About who was in charge back then...
Trump ignored the growing controversy while running a campaign style rally in Louisville, Kentucky, where he hit well-used talking points from his 2016 run and sought to rally Republicans to his cause. Trump praised an array of Republican leaders, including Sens. Mitch McConnell and Rand Paul, and also noted that Republicans collectively had the most power as a party since the 1920s.
Yes sirree everybody - We control all the reins of power JUST LIKE IN 1929!

but it's no comfort when you're a student of history who realizes "here" has usually gotten a lot of us killed through war, disease, hunger, and general neglect.
That this particular dumb bastard is ignorant of history comes as no surprise, since he seems to be ignorant of everything else, as well.

Expect it to happen again because we're right back to the 1921-1933 years.
