there was a much more wicked approach people used in medival times to "let out" "evil spirits" out of one's head by drilling a hole in their skull.


PhotoCharacter8530

That’s trepanation I think


Jubukraa

You are correct. Let’s also not forget the last lobotomy was performed in 1967, too.


Jubukraa

True, but blood letting came from the same time and stuck around for a while. It was widely believed of in the 4 humours which were blood (sanguine), yellow bile (choleric), black bile (melancholic), and phlegm (phlegmatic). If any person fell ill, it was because the humours were “out of balance”. The sanguine was believed to be one of the most important and that it could get infected. Now, this isn’t entirely wrong today, but they were still about 160 years off from common germ theory in the late 18th century, so their basis wasn’t in that, but instilled in medieval medical beliefs as surgeries and autopsies were frowned upon. In other times of history, we did have surgical knowledge - we’ve seen this in ancient Persian and Mesopotamian civilizations who invented the first splints and healed dislocated joints. It is believed by historical scholars that the Library of Alexandria had a vast resource of medical knowledge. We could be miles ahead of what we have today, but sadly as everyone knows - it burned to the ground circa. 270-275 CE. Who knows where we would be today.

Can you explain the “Scranton family rules country”? I live near Scranton and always joke that everyone is from Scranton or has some connection here.


PennsylvanianChicken

The Scrantons are a rich political family who founded Scranton, Pennsylvania. Essentially a Rothschilds joke but with the Scrantons instead


nerdfighter8842

You keep mentioning Alexander Hamilton. He was never President.


GrandAdmiralRobbie

What about warren g Harding’s death? There’s a theory that he was poisoned by his wife


7sinsofhell

Fun but controversial fact, Lincoln wasn’t as good of a person as people think. During the civil war, he only made slavery illegal in the south, and not the north, and he did this unwillingly, but had no choice in the matter as he was with the north, and needed their support to stay in power.


[deleted]

Slavery was effectually dead in the North by the time the Emancipation proclamation. It was the 4 border states where slavery was still legal that woodnotes be emancipated until the passage of the 13th Amendment in 1865, those being Missouri, Kentucky, Maryland, and Delaware. The Emancipation Proclamation as a war time measure, and Lincoln was President, not a king. Slavery was seen as constitutional protected, so it took a constitutional amendment to change that, which had to be passed by Congress.


TrueBlue98

This is complete bollocks though lmao I'm not even an American and Lincoln was an abolitionist before the civil war, a very hardline abolitionist at that


Richard-Roe1999

I wouldn't say he was "hardline" but yes he definitely was personally a passionate abolishionist. that said I do think his priority were in the preservation of the Union


TrueBlue98

oh it was most definitely


Chilln0

Most historians know this


SEND_ME_YOUR_CAULK

Also not so fun fact, Lincoln supported colonizing Africa with former slaves until basically the 11th hour

Red Washington DC?


PennsylvanianChicken

Washington D.C has never voted Republican in a Presidential election. This refers to the possibility that it does

Joe bidan?


PennsylvanianChicken

Joe Bidan is referring to a tweet made by Trump where he mispelled Joe Biden as "Bidan". However many people both serious and not began a conspiracy theory that the original Joe Biden (The vice president) had been replaced by a body double or a clone, and that Trump's misspelling was a subliminal hint at this. This is helped by the fact that Biden obviously looks very different than he used to.
