Donald Trump grins at text which reads,
“It was miraculous. It was almost no trick at all, he saw, to turn vice into virtue and slander into truth, impotence into abstinence, arrogance into humility, plunder into philanthropy, thievery into honor, blasphemy into wisdom, brutality into patriotism, and sadism into justice. Anybody could do it; it required no brains at all. It merely required no character.”
A passage from the novel Catch 22.

"The Post-Reconstruction era, roughly from the 1870s to the 1960s, saw the dismantling of Reconstruction policies, the rise of Jim Crow laws, and the resurgence of white supremacy in the South, leading to the disenfranchisement of African Americans and a period of racial segregation and violence."
